Revision as of 22:21, 25 March 2017
In the early years, Infiniti's mid-size luxury car was the M30, which was later replaced by the 4-door J30. It competed with the Lexus GS 300, BMW 5-series and Mercedes C-Class cars.
Year-to-year changes
1991
The M30 came in two body styles starting in this model year: a 2-door coupe and convertible. Both came with a 3.0-liter V6 engine and 162 horsepower. Neither model had any significant changes for 1992.
1993
The J30's rear-drive chassis was finely balanced, and the dohc 3.0-liter V6 both smooth and powerful. ABS disc brakes and all-season tires were standard equipment.
Also standard were a limited-slip differential, speed-sensitive power steering and a 4-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with interactive engine-transmission coordination to eliminate shift harshness. The top-line J30t added alloy wheels, V-rated tires and a rear spoiler that altered the controversial rounded trunk silhouette of the J30.
Like other cars in this class, the J30 came equipped with every imaginable feature, including leather upholstery, 8-way power seats, a Bose sound system with CD player, automatic climate control, remote keyless entry and a power trunklid release. The car itself was only 2 in. shorter than a full-size BMW 740i.
1997
The J30 was discontinued after 1997.
