2000 Infiniti G20 G20t review from North America
"A stylish, reliable, and practical car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The antenna needed to have its mast replaced. The sunroof leaks during high pressure car washes. A front bushing squeaks when going over speed bumps.
General comments?
When I bought the G20t I was looking for a gas efficient, automatic transmission, comfortable, stylish, four door, reliable car. This car encapsulates all of that criteria.
The car is not very fast (acceleration to 60 is about 10 sec.) but the car is still responsive enough to keep me out of trouble when merging, making left turns and passing.
The turning radius is horrible. My freind's 1998 Maxima (a full size car) turns much better than this car. This turning radius makes parking lot maneuvers a real challenge.
The headlights on dark highway roads are not up to par either. When traveling at 60 mph with cars coming the other way I would like to see a bit farther out ahead of me.
The handling is good and the interior appointments are nice. All in all I like this car. I make a lot of 5 hour trips in this car and I am always comfortable during them.
