Now’s the time to buy an Infiniti

By now you may know Infiniti is withdrawing from Australia as a brand. Not because its cars were disasters, but simply because the luxury arm of Nissan just could not nail a decent market share here.

But how’s this for a yarn sent to us by one of our EFTM spies. Ozbargain.com.au has unearthed a treasure trove of Infiniti vehicles, with some prices slashed by almost but half.

The fire sale at Infiniti Centre in Brighton, Victoria is offering brand new cars at staggering prices. For the example the now slightly better looking, but truly epic QX80 is now $94,888 driveway, formerly it was $124,850.

The new QX70 3.7 Litre GT was $84,274, now $46,888 a saving of $37,385.

Take a look for yourself, no doubt when the company does leave after sales service will be left up to Nissan. But put simply these are really crazy prices, I feel awfully sad for those who paid full freight just a year back!

There are some T&C’s as stated below.
