Pros
- Parent context: I think they’re a really good value in the Canadian market atm, there really aren’t many options for an awd, comfortable, somewhat sporty car for the price. Reply: Especially coming from an Altima, you won’t really notice...
- I think they’re a really good value in the Canadian market atm, there really aren’t many options for an awd, comfortable, somewhat sporty car for the price. Like you said, the q50 is a great buy assuming the turbos don’t go.
- That said if OP can find a clean 2019+ with good maintenance records the turbos should be fine, they did fix most of the issues from the earlier ones
- Parent context: my Lexus wasn’t really that luxurious to me tbh my q50 felt the most luxury out of them all. Reply: my Lexus wasn’t really that luxurious to me tbh my q50 felt the most luxury out of them all.
- I’ve had a Lexus and I currently own a q50, I’ve also owned a Honda accord all really good cars tbh.
Cons
- I think that buying a Q50 in 2025 is just a bad idea. The car wasn't bad 10 years ago, but the problem is that Nissan has essentially gone bankrupt, there was huge mismanagement, and they couldn't do and research and development.
- I’m planning to buy a car soon and the Q50 has always caught my eye. I’ve done some research, but I’m still not sure whether it’s a smart choice here in Canada. I’m honestly just scared about the turbos failing, that’s the one thing hold...
- maintenance costs for the Q50 are about the same as for the 330, but the 330 gets better mileage.
- I'm just doing some super quick research and it says 2014 and 15 are the years to avoid for the Q50.
- First couple years of the Q50 also carried over the 3.7..
