Infiniti J30

The Infiniti J30 was sold from 1993 to 1997 as a mid-size luxury sedan with a unique, rounded design penned by Nissan's studio in California. It shared its rear-wheel-drive platform and 3.0-liter VG30DE V6 with the Nissan 300ZX, though the engine was tuned for 210 hp and paired exclusively with a 4-speed automatic. Its controversial styling stood in contrast to the boxier designs of its German competitors.

Today, the J30 is a rare find and appeals to collectors of 1990s Japanese vehicles who appreciate its distinct looks and RWD layout. It's an accessible entry point into the world of classic Japanese luxury, offering a smooth ride and a durable powertrain. The collector market is small but dedicated, valuing originality and low mileage above all else.

The market is thin, with only 6 sales tracked recently, showing an average price of just over $5,500. While project cars can be found for almost nothing, exceptional, low-mileage examples have sold for over $10,000, suggesting a growing appreciation for the best-preserved cars.

Prices range from as little as $250 for project cars to over $10,500 for the best low-mileage examples.
