The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Summary:

Prince Charming on wheels
By Professional Test Driver, NewCarTestDrive.com
The Infiniti J30 is a well-balanced mix of luxury and performance, and if you define its styling as sculpted rather than bulbous, you'll love the way this car draws admiring glances. If you're talking power, performance or features, the J30 is a superb sedan.Regarding the small number of drawbacks: Few buyers are going to care about the J30's mediocre mileage numbers, and unless you're carpooling with four large adults, you won't worry about the rear-seat dimensions. However, the price tag could change your value equation. Once you add on destination charges, dealer options and taxes, you're starting to press into the automotive stratosphere. We'd definitely put the J30 on our shopping list, but if money is a big factor to you - and we'd like to know someone for whom it doesn't matter - then you should at least consider competitors such as the Acura Legend, Saab 9000, Mercedes-Benz E320 and even the new Oldsmobile Aurora. |

Overview:
|
The smooth, elegant curves of the Infiniti J30 make it one of the most distinctive, if not controversial, cars on the road. And in a segment over-run with import and domestic luxury-car wanna-bes, it doesn't hurt to stand out from the crowd. Despite a few questionable touches that smack of insecure nouveau riche, the J30 is a luxury sports sedan that will live up to just about anyone's expectations. Elegant and smooth are words that quickly come to mind when describing this Japanese import. And even after a few years on the market, the J30 remains a unique head-turner. The look-at-me exterior wraps around a contemporary, functional and much more subtle interior. The leather-draped inside is the sheer definition of luxury, and the J30's gauges and instrumentation are both attractive and functional. Under the skin, we're talking about a peppy performer that deftly blends acceleration, handling and creature comfort. For those who like their ride firm and precise, the J30t is the recommended choice. It comes with aluminum-alloy wheels, recalibrated springs and stabilizer bars, and a rear deck lid spoiler. We chose the J30t as our test vehicle and spent a week getting to know just what it had to offer. We do have one note, though. The J30 will cost you at least $38,550. Make that $40,550 if you opt for the Touring package (J30t). That's nearly as much as what the larger, more powerful and more luxurious Infiniti Q45 cost back in mid-1992 when the J30 made its debut.
