    As much I like to say that Infiniti's vehicles are outdated and old, they do exude that early 2000s and early 2010s vibes that you don't get anymore and some people may like that. I mean take a look at the Q50, that thing looks like it's 10 years old, which is pretty much is, but still has that charm and character to it that you don't get with many cars in that segment.

      Ya the Q50 is legit 10yrs old now but I agree with what ur saying:)

      It really reminds me of the older style of Lexus - floaty, comfortable, and dependable.

      @@rjpro654 still would be nice if Infiniti could step up their game, because out of the three Japanese luxury brands, I think Infiniti has fallen behind quite a bit compared to Acura and Lexus. Nissan really needs to inject life into Infiniti, and so does Honda and Toyota, but most definitely Nissan needs some work.

    I have 2020, and it's absolutely wonderful. People should drive them for yourselves. The Nissan Armana is nice, too. But Armana doesn't have the hydraulic suspension like the QX80. That's the difference between the two that people always leave out of their analysist. But it's all subjective. But everyone should drive one for themselves. I'd buy a new one, gladly too!!!

    You should definitely upload more to your own channel! Understandable though why you don't as you have to film for DM, WR and Topher too.
    Also it's pretty incredible to see the transformation of the garage. The DM video of when you guys just moved in there came up the other day.

    Lol I happen to be 6'5" and I was worried I wouldn't fit in one of these, so thanks for the info. Something about most Japanese cars seems like the seat can never adjust far back or down enough for me. Shame because I was considering a used 2021+ Armada. Surprisingly good value in today's market for a reliable behemoth SUV.

    Cześć,
    Świetna recenzja, super samochód który nie wpisuje się w dzisiejsze standardy. Wszystko ma być mniejsze, silnik z turbo, lżejsze a co za tym idzie nie tak bezpieczne jak Twój samochód. Ja tutaj w Polsce mam Infiniti QX70, pomimo niewielkich gabarytów uwielbiam ten samochód i czuję się w nim mega bezpiecznie. Raz jeszcze dzięki i pozdrawiam.

    It's ironic. The new Cadillac Escalade's seats look like a flat park bench and are about that comfortable, but, you know, it's "modern." The QX80 more closely embodies what made Cadillac cars desirable in the first place...comfort. There's actual room in the 2nd row of the QX80, whereas my knees (at 6'2) are up against the front seats in the Escalade. We've got these huge "modern" SUVs with garbage interiors, ever diminishing headroom due to the idiotic trend of putting more and more glass in the roof, less and less seat room because the center console has to be massive, and they typically ride like crap, but we keep gaslighting everyone that that's what everyone wants nowadays. For me, the QX80 outdoes those vehicles all day long. It looks classy, it rides nice, it's got plenty of room, and it's comfortable. Simple. Yes, the screen in the QX80 was an afterthought and is kind of pathetic, the shifter is 8 inches bigger than it should be and looks ridiculous, and sound deadening could be better. It's not perfect. But it's better than a lot of the newer stuff they're making nowadays, IMO.
