Infiniti is gearing up for the new 2011 G25, 2011 G37, 2011 FX35, 2011 FX50, and the 2011 EX35, but meanwhile the market demand is greater than the available inventory. With all of these new vehicles on the way it seems people are very excited, but with this excitement on the 2011′s comes a shortage of trade-ins from customers. So, with more people waiting anxiously for the 2011′s to enter our showroom, we are seeing a shortage of used Infiniti’s across the country! I have included this cartoon on the right for dramatic affect and yes it has nothing to do with cars, but you get the idea. With their being a lack of used Infiniti’s, we are seeing people stretch their dollars further into 2010 Infiniti products, which is directly contributed to the phenomenal savings and incentives currently available. As you are probably putting together right now while reading this, we are now looking at a shortage in new Infiniti’s. As New England’s #1 Infiniti Dealership, we pride ourselves on having one of the largest if not the largest selections at all times! Still having a very wide selection, we too are feeling the pressure of trying to supply vehicles that are just simply not out there right now.

With our various resources and auctions we attend nationally we have been able to maintain our signature status of being #1, but it comes with many days of searching, and a higher price on each vehicle purchased. Dealers across the country seem to have been raising their prices and discounting very little to ensure they are selling their vehicles for a higher gross since there is not an overabundance of vehicles to replenish the stock with. Maximizing profit is key right now for dealerships and luckily, Infiniti of Norwood has been able to offer some of the most aggressive pricing on the market currently due to the fact that we always over stock to offer the best selection. During difficult times we are very excited to have these extra vehicles, as I am sure you can imagine. So, if you can’t find an FX50 or the right EX35, know that it’s not you, it’s the current market. Anyone who is looking for a vehicle we encourage you to give us a call and we will search high and low for it. It may take some time, but we will work to find it, and not only find it, but at a still, very aggressive price.If you have a current Infiniti and want to get into a new 2010, this is the BEST time to trade them in, as we are offering top dollar for yours today! Our Internet Sales Department can be reached at 877-776-7494 and we look forward to working for you, through tough times and the best of times! You will rest easy when the #1 Infiniti Dealer in New England treats you the way you deserve to be treated. We are the only Infiniti Dealership in New England to earn the prestigious Infiniti Award of Excellence and that was no accident. Come by today for a no-commitment test drive and consultation. You’ll be happy you did.Visit our website for our latest inventory: http://www.infinitiofnorwood.com/

Infiniti of Norwood Presents X Isles at The QX56 Release

The evening of July 8, 2010 approached and when 6 PM struck the clock, the party officially was underway.  When I arrived at the unveiling, I was greeted with a pleasant surprise when the valet attendant had informed me that he would park my vehicle and provide a complimentary car detailing! From that moment the stage and expectations were set. Upon entering the dealership, I was handed a gift bag, which I later found to include an Infiniti pen, keychain, QX56 booklet, a free oil change coupon, and car detail coupon. Too good to be true? They seemed to be buttering us up for a not so impressive 2011 QX56 I thought. But, when the night progressed I was ecstatic that I made time to attend…

The music was splendid, which featured the X Isles, a 2 piece band with vocals, guitar, and steel drums. Despite only 2 members, the band featured the incredible vibe of even some of the best 4 or 5 piece bands. Not over powering, but very full and soothing. My favorite part about writing this blog is including an aspect of life that I am very candid of: Food! Sky catered this event and truly added a 5 star touch with their signature ingredients. They featured crab cakes, quesadillas, scallops and shrimp, jerk chicken embodied by cornbread with a little swirl of BBQ sauce to top it off, cheese and meat platters, bruschetta, tortellini dishes, and more. All of the food was delectable and mouth watering! I was a little weary as to how the catering would go, as we all know catering with hot food is a hit or miss. Sky had 3 chefs in attendance freshly preparing all of the dishes on the dealership floor. The food was a showcase in itsself and truly did Sky’s typical reputation justice!

