I drive the 7AT but a number of posters have stated the clutch isn't the easiest on the 6MT.

The rear view is infamously bad, there is no rear view camera (2011 supposed to have it), there is essentially no sound dampening in the back so road noise and especially debris throw up by the tires are heard real well.

The hatch sometimes doesnt open on the first release, there is a TSB, but some have reported it happening after the fix. The alcantara can't be cleaned very well, so you have to be careful. Nissan dealers are often not the greatest at customer service, so if you are used to Infiniti serbice, you mighr be disappointed. Some have complained about lag or hesitation in the DBW system, especially whe the oil is hot, and others have had excessive oil heating in regular driving.

If you are getting a newer 2010 or 2011 I don't think there is much else to worry about.

If you are getting an old stock 2009 or early 2010, some have excessive oil consumption and have the engine rebuilt under warranty - apparently there is now a TSB for this.
