Used 2004 INFINITI FX35 Consumer Reviews
FX-35 An overlooked SUV
When my wife decided she wanted an SUV I was hoping she would go for this one. She likes it as much as I do. We recently took a trip and averaged over 24 mpg which is the best we have ever gotten. We average slightly over 20 city/highway 99% of the time. I wish we had opted for the navigation system but it was an ugodly 4,000 more. On a car costing 40K you think it would be included. And the front seats are one piece and bubble up in the center depending on the outside temps. They have since put a pleat down the middle which took care of that problem.

V6 is enough
If you want an all wheel drive vehicle that is fun to drive , pleasant to look at , is unique and well built the FX35 is your vehicle. It corners better than m0st sport sedans, it zero to sixty time of 7.3 seconds is better than most suv V8s and all other V6s. It can be a little bumpy on rough roads as it is more tuned for performance but still is so fun to drive. You can have it all.
High maintenance costs
The car is fun to drive but the build quality is poor. In the last year I have replaced both front bearings (luckily covered under warranty) and just got a $1000 bill to fix my front seat. I have owned 16 cars in my life and the front seat has never broken on any of them. The seat heaters failed (I am not repairing) and they said the seat track is broken and the part alone is $700. The car is cool, watch out for maintenance costs.
Best of the bunch
I buy way to many cars/SUV'S, but I can say I may have found the perfect balance. This CUV is as fun to drive as my A4 Cabrio, with a load more power. Handles really well! Havn't driven the Chyanne, but I've got to believe the FX is close. I've now owned an RX300, XC90 T6 and the Touareg and the FX blows them away. All had good points, but the FX is by far the best combo of power, handleing and plush. The ride is a little rough going slow on a bumpy road, but I can take that for all it has!
Best SUV
Terrific vehicle. I researched every one and this was best under $60k. More sports car than SUV. Looks are subjective, you either love or hate it. Exhaust sound is unrivaled in the industry. This SUV is fast and handles great. Would easily buy again and upgrade to V8 if I had the $$$. Only complaint is Navigation system which is inferior to Acura and Lexus.
thnaks mom
Awsome for a first car my parents picked right
one beautiful car
this is the most dramatic and advanced design i've seen in a new car in years. just seeing it in the driveway or parking lot is a real pleasure. It drives like an airplane and handles very tautly. accelerates like a rocket ship
Too much fun
I love this car. Surprising handling and acceleration. It is a performance sports car. Laser cruise control is amazing. Nav system and sound system are perfect. Infiiniti service lives up to their reputation.
cool car
excellent body design !
