1996 Infiniti I30 review from North America
"I love my baby, it definitely was all I wanted and more"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to get new front calipers (less than $200), new tires within first year (about $250). Just recently I had to CV joints replaced that coast $220. Right rear window regulator needs to be replaced, window does not go up and down.
General comments?
Although I had to get some things fixed it wasn't anything major or unexpected in a car of that age and wear. I had the car one week short of 3 years and I rode that thing like an SUV. I think it was a great car. It was my first and I purchased it myself. Between Phila, DC, and Miami city driving, plus long road trips I put this car to the test. With regular oil changes and tune ups this car proved to be able to handle everything. Since it's an Infiniti the parts are more expensive, but I rarely had to purchase anything besides mentioned above. Still drove smoother than others newer cars. Luxury at its most economical and logical.