Now, aside from my rambling. The vehicle was finally unveiled. By 7:00 PM we all were exploring the new QX56. The car is very spacious, which was demonstrated by a family of 7, who had much room once packed in. The vehicle is slightly smaller inside than last years’ model, but has no bearing on still being able to fit your family comfortably. The car is filled with features, such as twin DVD screens on the driver/passenger headrest, luxurious design in the dashboard, steering wheel, lavish compartment space in the front middle center, leather, navigation touch screen, and more. Infiniti equipped this machine with a standard 5.6-liter, V8, 400-horsepower engine that achieves 14-mpg in the city and 20-mpg on the highway. For a car of its class, the QX56 stands above competition in having impressive fuel ratings.  Motor Trend asks, “Is there a better SUV in this category? Perhaps not.” The Infiniti QX56 is all new for 2011, and other fellow reviewers say it’s finally competitive.  The changes to the Infiniti QX56 for 2011 start on the outside.  I was happy to see that the angular, blingy styling of the old model is gone, while a more subdued look takes its place.  Inside, there’s standard seating for seven (though seating for eight is a no-cost option) in a cabin that again I would compare to that of a luxury private jet. Since it’s an Infiniti, the QX56 comes loaded with high-tech standard features, as well as some innovative available safety features, like Intelligent Cruise Control.

The night was a success and Infiniti of Norwood gave their customers another reason of why they won the 2010 Infiniti Award of Excellence. Classy event all around for the top of the line luxury SUV.

That being said, check this car out today and for more details please visit: www.infinitinorwood.com

The All-new 2011 Infiniti QX56

The redesigned 2011 Infiniti QX has created a lot of buzz here at Infiniti MA of Norwood.  We are also happy to hear that it is also getting rave reviews from the community of automotive critics.  With a completely revamped body and numerous exciting features, the sky is the limit for this luxurious and artistic piece of machinery.  If you haven’t had the chance to see it or take one for a test drive, it is certainly a breathtaking experience.  We hope to see all of you here on the automile soon!

I recently had the chance to test drive the 2011 Infiniti QX in Louisville, Kentucky, and oh man, was it a sweet ride. This QX has all the features that you’d expect from a luxury Infiniti SUV (which we’ll get to in a bit), but the first thing that strikes you is the car’s good looks. It’s an attractive ride by any standards. The QX has clean lines, a big-but-not-bulky frame and an executive jet-like interior that makes you want to grab a pipe and a smoking jacket and just lounge inside for a while.

The 2011 Infiniti QX drives as smooth as it looks. Newly designed to reduce noise and vibration, the QX is roomy, comfy and quiet. I was riding with The Bachelor Guy, and he said that the car was like a living room on wheels. This is true. In fact, the ride is so comfortable that it’s easy to take turns a little quicker and speed a bit more. Maybe that’s why The Bachelor Guy and I got pulled over twice. I thought the sharp turn that he made was worse than my 71 MPH on a Kentucky highway, but the state troopers that pulled us over thought otherwise. The Bachelor Guy got off with a warning and I earned myself a “speeding” ticket.

Aside from the exterior looks and interior comforts, the QX has a host of other welcomed features:

I’ve always been impressed by interior design, comfort and the level of sophistication of the instrumentation in vehicles. First settling into the QX it was obvious they tailored this new SUV for people exactly like me.

The cockpit was every bit as elaborate as that of our new Cirrus airplane, but much more spacious and, yes, comfortable. Acceleration was just as exhilarating as any take-off. I hit the pedal with gusto as we entered the expressway after leaving our staging point and my passenger said I should have warned him so he could protect his neck from the snap 400 horsepower and 413 lb ft of torque can provide.

Even with such undeniable power gas mileage has been improved over previous models and is respectable in all comparisons with other full-size non-hybrid SUVs (EPA rated at 20 highway and 14 city). Since this vehicle provided literally everything I would be looking for in an SUV my first question was an obvious given the times of uncertain fuel prices and availabilities – would a hybrid be on the immediate horizon.

