I get a courtesy car for free during EVERY service (even an oil change)
when I take my Infiniti to my local Infiniti dealer. And my car didn't
cost anywhere near $100k. :-) And they go out of their way to give you
the same model or better for the loaner. I have a G20t - I usually get an
I35 as a loaner. This is one of the reasons I'm a die-hard Infiniti
customer - I feel like a king every time I visit them. How many car
dealerships do you walk into and the receptionist says "Would you care for
a coffee? Espresso? Soda? Massage?" Ok - I made the last one up.
Then again, comparing cars and computers is... well... nevermind.
