When contemplating the purchase of a vehicle, knowing the estimated total cost of ownership is of the utmost importance. The Infiniti G37, a luxury sports sedan, is renowned for its performance, style and reliability.

If you want to own an Infiniti G37, buying a pre-owned is your only option, as the 2013 model year was the last manufactured under the Infiniti G37 name. A newer variation, the Infiniti Q50, is still being manufactured. If you are a fan of the Infiniti G37, you can still occasionally find them on the used car market for an affordable price.  

Easterns Automotive currently has many Infiniti vehicles in stock, including recent model year Q50s, QX50s and QX60s.

Initial Purchase Price

The initial purchase price is often the most substantial upfront cost when acquiring a vehicle. For the Infiniti G37, prices can vary significantly based on whether you opt for a new or pre-owned model.

• New Model: Infiniti Q50s are equipped with the latest features, advanced technology and a comprehensive manufacturer’s warranty. However, new cars generally come with a higher price tag and experience rapid depreciation in the first few years. That’s why many Infiniti shoppers opt for purchasing a 2020, 2021 or subsequent model years rather than buying new.
• Pre-Owned Model: Choosing a pre-owned G37 or Q50 can offer considerable savings upfront. Pre-owned vehicles have already undergone the steepest part of their depreciation curve, making them more cost-effective. Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) programs provide additional benefits, such as extended warranties and thorough inspections, making it more likely that you get a reliable vehicle at a lower cost.

At Easterns Automotive, we pride ourselves in our selection of pre-owned Infiniti Q50s and a variety of QX models with flexible financing options tailored to your needs.

Depreciation

A car’s depreciation is a significant factor in the total cost of ownership.

• New Vehicles: New cars experience the highest rate of depreciation in the initial years of ownership. For the Infiniti Q50, QX50, QX60 or QX80, this means a significant drop in value soon after purchase.
• Pre-Owned Vehicles: Pre-owned G37 and Q50 models have already absorbed the bulk of their depreciation, offering better value retention. This makes them a more economical choice for those looking to minimize depreciation-related losses.
  

Insurance Costs

Insurance is a crucial component of vehicle ownership, with costs influenced by various factors. Firstly, the driver’s profile plays a significant role. Age, driving history and location are key determinants of insurance premiums.

Younger drivers or those with a history of accidents typically face higher premiums. The age and condition of the vehicle also impact insurance rates. Newer Infiniti Q50 models might have higher premiums than an Infiniti G37 due to their higher value and the expense associated with repairing advanced technologies.

Pre-owned models often come with lower insurance premiums, making them a more affordable option. The Infiniti Q50’s array of safety features can also contribute to reduced insurance costs. Features such as anti-lock brakes, airbags and advanced driver assistance systems not only enhance safety but may also lead to lower insurance premiums by mitigating the risk of accidents and injuries.

Maintenance and Repair Costs

Routine maintenance and occasional repairs are inevitable aspects of owning a vehicle.

Here’s what to expect with the Infiniti G37 or Q50:

• Routine Maintenance: Includes essential services such as oil changes, tire rotations, brake inspections and fluid replacements. The Infiniti G37 and Q50 are praised for their reliability, which helps keep maintenance costs manageable.
• Repair Costs: As the vehicle ages, the likelihood of needing repairs increases. However, the Q50 and G37’s robust build quality and reputation for durability help keep repair costs reasonable. Pre-owned models, particularly those with detailed service histories, provide insight into how well the vehicle has been maintained.
  

Fuel Expenses

The G37 typically has an average fuel economy of about 19 miles per gallon (MPG) in combined city and highway driving.

As of today, the national average price of gasoline is approximately $3.50 per gallon. So, the estimated average annual cost for fuel for the Infiniti G37, based on current gas prices, is approximately $2,212.
