2005 Infiniti Q45 New Car Buyer's Guide

What's New for the 2005 Infiniti Q45?
The 2005 Infiniti Q45 benefits from several minor changes that add up to a more attractive package. Starting from the outside in, Infiniti's flagship gets a makeover in the form of new front and rear fascias, hood, grille and tail lamps illuminated by LED bulbs. Newly lustrous materials can be found inside, including a new gauge cluster, genuine metal knobs and additional chrome accents. Transmission revisions deliver faster downshifts, while suspension tuning has been tightened for sportier handling.

Advantages of the 2005 Infiniti Q45:

• Extremely comfortable seats front and rear
• Lots of standard goodies
• Silent cabin
• Seamless V8 engine

Objections to the 2005 Infiniti Q45:

• Not quite super luxury; not quite sport luxury – it gets lost in the crowd
• Fussy stereo, climate and navigation system ergonomics

Editor's Advice:
Make no mistake, the 2005 Infiniti Q45 is a very good car, but when you're playing in the big leagues without established brand cache, you've got to be more than just good – you've got to be over-the-top, magnificent, brilliant. The 2005 Infiniti Q45 is no automotive incarnation of Albert Einstein. Still, it would make a fine choice for a luxurious and economical certified pre-owned vehicle.
