	Infiniti M45 Overview - Edmunds.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The first Infiniti M45 was little more than a Japanese-market Nissan sedan that was rebadged and slightly "Americanized" in order to give Nissan dealers something with which to compete against the high-profile German nameplates that dominate this class.
		Options for the M45 line are consistent with its high-tech image, including adaptive cruise control; a lane-departure warning system; a Bose surround-sound DVD audio system with front-seat, shoulder-level surround speakers; heated and reclining rear seats; and a navigation system with voice-activated destination entry.
		The original Infiniti M45 debuted in 2003 and was basically a Japanese-market Nissan Cedric luxury sedan brought over to fill the gap between Infiniti's near-luxury G35 and the larger, technology-laden Q45.

	Infiniti M - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Infiniti bailed out of the sports car business until the release of the Infiniti G35 coupe in 2003.
		The 2003 M45 was based on the Y34-series Nissan Gloria/Nissan Cedric, with styling similar to the Gloria.
		Infiniti released a completely redesigned M for the 2006 model year to compete directly in the mid-size sport luxury class, against such class stalwarts as the BMW 5-Series and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

	MotorWeek: Road Test
		The 2003 Infiniti M45's pavement performance is as impressive as its subtle placement within a grand family tree.
		M45 power ratings are 340 horsepower and 330 pound feet of torque, the same as the heavier Q45.
		The M45 hits 60 in an outstanding 6.3 seconds, and finishes the 1/4 mile in 15.0 seconds at 95 miles-per-hour.

	Infiniti M - Wikicars
		The original M30 was an Infiniti model from 1990 to 1992, after which it was discontinued, and the M45 was introduced in 2003.
		The 2007 Infiniti M is available in two styles and a total of 5 trim levels.
		Both the M35 and M45 are available in Base models and Sport trims, but the M35 is also available in an all wheel drive version, indicated by adding an X to the name (the M35x), as is the case with other Infiniti models.

	Infiniti M45 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		A performance-oriented rear-wheel-drive sedan, the M45 is positioned between the flagship Q45 -- with which it shares many major powertrain components, including the highly acclaimed 4.5-liter V8 engine -- and the Infiniti G35 sport sedan.
		Although Infiniti markets the M45 as a technologically advanced muscle car, we still find it to be first and foremost a luxury vehicle, including most of the features typically found on high-dollar models.
		While we're not prepared to call the M45 the end-all sport sedan in its price range, buyers who find the pricey V8 versions of the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Jaguar S-Type and Mercedes-Benz E-Class out of comfortable reach may appreciate the value this Infiniti offers.

	Infiniti M45. Massive. / This smart-car can talk, it's luxurious, and it's about 2 tons (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Infiniti (Nissan's upscale division, as Lexus is to Toyota and Acura is to Honda) introduced its blistering Q45 four-door more than 15 years ago, about the same time Lexus brought in the LS400.
		What you get with this Infiniti is a car that easily competes with all of them on the standard criteria such as braking, acceleration, cornering, cabin creature comforts and the tattletale mirror test when you drive by a big plate-glass window...
		But Infiniti still doesn't have that cachet, that defining part of the language that says it is part of the zeitgeist, part of the car culture, which is too bad because Infiniti makes cars that don't have to apologize to anyone.

		The M45 has the brawn and the bulk of a one-dimensional performer, in other words, but is much more versatile.
		Infiniti, which is Nissan's luxury division, has been turning out some great-looking cars, but they haven't quite achieved the elegance or distinct character of Lexus or BMW.
		Infiniti will probably improve on many of these quirks when it redesigns the M45.

		Infiniti's new M45 is a result of a mission to capture key elements of its Q45 flagship and popular G35 sedans.
		Infiniti has created enough popular products over the past few years to acquire the right ingredients for concocting a seductive potion in its all-new 2006 M sedans.
		As with the G35 and FX crossover SUV, the M45 is based on a Front-Midship platform Infiniti simply tags "FM." This configuration features the positioning of the engine behind the front axle, which helps with weight transfer during handling maneuvers.

	Nissan/Infiniti Sucks
		The Board determined that the Consumer’s Infiniti was a "Lemon" because a water leak from the sunroof caused a foul odor and created the growth of certain environmental molds.
		At the last service attempt the Peak Infiniti Service Manager changed his tune and seemed fearful to say anything to me. I assume he was told to deny everything and not provide me with any information that may help a possible upcoming court case.
		Infiniti Consumer Affairs can track down the car by the VIN and do what is necessary, it's their problem now.

	CanadianDriver: Test Drive - 2006 Infiniti M45
		Infiniti is an automotive brand that's made huge strides over the last two or three years.
		The M45 is both fast and luxurious and compares with rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5-Series, Audi A6, Jaguar S-Type, Cadillac CTS, Acura RL and Lexus GS - and maybe one or two more prestige automobiles in the $60,000 - $70,000 class.
		The new M45 is no exception and the cockpit has beautiful matt rosewood accenting and high-grade leather seats and door panels.

