Looking to buy a car and I need some advice.

I'm a big fan of the AWD and it seems like there are a fair amount available used. It seems like it was a pretty popular "executive's second car" so I've seen a few with very low mileage for the year.

Excellent recommendation. Those cars are rock solid. Not a fan of the Infinti design language as it tends to date itself very fast, but if you like the car in 2017, and it gives you what you want, you cant go wrong. Nissan V6's are phenomenally reliable. Probably the best in the business.

Thank you for all the advice.

I was actually looking at an Audi A4 and the Mercedes C-Class as the two likeliest options, so the fact that those were two of the more recommended options is good.

Four or five years ago when I was looking and ended up with my first Infiniti the A4 was right at the top of my list. For whatever reason, it seemed like there were never any decent ones that came up on kijiji during my search. It seemed like people bought them, drove them to the ground and then wanted top dollar. Of course, it's all about timing and this is totally just anecdotal!

Sorry guys, I should have used the multi-quote function but I missed pylon's post the first time!

I definitely agree. For me, I actually prefer the older generation G series to the new model Q series (except the Q coupe, it is sexy as hell!) I think they missed the mark on the new models as far as style as I do think they already have aged and they've only been out for a couple years. Long story short, I was in a bit of a pinch when I bought my G coupe and I had seriously looked at just buyers big a brand new Q sedan (my wife would not have been on board with a new Q coupe). I just could not get over the styling on the new Qs and they just didn't feel right.

Anyone have a 2016/2017 Camaro? What are your opinions on the 1LT model?
