1994 Infiniti G

Superb all-around package

By Jerry (NM) on Wednesday, November 09, 2011

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 143,000

Pros: "Comfortable, reliable, attractive"

Cons: "Low power-to-weight ratio"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Mine is a 1995 G20t with a 5-speed manual. I'm the second owner. Bought it with about 45K miles on it and have been driving it for 12 years. Over these many years the problems have been relatively minor and occasional: power steering pump, valve cover gaskets, CV boot, a motor mount, a brake caliper,. Recently , I replaced the clutch. It's never let me down on the open road. Comfortable, quiet and relatively roomy for a car in this class, it has supportive bucket seats up front. All around visibility is excellent. Fit and finish are tops. My only reservation is that he car is somewhat underpowered. The 2 liter, DOHC engine is excellent (I get about 28 mpg around town), but the car is a bit heavy and that takes a toll on performance."

Love this car

By NSS (Boulder, CO) on Wednesday, August 25, 2010

"I've had this car since 1997 (2nd owner) and I still get 32MPG (on a manual trans). This is a great car with plenty of power and creature comforts. For the price, you would be hard pressed to get a luxury brand of this caliber."

Best Vehicle Ever!

By ExAccordLover (Boston, MA) on Saturday, July 24, 2010

"Of all the vehicles I have owned, and their have been many, this is by far the best value, most reliable and simply the most fun to drive I have ever had. Rock solid in every way. If you can find a used G 20, buy it immediately."

Solid - performer w/good gas mileage

By irondon (Cleveland, OH) on Monday, July 05, 2010

"A little bit of a dog when it comes to acceleration - but what do you expect for a 2 liter w/manual. Has decent amenities. We bought it with about 100k miles on it almost 3 years ago and have put 30k more miles on it with no issues or repairs other than routine maintenance. A real good second car for commuting to work. Get about 30 mpg."

Last of the petrol cars

By future leaf driver (Seattle, WA) on Monday, March 15, 2010

"I've loved my car since I bought it at 3 years of age. It's a 1992 pearl white w/ manual trans, tan cloth interior, & moonroof. Added underdrive pullies & always use mobil 1 engine oil. 32MPG average, 42MPG highway. Being a car guy that I am. It's been a great car that never bores me & never needs fixing. I will probably keep it forever! The only new cars I like are the 100% electric drive cars. A Nissan leaf for the city & the G20 for the highway, brilliant."

Good solid affordable transportation

By Robin (pdx) on Wednesday, September 02, 2009

"I've owned 4 infiniti's, 3 of them g20's. It simply is a marvelous piece of honest to god engineering and ghood thinking. The only thing it lacks is cup holders and a folding rear seat."
