Scotty you might want to go back and re-edit this video, the pics and information is incorrect.
Why are they going to beat Tesla again? I seemed to have missed it!
Scotty I'd like you to talk about the scion tc 2011+ eb60 input shaft transmission problem I didnt know when I bought it and I feel like people should have information about this problem.
Hey, Scotty. Just wanted to mention that it is actually an FX35, not a 34. I just felt I needed to mention that as my family has 2 and we love them.
Hey Scotty my brother has a 2004 taurus se heat went out two days ago engine temp just went to hot today thermostat radiator water pump and thoughts not sure why its getting so hot Its also winter up here bye. Engine also sounds a bit ruff some chattering there and the engine has a whirring down sound when car turns off. Very puzzled thing goin on here. New engine as well not sure what other parts were replaced the car seems to have never ending occurance of problems. Is it a money pit car has 230,000 miles on and counting. my brother doesn't like driving however his money is tight should he invest in a different car.
Please make a video on synthetic fuel‼️
Nissan; What can we name our line of cars that are endless money pits?.... Infinity!
I had a fx45 '05 in 08 and that car had the cinnamon int we took the kids everywhere in that car.
My uncle had a 1996 Infiniti G20 it wasn’t in this documentary though.
I never known any of any QX4 to get a V8 let alone the 4.0 😕
Why don’t Japanese luxury actually look like luxury cars?
I have a 2007 G35 Coupe with 6 speed manual and rear wheel steering. Real cars back then.
7:32 Also Scotty u said FX34 but is was called a FX35 because of the VQ35DE 3.5 liter V6 they put under the hood...churning out 280Hp
QX 4 didn't have a v8 and it was made in Japan. 1st model had a 3.3 liter then a revised model (2000) had the 3.5liter and they had a 4speed auto.
I love Nissan/Infiniti
What is the fx34 lol never heard of it but I have heard of the fx35 and fx37 😂
OMG 0:45 My yellow '77 Corolla is back! Best car I ever owned, mostly because it was my first.
To Infiniti, and beyond????
i have a I30t i love my car everything but the gas mileage
Actually Scotty I think you missed one partner in the Japanese car maker group. Mazda planned a new division by the name of Amati but unfortunately finances caused them to end up only building one car model and they ended up marketing it as a Mazda. The car in question was the Mazda Millenia. It's a shame Mazda ran into hard times because it would be interesting to see what models they launched 20 years later.
Now all Mazda’s are premium
imake u dis like
beter nissan mark then infiniti
howmach did thay pay to u
don:'t don't this mark wegetin some problem
6:43 Scotty the Qx4 had a 3.5L V6** 🤦♂️ The QX56 is what had the 5.6L V8 and 9,000 lbs of towing capacity, you switched em up.. Also at 7:48 It’s called the QX56 and was released in 2005.

Tsk-tsk. Pretty shoddy research on your part Scotty. For example, you describe the 1997 QX4 as having being built in the US and having a 5.6L V-8 engine. The QX models were all built in Japan and were basically upgraded Pathfinders and were only offered with V-6 engines. First the VG33 from 1997-2000 and then the VQ35 from 2001-2003.
QX4 shared the same platform as the Pathfinder R50, never had a V8, V6 3.3 and 3.5.
I was going to buy a Q50 diesel until i found out the engine is some POS from Mercedes, if it was Nissan's own engine or a Renault engine (i am a big Renault fan and have been for 24 years at least) it would have been a done deal but that's life.
Infiniti is the poor cousin to Lexus.
Scotty- Your car Brand Documentaries are second to none!!!
I always thought the J30 looked awfully similar to the Pontiac Bonneville at the time.
Too Infiniti & Beyond
The 1997 Infiniti QX4 came with the old VG33E and then later the VQ35DE (same as the Nissan Pathfinder it's based on) not the VK56DE Scotty claims. I also don't believe it had a 5 speed automatic ever in it's life. Also there's no such thing as an FX34 or QX50 (in the US as shown in the video), they were the FX35 and QX56 respectively. I love Nissan/Infiniti and hope this helps clear things up. No insult intended to Scotty, he's the man!
great documentary good sir can i have some more..
Love my m30 coupe
Graphic for your 2003 G35 is completely wrong...lol
Talks about G35 Puts picture of I35, instead.
I bought 3 infinitis and planning for my fourth. Reliable and Driver performance oriented. Im glad the finally saw the need to update their fleet. It has been 10 years and more for some models.
