I really think that Infiniti went over the edge when making the EX. I fell in love with this vehicle from the time I got into it. I had an option to either go with the BMW X5 or the Lexus RX 330 and hands down the Infiniti won. The ride is smoother and quieter as well. For me it worked out great. I'm single no kids, and love to travel. I had a fully loaded HHR, and had to trade it in after looking at this vehicle. All I have to say is keep up the good work Infiniti!

What a deal!

I just bought my EX35 a few hours ago after spending 3 weeks test driving EVERY comparably-priced luxury cross-over (Volvo XC60, Audi Q5, BMW X3, Acura RDX). I also test drove the Honda CR-V for the practical side of me looking to save a bundle. All in all, I know I may not have the most "seasoned" review, but I can say that I do not have buyer's remorse in the slightest! I came out of a '01 Toyota Rav4, very dependable and practical for my needs at the time, so the EX35 was a steal (besides, my car was a total loss after a wreck and I needed new wheels)! I walked in, test drove an EX35 and loved the smooth ride and quiet interior almost immediately. The huge savings sweetened the deal!

Tech heaven, or tech hell?

On paper, this is a car from heaven for tech geeks: hard-drive rips and stores your CDs, flash card reader for music, voice activated phone and navigation, intelligent cruise control, lane-departure warning and prevention, 4-cam virtual overhead parking image, etc. Imagine having all that in your new car and then not being able to use it! Infiniti's legal department has *really* gone overboard in limiting what you can do with your tech if you are not stopped. Example: want to find a restaurant? you can only choose from the four nearest, even if 3 are behind you. Even the music system is restricted when you're driving. Insane. Really, really frustrating.

Extraordinary? Yet TBD.

I really like this little car. It drives like an Audi but is more comfortable for my tall friends and family. I am very irritated by the "fuel pump" quandary which is detailed below.

Great car but a few shortcomings

My wife and I bought this car yesterday after doing a lot of research on the internet and shopping around for weeks. We have the AWD Journey model with premium and nav packages. The biggest surprise for me is how small a change in handling and aggressiveness it was from our 4-cylinder Camry. The EX does not feel aggressive at all, and the small turn radius keeps it from feeling like an unwieldy SUV. Supposedly it goes from 0-60 in 6.3 seconds, and the acceleration is there when you need it, but you wouldn't expect this if you aren't pushing it hard (unlike the BMW 1-series, which even at 10 mph lets you know it is ready to rocket you into space at any moment). But, we love how it drives!
