Infiniti owner here, too.

I ascribe to the approach that you find a low mileage, high line luxury sedan from the top imports (alphabetically; Acura, Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Merc)

I bought a 3 year old Q in 2005 for almost exactly half the original sticker. With only 17k miles on it, I was still under the orig warranty for a whole additional year. I did add a manufacturer extended, $0 deductible warranty to it, and I essentially had a bumper-to-bumper warranty for 5 years of ownership.

Long ago paid for, at about the same cost as a loaded Accord or Camry, I’ve enjoyed driving a car I don’t see often, and that performs so very well at so many things. It’s an ‘02, and has features on it that only now are making it to mid-line cars. Of course, those cars don’t have my 340 horsepower.

A gently used M37 would will certainly be one of the cars I would consider were I in the market.

Side note: Do you know about freshalloy.com? Nissan/Infiniti forum with lots of fellow owners. Great resource for commiserating about ownership experiences for these cars.

That is what we do. In 2007 we pd cash for an 06 Jag S Type with 17k miles on it. It was less than 1/2 the price of a new one. Only way to buy luxury cars.