NISSAN Nymphomaniacs Ingesting Succulent Semen Anally Neutered
The infinitys are so ugly
I’m still on the fence about buying a used Q50.The Lexus Is 250 or Is 350 have been catching my attention lately
Me, swiss: never heard of them
The fx35 is great
The Infiniti FX was what got me into Infiniti. It was in a class of its own in 2003. Nowadays Alfa Romeo and Masaratti have sport SUVs. BMW was the first, but not this wild.
I had a couple Cadillac's. Worst cars. The digital diagnostics that was built into the dash was nice.. especially for adjusting the TPS without an extra tool if you had like a Buick of that same period. But overall they were junk. The most unbalanced engines I've ever had. They ran like something with a 3/4 cam but without the extra power. I really don't have anything good to say about Cadillac's unless you get back to the RWD C body's..no seriously I'd rather had a Buick.
If they can do all that how come they can’t build a transmission
Nissan needs to work on their quality of regular cars before they try to make luxury cars😂
I really enjoy these documentaries Scotty. Nice work. 👍❤️🇨🇦
I had a qx4 was a great vehicle. Info in this video was incorrect though. The 97-03 was made in Japan and had a 3.3L / 3.5L V6 with 190-250 HP. The stats mentioned were probably for the 2005+ qx56
Your "2003 g35" showed a picture of an i35 "the luxury maxima" 2 very different cars. Lol come on scott your better than that.
What are these idiots going to do to a once great brand??
The quality of the interior of the infinity is very poor,seats,dash etc.
Renault destroyed Infiniti. My 2004 M45 was AWESOME. My 2013 M37 is awesome. I won't be replacing the M37 with another Infiniti because there is no new, comparable Infiniti. The plan was to get the next generation of the Q70L but there won't be a next generation, there by ending my relationship with Nissan/Infiniti after 37 years.
Fx35 qx80 are the best
There was never an FX 34 made Scotty!
Infiniti as a whole brand is doing bad I mean if they are closing dealers in New York and in California near Beverly Hills they are not going to make it any longer and just hanging by a thread now
Hates Nissan but it's one of his advertisements lol
No the Infiniti Qx4 did not come with a 5.6 V8. Started with a 3.3 V6 and later a 3.5 V6. Never had a V8 option
@Saroxus I got a 2003 pathfinder chilkoot in 2019 for 1k. Spent another 3k on it to fix it up. No codes now. Only got it so cheap because she wanted it gone so she could have her parking spot for her new jeep. Lol
@James Abrams indeed. Had an 03 pathfinder. Miss that thing so much
Qx4 The last of fun, luxury, and reliable suv. For Nissan anyway.
N
Mass conversion to electric is going to be a 💩 show on many levels
Scotty call me nuts but I think the FX35 was one of the best looking cars ever
The QX4 did not have a 5.6L V8, it has a 3.3L V6. Also you used the wrong photo for a G35.
I think the QX55 might be a replacement for the old FX-series/QX70
Scotty's sounding like Joe pesci here
7:30 FX-35 not 34
7:17 that's not a G35 at all
Yeah he got a few cars wrong, he called the QX56 a QX50
As one who is employed at an Infiniti dealer (9 years and counting) I can tell you Infiniti will not be producing electric cars in the near future. They have enough problems with their antiquated line-up as it is and furthermore this brand is going out like Oldsmobile, Pontiac and Plymouth did.
Honestly my parents old infiniti is way better has more standard features then same model newer Acura
My youngest son has a G37 and until last week I had a 2015 Q50 (spoiler, I loved it but it got wrecked into). Both of those cars have been absolutely lovely to own. They are comfortable, stylish, and have great performance. I may buy another Q50 to replace the 2015, but it won't have the new steer-by-wire.
Long live the vq v6!!! Minus the timing chain/belt issues! Lol
Im in the process of buying a black 2016 QX70 AWD premium package with 60k miles for $20k and the carfax and info on it are perfect. im looking forward to this suv, ive always liked them.
Those FX"s handle so well because it's a Nissan Z under there haha.
I thought QX4's only had VQ's? I've been a Nissan guy since pampers, learn something new every day.
@Dedrean Dixon bro I don't take anyone's word as "gospel" I was just trying to be polite about the situation trust me I know.
They did not. Please don’t take this guys word as the gospel. 🤦🏾♂️. The QX4 had a 3.3 V6 engine. The specs he quoted were for the first generation QX56 which came out in the early 2000s.
Well done Scotty!!
I bet they still figure out a way to use that VK. It's been going strong for 20+ years.
