Looking to trade in the SUV for a car. I like the smaller Lexus and Infinit's. How are each on holding up and maintenance cost?

They hold up well and maintenance is good for luxury vehicles. You knew this already.

I've owned 3 Lexuses (Lexi???) all bought new. They are the finest cars I've ever bought & driven. Maintenance is expensive but I never had any repairs on any of the three, just oil changes, wipers, etc.

About the same as Nissans and Toyotas.
Only problem is if you wreck a 10 yr. old Lexus, the parts cost just the same as a new Lexus.
Used body parts for Infinity and Lexus are difficult to locate.
For this reason, it doesn't take much of a wreck to total a 10 yr. old Lexus.

i have an ls460, nothing other than regular maintenance.

Had an Infinity Q45. Bad arse car. Hauled arse. It really needs the higher octane fuel, however.

I have a G35 and love it. Brake replacement has been the biggest issue but it's at 30K so u can't complain.

I just got a 6 speed G coupe.
Fast, fun, solid.

Infiniti's can be pretty $$$ once the maintenance warranty runs out. [I hate the Infiniti dealership in BR especially] But, I think I like the Lexus F-Sport more.
Also, I'd wait until next years Q comes around. Infiniti seems to have a trial/error with new model vehicles. The following year tends to get things straight.
The makeover on this years model is top notch.

I own a 09 Infiniti G37 with nearly 100k. No maintenance outside of oil changes and tires. Holding up great.

Love my QX56. Luxury maintenance is a breezes but corvette guy is right. If you're worried about the cost of an oil change stick to Honda.

Both cars' oil changes are easily done.
It may need an extra $10 tool you can find on amazon or in the shop, but it isn't like a freaking BMW. Now that is a PITA.

The only problem my Infiniti has given me is faulty tire pressure sensors. Besides that, nothing wrong. I'm just glad I bought the additional warranty because it would cost me about 2k out of pocket

I have a Nissan Xterra and I've always thought Infiniti should make a lux version. It would be an interesting niche. I've had the car for 2.5 years, 38,000 miles and not one thing has given me any trouble so far. Only fix I've had to pay for is to the (thin) front skidplate which I dented to the point where the suspension was banging against it. As someone else said, the engine is bulletproof. Car is well made. Would buy again, but a Frontier with a manual this time.

Bought my wife an Infiniti G37 last year. It is a 2012. Took it to a dealership a couple of times for maintenance and it was way over priced. Now I just take it to a shop near my house that I trust. They don't call them stealerships for nothing. Been a great car.

Get an Acura. Made by Honda. Run forever with very low maintenance.
