"A week behind the wheel of a 2010 Infiniti G37x Coupe reminded me of how this Japanese automaker is pretty serious about playing in the Teutonic sandbox, and more specifically, decoding the benchmark BMW 3 Series," says reviewer, Peter Bleakney.

As it’s based on the Nissan Armada/Titan truck platform, the luxurious Infiniti QX56 has similar problem areas, writes Contributing Editor, Chris Chase. These include troublesome brake rotors, differential problems, and electronics glitches. Chris tells you what to look out for.

Coming to Canada in July, the "elegant and sumptuous" 2011 Infiniti QX56 SUV features a reworked 5.6-litre V8 with 25 per cent more horsepower and improved fuel economy, a new seven-speed automatic transmission, and a unique body motion control system.

The M35/45 looks like one of the more predictably reliable cars in its class, even faring better than the Lexus GS in long-term reliability, says Contributing Editor, Chris Chase. "My only advice would be to avoid the trouble-prone navigation option."

The Infiniti FX35 puts the "sporty" in SUV, says Assistant Editor Jil McIntosh, who reports that its handling is as close to a sports car as you’ll get. Don’t expect happy rear-seat passengers in those cramped quarters, though, she warns.

With new styling, more power, better fuel economy, and a host of technology and comfort features, Infiniti’s new M37 V6 and M56 V8 sedans hope to break out of their relative obscurity in the highly competitive mid-size luxury sedan field.
