The only gripe I have is the transmission seems to be a tad laggy on downshifts, almost like its geared higher or maybe they've changed the throttle mapping... so I don't get the quick response and surge of power that I'm used to... the ride is definitely improved but again, I'm used to the ride with the Eibachs and 20" tires. I can understand the criticisms about the Q being more Lexus than Infiniti, the shifts and the ride is smoother, interior is quieter, seats are less bolstered... maybe the new Red Sport with the revised suspension, steering and improved HP and torque will address those concerns... I'd like to test drive one! But for now I'm just going to enjoy my cheaper car payments