Love how INIFNITI’s technology innovation was highlighted. I love the brand since my g coupe and have a q60 now. I hope our future is bright.
I'd like to see Scotty look at the better Audis. My buddy has one and it's truly impressive.
"To infinity and beyond"! Buzz Light Year Why, oh why do these car manufactures insist on making electrics to look exactly like the old gassers? No! I want my electric to look exactly like the Old School VW, Westfalia camper vans. complete, with pop top, rear seat that folds down to a bed, with ice box, sink w/running water, closet and and cuby holds everywhere. Make it all wheel drive with great ground clearance, so I can use it as a bug-out vehicle when SHTF. I sold my Westfalia and 74 bug (one owner, me) back in 1997 and I have missed them both ever since. Scotty, great video! Thank you
Scotty. That ain't the g35 at 7:15. Also, it's not 240hp, it's 280hp
I have. Q70. And I loved it
2:36 Scotty, the video editor committed nothing short of heresy when he stretched a 4:3 clip to fill a 16:9 frame. Why, I ask? Has he no sense of what damage to aesthetics he has done? In the early days of wide screen TV this abomination was commonplace, but at this stage of the game there is no excuse. No excuse at all. That's all I have to say.
Infiniti expensive asf I like em but for a headlight for 200 dollars I'm straight
Its so sad that a dying company had great stuff that everyone is using
Scotty! I enjoy your show but the QX4 does not have the 5.6 liter! It has the 3.5 👍😌
1:47 1985 was the same year that what started out as the "truck plant" opened in Smyrna Tn
I love nissan/infiniti I own a 1999 q45/y33 cima. Black on black only have 100k
I ABSOLUTELY HATE ELECTRIC CARS. If the power grid goes out you all are fucked!!!
Well im on my 3rd Infiniti, had an M56, a Q50 and now a q60. All over 400 HP, very fast, very comfortable. great ride and handling. Super reliability, absolutely fantastic dealership treatment. I love this brand. Very happy with all 3 of them. Compared to Lexus and the german cars you get more value with the Infiniti. Sad that they dont sell as well as the other brands, but i have found most people are mindless sheep who buy what everyone does so that might explain it. The only real knock would be the infotainment system is old compared to the competition, but I find the only infotainment that matters in a car is controlled by my right foot. And by that standard my Q60 is best in class.
Man you are so right! 😂 mindless sheep for sure! Im so sick of dodge diesels, camerys, tacomas and freakin 4 runners!!! Lol. I love my 08 M45 Sport and also love how people dont know what it is!!! Throws people off when they hear my V8!! Lol. Total sleeper car!!👍
Let me guess they’re going to call them Nissan plus
Some of your info is not right in that video 2014 was the year they changed G37 TO A Q40
I absolutely adore! Scotty! This guy gives it to you straight and never fails to impress!
Infiniti customer here! I own a 2014 Q50S Hybrid and 2013 FX35. Both continue to be great machines.
Finally! Some positivity for Nissan/ Infiniti..
I have a 1997 Infiniti QX4 that still runs like a dream, however it’s a 3.3L V6, and I don’t see anything about a 5.6L V8 version anywhere. In any event, I’m up in Toronto, Canada so once this pandemic is over I’ll bring it down so you can make a video about it.
Hello from Stirling Scotland 🏴🥃🥃🇺🇸
Hello from Kirkcaldy, i used to go my aunt's house at Weir St back in the 80's. Last time i was though Stirling it looks like it's shops now.
A month ago, Scottie said Infini was going out of business. I guess they paid him to say otherwise.
I have a infiniti, 1st car I bought on my own! Still have it will never get rid of it!
Im still in love with my 08 Infiniti M45 Sport!!! Its been very reliable!👍
Scotty, is a 2011 Toyota Highlander limited with 144k miles worth $13.5k?
U.S luxury cars always smelled like a box of old band aids. Then leaked oil all over your driveway which we were told was the sweat of the engine. European luxury cars were German Engineering that was pretty awesome to see and worked really well. Their body designs almost never went out of style compared to American Cars.
I miss my J30. That was a unique vehicle for its time.
The QX4 has a 3.3 or 3.5 motor and a 4 speed automatic transmission
Wow we all live in perilous times and the devil comes to kill, steal and destroy. The only solution to all of this is Jesus Christ. He came that we may have life and have it abundantly. What shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and loose His soul. Repent of your sins and turn to Jesus for anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. He already died for your sins and my sins and On the third day, God raised Him from the dead. There’s hope in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah
