Niagara on the Lake, for our 20th anniversary. We saw "The Grand Hotel" at the Shaw Festival, and it was an excellent show. The wife absolutely loves meandering around all the shops, the winery hopping, the restaurants, etc. And Niagara Falls is just 20 minutes away. On the way up, we took another tour of University at Buffalo, where my kid is enrolled this Fall.

My dash developed a crack just above the info center. I pressed the thin section between the crack and the info center and left a divot. Very disappointing for a car that cosr $44,000 new. I'm done with Infiniti.

That escalated quickly.
7 year old car, Texas heat. Rough environment.

Between the 7AT, the sunroof drains, the problematic A/C and now this, escalation has been occuring for 7 years. The chassis and engine are great, the materials and electronics are not.

I forgot you've been having ongoing AC problems, sorry, man. It's a good car, but I have my fair share of complaints as well.
I assume this is something you're just stuck living with, because dash replacement sounds expensive.

At least your car starts.

, I feel for ya. In the year or so I've had this car, I've already put $5k into it, not including my exhaust mishaps and new tires. I still have an interior leak as well.

VLEDs are a great company with both customer service and performance. I have a pair and am very happy with it.

Do I smell a part out or is this just frustration?? If partout, keep me in mind for your ark exhaust.

Down the street from me is a family with two boys the same age as my girls, so we've known them off and on for over a decade. Some years back the father started a lease on a white Mercedes CL300. Not the most impressive or attractive Merc (IMO), but still quite an upscale and respectable car for this neighborhood. Eventually he bought out the lease, and then simply gave the car to his 17 year old, who's always been a selfish jerk, rude to his parents, barely graduated HS with no prospects.
Naturally, the kid did what you would expect... heavily tinted the windows (illegal in NY), painted the headlights black (?), god damn black PlastiDip on all the trim, the grille, the badges, etc. Even the OEM wheels are painted black now. And I have to see this lame clown car almost every day around town. It's offensive, for so many reasons.

Well, taste usually isn't derived from parents at that age, it's peer-driven. Most people mature and morph into their parents to some degree, but then kids like your neighbor boy are permanently "damaged" in that respect. About the only thing that will affect his taste is his wallet.
