This car is so pitifully outdated on the inside, but man do I have a soft spot for it. How can you look at the exterior styling or the wonderful engine in it and not?

Why is everybody complaining about the interior lol dodge has been doing it for decades and y’all don’t complain about that

Good review. I've owned two Red Sports, a 2018 and presently a 2021. The first upgrade you do is the tires and it drives/rides like a totally different car. The stock runflats suck. Horrible traction and very bad in wet weather I hyrdoplaned in the rain going 50mph and knew I had to get rid of them after 8k miles. I put some Michelin A/S3+ tires on and it handles much better. The RS is one of the best bangs for your buck for sure. Here are my thoughts: It's fast and kind of a sleeper. People are surprised sometimes when they see tail lights after trying to run you. Bose system is great. I wish the car had better brakes and cooled seats. Transmission is a little sluggish sometimes. I do like the dual screens and plenty of room in it for 5 people, which I like. People in their RT's and 392's and other folks think they're faster, but they're not, lol. Overall its a great car that has some quirks.

MSRP is $57, 950 yet the interior looks like it's from the 2010s. You would have to be insane if you buy a Q50 over a Genesis G70 3.3T, IS 500 or any of the German competition.

Since most want to harp on the interior, I just though id say for a 10 year old interior. It really doesn't look that old! no ugly lines or materials and it still gives you the info you need. A refresh is needed but this interior, and exterior design has aged perfectly IMO

[ks-bguk]

One of the best looking cars in this league. Love the engine too. Interior is fine for me and love the dual screens.

[SimplyTvoo]

Love the fact I just bought a q60rs and I still watch reviews and videos about the car as if I don’t have it

[babachicken]

Idk why people hate on the interior. its functionally great, doesnt have the stupid tablet look, the materials are high quality. They hit cash in 2014 with a great interior design and it really hasnt had to change. Keep hating on it, it only keeps the car cheaper

[braveheart]

People like to hate on interior, which I can see but this car relies on its insane engine. Reliable, Insane power, best tuning potential for enthusiast.

[barxweight]

I wish infiniti kept a manual option for the Q’s

[odinxrk]

Beautiful interior, beautiful exterior, I'm more of a fan of the Q60 but this one is great too, but DAMN those interior details. Absolutely GORGEOUS

[IKhanNot]

These things depreciate like a rock so pick up one used. It's actually a great value there as a sporty-ish daily driver.

[TheDarkmagic]

Been the same car since 2016, but motor is pretty tunable. Racebox hit 800whp and 9s 1/4 mile on a stock motor and stock transmissions

[erikjohannsen]

You can really tell, he was not enthused or excited about this! hahaha

[estebanbonilla]

the speaker system in these cars single handedly convinces me

[gartblaum]

I prefer the interior to most of the newest ones, it has a dedicated central control specially designed for THIS vehicle, no more iPad-glued-to-the dash feeling that everyone is doing to the interiors nowadays

[Shawn]

This car deserves so much better. Amazing engine and styling. Interior and transmission needs updating

[dianasabatino]

I have 2011 g37 loaded every upgrade.. bigger tires
Its been an amazing car . Still looks like & drives new love the performance ..solid
280k+ miles
Would definitely buy another Infiniti ...

[ohhsoofreeman]

Tbh, if they took the 6-speed manual that they put in the new Z, they'd have a customer in me for sure. I'm actually not all too bothered by the aging interior.

[whitey]

people are complaining about the interior but i actually love it. I dont care how many years its been.
