I recently sold my car and purchased a used 2003 Infiniti FX45 with 95k miles on it. I was frustrated with being unable to find a used car that had maintenance records, and being a full-time student yet also a car enthusiast, I am unable to purchase a new car at this point in life. I understand that this is not the most fitting car for a student, but I consider myself a car fanatic and therefore I don't feel this was a bad decision. People spend money on all kinds of hobbies! To me, this car is not a status symbol, but a source of joy and learning. I will be proud to drive this car up until its last mile of life. :good:
Anyway, I found my FX with low miles for its year and extensive maintenance records. It was owned by an old couple in a dry climate (St. George, Utah) and both the interior and exterior are in excellent condition. My only complaint thus far is that it has a slight old-lady-perfume smell to it, although that gets better every day. I also replaced the air cabin filter with the help of some Youtube videos and that has seemed to help a bit.
I am smitten with my new (old) car and am determined to keep her in tip-top shape. I have scoured the internet for information about common issues/maintenance requirements for this vehicle, and found this forum along with some others. I am excited to use this as a resource in the future.