Erik Johnson – Car and Driver

The outgoing Infiniti QX56 was a vehicle that never made much sense to us. After all, you could get almost all of its equipment—save a few electronic trinkets—on the otherwise identical Nissan Armada, and you’d save thousands in the process. But the QX has been redesigned for 2011, migrating to a platform shared with the Nissan Patrol SUV, a Toyota Land Cruiser competitor in the rest of the world. The result is a machine more perfectly suited to its primary mission: ferrying well-off families to and from the vacation house, mall, and celebrity-chef restaurants that serve microhydrogenated candied aardvark liver.

The architecture remains body-on-frame, but you’d never know it from the smooth ride and refined personality of the new QX. Whereas the old Titan-based QX56 was a truckish brute with yesteryear interior tech and a rough-around-the-edges persona, the 2011 version is bristling with up-to-the-minute electronics and a suave character that matches its sleek new exterior.

Infiniti MA of Norwood will have product specialists on hand to answer any questions that you may have regarding the completely revamped QX.  The complete redesigns of the exterior, as well as the improvements under the hood are sure to spark many questions that we will be more than happy to answer.  This vehicle is a completely different experience from its previous incarnation and is certain to impress! 

In addition to answering your questions about the QX, there will be complimentary food and wine available.  The Infiniti of Norwood QX Launch Party is being catered by Sky Norwood – one of the best and most well known restaurants in the area.  Sky Norwood specializes in fantastic American cuisine and is located at 1369 Providence Highway in Norwood. 

There will also be live entertainment.  The X Isles, a local calypso band will be on hand Thursday to sooth you with steel drums and their smooth Caribbean style. Additionally, there will be gifts available for our first 10 QX customers.  The first 10 orders of the new QX will receive a complimentary Apple I-Pad!       

We would love to see our customers and fans and have the opportunity to see those that we haven’t had the pleasure of meeting yet, so please RSVP for this exciting event at www.qxevent.com.  We are looking forward to seeing you here Thursday night!

2011 Infiniti QX56

Infiniti of Norwood is abuzz with the next anticipated arrival – the newly redesigned 2011 QX56.  Completely overhauled for 2011, the QX56 gets bolder styling and a more upscale interior.  The new incarnation of this luxurious SUV is much more sporty and curvaceous than last year’s model, and is a completely different experience.

The new version of the QX has considerably more power than its predecessor.  It features a 5.6-liter V8 with 400 horsepower (up from the previous 320) and 413 pound-feet of torque (an improvement of 20), and it is paired with a new seven-speed automatic transmission. Towing capacity checks in at an impressive 8,500 pounds, so there are no worries when it comes to towing your boat for those gorgeous summer weekends! 

Fuel economy, which is a perennial hot-topic amongst car experts nowadays, has improved to 14 City/20 Highway.  You won’t break the bank at the pump when embarking on those long summer trips in the car, which the QX is perfect for.  DVD players have become just about mandatory for any couple with kids as they set off to visit relatives across the country whose names they can’t seem to get quite right, and faces they can’t remember.   

Great safety features include the Infiniti Advanced Airbag System (AABS) which inflates the airbags accordingly depending on the severity of the crash, Blind Spot Warning which has also been featured on the 2011 M37 and 56, Lane Departure Warning to help alert the driver when he/she is drifting side to side, as well as, Intelligent Cruise Control to assist in a safe distance between you and the car ahead of you.  

An available Hydraulic Body Motion Control System (which includes 22-inch wheels and tires) automatically reduces body lean while cornering, which in turn provides a better ride and more composed handling.

Here at Infiniti of Norwood, we expect to see the new 2011 QX56 to arrive any day now.  This large, luxurious SUV is sure to be a hit once it debuts, and we don’t want you to miss out on the excitement!  Give us a call to set up a test drive, or to place an order!  We look forward to seeing you here on the Automile this summer.  Happy driving, and stay safe!

 Q: What were your first impressions of the 2011 QX?

A: At first I saw photos online and thought it looked a bit small and very different looking. 