	2006 Infiniti M Overview
		The M45 Concept features a powerful 340-horsepower 4.5-liter V8, taken from the flagship Infiniti Q45, along with a new generation of the FM (Front Mid-ship) platform currently used on the G35 sedan, G35 coupe and FX premium crossover SUV.
		The M45 Concept’s advanced braking system is designed to offer a confidence-inspiring brake pedal feel and enhanced pedal response, while the steering system is designed to enhance the engaging driving experience through a high-flow hydraulic boost system and micro-polished steering gear and robust rack mounting.
		The M45 Concept is yet another example of Infiniti’s leadership in providing luxury that appeals to both the soul and intelligence of the driver,” said Igo.

	[No title]
		The M45, Infiniti's equivalent of a "muscle car," has the same 340-horsepower V8 powering the Q45, but as you might expect, given the M45's size, performance is explosive as a result.
		The Infiniti M45 has a kind of futuristic geometry, and the massive taillights make you think of a starfighter launching from Battlestar Galactica.
		The 2003 Infiniti M45 offers great value and quality, with its impressive list of standard features that are luxury options with other cars.

		But since the Cedric/Gloria platform provided the basis for the Q45 in the first place, there was a swell way in which Infiniti could pull one of its niche-busting tricks and stick a V-8 right in among the competitors' six-cylinders at a price in the low $40s.
		The overall effect is somewhat conservative, but the M45 is still arguably better-looking than the Q45, and it does pack that 4.5-liter V-8 in a slightly lighter package (by about 110 pounds).
		Infiniti says the interior of the M45 is all-new, suitably upgraded for the ritzy demographics of its intended clientele.

		Nissan's Infiniti Division hasn't been selling as many M45s as it had originally hoped to, given that the model was intended to fill an obvious gap between the company's Q45 and its smaller cars.
		Infiniti claims the rear-seat room to be on a par with that of the Lexus LS430 (at 46 cubic feet, the M45 has two fewer than the Lexus), and sure enough, we found space back there tolerable even for a six-foot-five passenger.
		However, the rear center seat is much less inviting, with a broad transmission tunnel consuming much of the floor space, forcing the middle passenger to splay his legs and have his feet share the front seatback cutouts with the outboard passengers.

		Infiniti, however, has created a small line-up of sedans and coupes that, while distinctive, remain both pleasing to observe and to drive.
		The new Infiniti M series takes that distinctive design and moves it a little further upscale in the luxury sedan market, although it loses a little bit of the visual verve of its siblings.
		While it's not as sporty as Infiniti might want you to think, the M45 certainly handles nicely, with enough road feel to keep you actively involved in the driving experience, but cushioned enough to keep the comfort in the cruising.

	IGN: 2004 Infiniti M45
		The Infiniti M45 is part of not only the Nissan revival, but a shift from boring, old design to stylish new stuff from the people at Infiniti.
		Re-clad as an Infiniti, the large, muscle car-like sedan is sorta the baby bro to the flagship Q45.
		If anything, styling on the M45 is a big departure from the current Infiniti family.

		After all, the outgoing M45, a curious blend of 1980s styling and 1990s technology, has been nearly invisible since Nissan rushed the Japanese-market Cedric here in 2002 to give Infiniti a tenuous toehold in the mid-size luxury-sedan segment.
		Go with the 335-hp M45, though, and you'll get the same smooth and torquey V-8 as in the Q45 but with a slightly bigger cabin, none of the Q45's steering and suspension slop, and a lower sticker (though prices have yet to be announced).
		Infiniti surely has learned from the FX that captivating design, combined with world-class engineering and performance, is its ticket to the big time.

		The new car appears to be more of a doppelganger for the previous generation Q45 than it is a stablemate to the current Q. We were also dismayed by the early publicity photos which portrayed a high ground clearance, especially exaggerated by its lack of front chin bodywork.
		Disappointingly, Infiniti chose to use the same imitation chrome found on the door handles of the $28,000 G35, which is not acceptable on a $43,000 M45!
		While the car may be a big financial hit, Infiniti will have to make the next generation M45 with less compromises if they want their brand to compete and be recognized amongst the ranks of Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes.

		By the time the M45 makes its exit in a few months, fewer than 10,000 will have entered this country in its three years on the market.
		Stylistically, this pair is more in line with the newer crop of Infiniti vehicles, and we find the form pleasing, both inside and out, but attention to detail is lacking.
		Given that the roll center of a double-wishbone is generally higher than that of a multi-link, this suggests a roll axis that slopes further upward than it once did.

		With exterior styling identical to that of its Japanese market-equivalent, the Gloria, and similar to that of the Cadillac DeVille, the M is unlikely to offend upon a first sighting — or invoke a strong reaction of any kind.
		Engine sounds were hushed, and the exhaust note wasn't noticeably boisterous — a good thing for those who want an alternative to the Lexus GS 430 but possibly disappointing for those who prefer a show of flexed muscles.
		While we're not prepared to call the M45 the end-all sport sedan in its price range after this preliminary drive, buyers who find the pricey V8 versions of the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Jaguar S-Type and Mercedes-Benz E-Class out of comfortable reach may appreciate the value this Infiniti offers.

		That is probably why it looks an awful lot like the last generation Infiniti Q45.
		Despite its age, the design is very crisp and bulky, something popular with large luxo-sedans.
