Welcome to the forum! I'm new here myself. Glad you've decided to join the G family. Everyone around here seems to be very helpful.

What color G did you decide on?

 

White...not sure what the official color is.

 

Yep, exhaust, cosmetic, suspension are great mods especially replacing the fugly stock rims. Takes a lot of coin to improve engine output any more than 20hp. Look forward to seeing your new ride

 

Did you get it today?

 

Yup! Picked it up at noon.

There are a couple of problems...

1. There's a pinhead sized rust spot on the trunk right below the Infiniti badge
2. The wheels are bubbling - living in upstate ny apparently voids the warranty on these issues. They said they would swap them with the next lease turn in. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks.
3. The CD player wont let me put a CD in. It says to eject the disc and I try to, but nothing happens.

So here she is!

 

Gorgeous! Good color choice!!!

 

Mod number 1....

Dealership license plate frame removal.


Next up...

window tint.

 

Thank you. I am really happy with the color. I was looking for black or that dark greyish blue color, but when I saw this I fell in love with the white!

 

Very nice!

 

Nice, congrats, looks sharp!

That was my first two mods, too lol.

 

Okay....car is great, but the head lights wont turn on.

The fogs work, everything else works, but high beams and regular head lamps do nothing.


Thoughts?

 

Well that was a fun way to spend the last couple hours. Trying to find the headlight fuses in this bad boy isn't easy. Finally found them next to the battery and both 15 amp fuses were blown.

This is why I usually buy American. These fuses arent anything I have laying around the garage. Good thing there was a single spare 15 and a 20. Looks like i'll be adding to my list of complaints for mondays visit to the dealership...

 

Sorry to hear, glad you found em though.

 

Congrats. I hope you enjoy it. Im on my second G. They really are an excellent car.

I would be a little bit concerned that the dealership sold you a certified vehicle with headlights that don't work and bad tires. Thats not cool. The other little things shouldn't have been overlooked either.

 

First off, WELCOME !!

Second, whaaaaaat . . . ?? You bought a car from an Infiniti dealership and the headlights didn't work!! Man, I'd march right back there with all the righteous indigence that I could muster and demand they make sure every damn thing on that car worked!! That's totally unacceptable, and they'd know it too.

Additionally, I'd be hitting them up to address the rust. IIRC, there is a 7 year rust/corrosion warranty on the car, but IDK exactly what all it covers. You have to be on your toes a bit here; a lot of dealers will allow a customer to drive off in a car that needs work and never tell them about it, but if you call them on it they often will act surprised but then come through on it (since they probably knew good and well about it). Good luck!

Oh, and btw, they really are great cars. I know your used to the V8 and all, but the torque curve of the VQ HR engine is sublime; just a real pleasure to drive.
