Q45T/FY33

Might be a re-post, but whose Q is this? Also what year exactly and what aftermarket pieces were added just from a observation from the video?

[youtube]F8KbJTsVFHo[/youtube]

I've read that these Q's body styles came out in 1997, but from wikipedia

The car's appearance was slightly altered for 1999. For this year, HID headlights were added and the analog clock returned. Minor styling changes were made to the front and rear fascias. 17" wheels and an electronic adjustable suspension became standard on the Q45t. Numerous safety improvements in 1998 model were augmented in the 1999 and 2000 models

The 2000 Q45 Anniversary Edition had the highest trim level available for the second-generation Q45. This trim level was standard on the 2001 models. The Q45t was the most expensive vehicle in the Infiniti (excluding the AE for 2000) lineup and offered enhanced performance, a rear spoiler, heated seats, dynamically adjusted shock absorbers and other luxurious features not available in a standard Q45

Standard features for the second-generation Q45 included a leather interior with fake woodgrain trim, but no dual climate control, a Bose audio system with eight speakers with an in-dash single disc CD player, auto dimming rear view mirror, automatic light on and delay off timer, and steering wheel-mounted cruise control and head unit control. Also standard was a memorized adjustment system for the driver's seat and steering wheel. A CD changer and heated seats were available as options.

So If I was interested in purchasing one, which one exactly...the 1997, 1999 with the minor styling features on front back bumper/electronic suspension/safety additions, Q45 Anniversary Edition, 2001 Q45's, or the Q45t's?

Those knowledgeable on these cars..chime in on any differences or "it doesn't matter".

Thanks for the help, I do appreciate it.

GS, 1/2LS, Y33, F50, and a few others are all pretty abundant on here. And with reason, they cost like $5,000 now. Buy a Geo Metro, I bet no one on here is going to VIP that out.

It's better than a few years ago when there were mostly vip "style" anything and everything.. lol

Cool to see more platform cars.. Hopefully with cheaper prices come more aggressive body mods!

G50's are practically free now.. haha

regardless of what's common on the forums, seeing any well built vip car on the streets is rare. in fact, i can't remember ever seeing one outside of a meet/show.