Q: What are the major differences from the 2010 model?

A: Everything is different! The head of Marketing for Infiniti was there to unveil the vehicle. He had mentioned that when this came to the drawing board they decided to start from scratch and build from the ground up. As we were told, It is ALL-NEW.

Q: What was the crowd’s reaction to the 2011 QX?

A: There were about 75 people there for the QX unveiling… Everyone seemed to be very excited.

Q: Did you get a chance to sit in it?  How did it feel?

A: I did get to sit in it. The QX is so spacious and very refined. There is no doubt in my mind that this is a superior QX in comparison to the old one. I can’t see many other brands even coming close to the quality and appeal of this truck!

Q: When will it be available to the public?

A: We were told that next week (2^ndweek of April) Infiniti will start production in Japan. This means that dealers should see them in 3-4 months from now (Mid Summer 2010).

Q: What were some of the other highlights of the show?

A:Well, the show was set up very good all around. I really liked seeing the Infiniti essence Concept car that was on display and also getting to look at all the models and brands together.

Q: What were you most impressed by during your time there?

A: Duh… The 2011 QX56 of course! That and the entire set up from Infiniti. GREAT JOB THEY DID!

2011 Infiniti G25

The most exciting aspect of the new G25 is that it will also allow the company to extend its brand to a wider and perhaps younger customer base.  Many younger car buyers who have seen the advertisements for Infiniti during March Madness will be sure to inquire about what sort of offerings would cater to their car buying needs.  Look no further than the G25, which is expected to be more powerful than the Lexus IS250. 

The G25 sedan will be powered by a naturally aspirated 2.5L V6, which is an engine currently used in the JDM Skyline 250GT, instead of the  3.7L V6 that is installed in the current G line.  Under the hood of the Skyline, which is Nissan’s G offering in Japan – this engine produces 210 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. This is close to what experts project the G25’s engine to produce.  Those numbers put it right in the middle of the lesser powered Lexus IS 250 and the BMW 328i, which has 230 horsepower. The initial plans for the G25 are that it will only be available as a sedan. However, if sales are strong enough the coupe and convertible could also eventually be offered with the 2.5L V6.

Be sure to look up Infiniti MA of Norwood for more details related to developments with the excitement behind the 2011 G25 Sedan.  We are constantly welcoming the opportunity to gain new customers and fans, and we believe that the addition of the 2011 G25 will help us maintain our position as the #1 Infiniti dealer in the Boston area, and the only Infiniti dealer in Northern New England to receive the prestigious Infiniti Award of Excellence.

2010 Infiniti G37 Sedan

Infiniti MA of Norwood is excited to let all of our fans know that we were the #1 dealer in all of New England for new Infiniti sales in 2009! With our friendly and professional sales team and our dedicated service department, it’s no secret why we continue to solidify ourselves as New England’s best.
We realize that there is so much more to the car buying experience than just having the best deals. It is the long lasting personal relationships that honesty and integrity help build that keep the premier businesses like us at the top of the mountain.
In these unforgiving times of cold and unscrupulous business practice, personal touch and understanding can go a long way. Thank you for a wonderful 2009. We could not have done it without you.
On the heels of a great 2009, the long-awaited 2010 Infiniti G37 Sedan was released this month and has become an instant success among critics. U.S. News and World Report has ranked the 2010 G the second-best upscale midsize car on the market due mostly to its economic value when compared to competitors like the BMW 335i.

Others such as Car and Driver laud the new G37 because of its power, checking it in at a mammoth 328 horsepower. In times like these, it is important to get the most value for your dollar, so why settle when you can get much more for less?
While it is fantastic that critics love our products, infiniti massachusetts does not make cars to appease those who strike the keyboard from a distance.

We at Infiniti Mass of Norwood want to know what our customers think. We would really like to hear comments from those who have recently purchased a G37 Sedan. Tell us your stories involving the car, or just tell us why you love it. We look forward to your thoughts. Thank you, and here’s to a great 2010!
