You probably forgot about it. And even if you didn’t forget about it, you may never have seen one before. And even if you’ve seen one before, it probably wasn’t this clean. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a factory-fresh 1992 Infiniti M30 convertible.

I’m trying to forget about that HS250h next to it. Horrible car.

Nothing nearly as lowly as that. A rebadged 2nd generation Nissan Leopard.

Remember it very well. Why?

Almost bought one for my first car. It was an original owner garage kept example with under 30k miles.

I think “Old Floridians” is all the more explanation I need here.

Yeah, that’s literally the only way I knew this car existed, or continue to remember that it existed.

Yeah. The seller was a retiree from Chicago in his 80s. He told us stories about Vietnam and had the veteran front plate...

I always thought these looked way out of proportion with the convertible top up. Way too upright for such a low, linear body.

I remember these cars and can’t forget about them. In fact, I almost bought one. I made an appointment to go see one at the dealer, but on the way there it was crashed and hit! Smashed on all four sides (the ad showed photos all around the car, every angle, the car looked great)

Clearly. But I watched that particular clip.

Yup. Better with the top down, but best with a hardtop.

Marky Mark keeps talking about buying a Lexus convertible with the gold they take from Saddam. Ice Cube keeps correcting him, telling him Lexus doesn’t make a convertible, only Infiniti does.

I saw a really clean last-gen Staza just this past week! I loved the look of that car back in the day. Yeah, I was into boxy sedans.

Better than today’s convertibles where the belt line is so fucking high

I saw one of these locally around a year ago. Never saw it again. Maybe they garaged it hoping it'd be a future classic!

You’re looking at 3500 or so pounds of convertible and only 160 hp with a 4-speed slush-box to motivate it through an open differential. 0-60 in 9.7 seconds. It might be a classic one day, but it’ll be a slow-cruising one.

Right. Well they need to be in order to pass CUV-height safety standards. And at least those high belt lines lead to better trunk space.

I reeeally wanted to buy one back in 09 when I was trying to replace my first car. It had some front end damage after hitting a deer. I ended up walking away after deciding I had to have a manual trans.

I’d still love to have one as a drift car project.
