Nissan is a sad place right this minute.

my boss was complaining about the “buzzy” toyota 4 cylinder he got as a courtesy car while his v6 lexus was in the shop.  people i think notice the feeling of torque (which gives them confidence that the car will be fast enough to pass and merge) and luxury buyers definitely notice smoothness of the engine - if you

I rented a Q50 back in April and that was the biggest thing to me. The car felt great — competent chassis, nice twin turbo V6 powertrain, comfy seats and... infotainment from 2009. Infiniti, why? The thing starts at $48k and doesn’t come with features you can find on a 2.0T Touring Accord for $36K. No radar cruise, no

It’s one of the main reasons I got rid of mine. Its. So. Laggy. Nevermind that it’s confusing and overcomplicated. Infiniti’s always look better on paper but the actual use and execution is sup par. I had a 2015 Q50S and later on got a 2015 BMW 528xi. If you compared a line by line spec sheet of features the Infiniti

I still don’t know why manufacturers insist on adding their own nav/streaming apps/etc. Just use Carplay or android auto. If a customer REALLY doesn’t have a smartphone, include a $50 android tablet that they can use for it. Then the auto manufacturer isn’t responsible for maintaining firmware and all that nonsense.

That plus the atrocious steering are the 2 things that keep me from even CONSIDERING an Infiniti.

Yep, spot-on. My mother-in-law has this car, a 2014 which I believe was the first year for them. Compared to my wife’s 2016 Outback it’s a real joke inside. Hell, I get into my pair of 2004 Mazdas and find them more appealing to sit in.

Wow! I never realized they were this bad!

Please don’t compare this thing to a Crown Victoria. It’s insulting the Crown Victoria

Seriously. I rented a Q50 the other day and couldn’t believe how...meh... It was. Didn’t do anything particularly well. Tech was a joke. Not sure who the target buyer is anymore.

Who pays? In my country it would be the gov’t, so, taxpayers and corporations in effect.

FUN FACT!: In the NA Miatas the door is actually used to reinforce the chassis. In fact the aftermarket even makes this cool thing to help with that. (Below)

Meanwhile in conservative states:

Yeah, tell me how conservatives don’t try to control people. Really, I need a laugh today.

We don’t, though. I mean, there’s literally a known rapist on the Supreme Court.

Because rape isn’t sensitive and can be far worse/frequent than what’s depicted in this movie....

Here’s a take that’s apparently hot, but shouldn’t be:

Please, please, please, please, let this happen. The gig economy is crushing people.

what does that have to do with anything?  Applaud the fact that some people set and live within a budget.  You gave a silly take. 

Some guy got mad at me in one and tried to chase me down and couldn’t catch up. I drive a Crosstrek too
