Aged like fine wine

I took a chance and bought a 14 year old car with just 74,000 miles. So far it seems like a wise choice. You stand a good chance of getting a really nice car for a good price if you pick an older Japanese luxury model. They seem to hold up much better than the American and German premium brands. My FX35 looks contemporary even if tech features are archaic. It has the typical FX35 door lock issues but there are cheap fixes for that nowadays. Other than that all accessories work as they should. The performance may have been outstanding in 2004, but is middle of the road in 2018. Power from the 280HP V6 is adequate and the FX has a substantial feel to it you won’t find in a brand new Chevy Equinox. Getting 17 MPG on 89 octane in the city. Driving in wet weather conditions with awd is surefooted and it’s unaffected by crosswinds, we’ll see how it does in snow soon enough.

I bought my 04 FX35 new and my front seat bubbled up. Had the seat cover replaced and the bubble happened again. Dealer refuse to fix it and Infiniti denied my request to have it fix. This car looks great but quality is terrible. My first Nissan/Infiniti product and will be my last.

Upgraded the tires to BFGoodrich KDWNT GForce 285/60/18 bigger tire looks great improves ride & handling PLEASE DO GET THE WHEELS PROPERLY ALIGNED ON THIS CAR DO NOT TRUST THE DEALER TO DO A GOOD JOB WITH AN ALIGNMENT! Went to top wheel alignment specialist showed me the dealer only aligned the front and not the back wheels. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE RIDE AND HANDLING!

I love the technology and gadgets in the car - the most for the money. Very fun to drive. For this much $$, I don't understand why the suspension is so rough?? Highway driving is like you're in a Mack truck. You feel every crack in the road and bounce around like a bobble-head.

Ride too harsh

Don't buy this car with the sports package you will feel every single bump EVEN the white lane stripes when you cross over them! The ride is way too harsh and not at all "sporting" and after a short time it gets old. The interior of the car is nice with good seats and this does somewhat offset the exterior design which some call a frog with wheels. Now I know why there are RX330's all over the place.
