Review: 2006 Infiniti M45

To the list of superior automobiles to own and drive, go ahead and add the 2006 Infiniti M45.

It competes in a pricey group of full-sized luxury sedans that are just one notch below the finest production cars in the world. For prices that run in the $40,000 to $60,000 range you can look forward to several years of joyous driving behind the wheel of, say, an Audi A6, BMW 5-Series, Mercedes E-Class, or Lexus GS and LS.

The M45 is a handsome, but not striking car. The lovely rear C-pillar is nearly identical to the Lexus GS and the masculine front fenders look like they came right off the Mercedes E-Class. Neither of those are bad things. This car does a nice job of being elegant, without becoming gaudy.

I was a huge BMW fan and never imagined when I could afford one that I would consider anything else. I test drove the BMW 545i, Lexus GS430 and Infiniti M45 Sport. The Infiniti won hands down. It was by far the most comfortable and had the best balance of Luxury and performance. The BMW drives great but it is painful to look at! Inside and out the styling of BMW has lost me!! The Lexus was a very nice car but felt like there was a layer of Novocain between myself and the car plus the brakes were impossible to modulate at low speeds. The M45 sold me right away. I waited nearly 4 months to get mine and know I made the right decision. I get many people asking me on the street how I like it and I always say that I love it and driving it is addicting! Say what you will about its Nissan heritage but I know that unlike some of its competition it won’t see the service bay for anything other than maintenance. Way to go Infiniti!!! I can’t wait for a line of cars from Infiniti like AMG to Mercedes!! I will put my deposit now like the SRT8, BMW M series and Audi S. That would only make a great car awesome!!!
