    GARDENA, Calif., Feb. 15 -- Two 1999 Infiniti vehicles earned
runner-up to "The Best Overall Value of the Year" designations in the 13th
annual IntelliChoice Best Overall Value of the Year Awards announced recently.

limited number of awards.  Infiniti won the following awards:

     Infiniti QX4             A Best Overall Value - Intermediate Utility

                                                     Over $15,000

    IntelliChoice compares purchase price with projected costs to own and

projections for depreciation, insurance, maintenance, repair, fuel, state
fees, and financing.  IntelliChoice determines the value estimates for
