I have loved my FX. It's sporty and super capable. My problem is with their build quality and customer service. Infiniti used sub par material on their dashes and they bubble in the heat. It looks terrible, like a rash on the whole dashboard. Infiniti replaced it once 3 years ago. It was a recall but my service rep said he was doing it as a favor (and suggested his favorite brand of whiskey, which I unwittingly bought him as thanks). When this same problem occurred again 3 years later Infiniti says that it's no longer under warranty even though the warranty on the dash was changed to 8 years (and this one is only 3 years old). I can't stand to look at it now. DO NOT BUY INFINITI.

Nearing 5 year anniversary and 99,000 miles... time to call it quits. High cost to maintain. Great power, and handling but a rough ride. Good snow handling after replacing factory tires at 17k. Poor turning radius. Exhaust noise is tiring on the ears. Poor instrument layout AND function, lots of cheap plastic and rattles, frustrating air controls. Entire dash panel "Blistered" badly due to defective mfg or materials... no dealer or manufacturer support for this issue. Even with close maintenance, car is falling apart mechanically. Wheel bearings failed right off the lot, complete exhaust system rotted, and front end and steering shot. Will not buy Infiniti again. Price outruns reliability.

I hate to drive, but I love to drive this car! Fun and reliable and it doesn't hurt that the styling is unique and does not look like all the others in its class. The liquid copper color just beams in the sunlight!
Very nice but needs improvements

Love this car after 13,000 miles but had to buy new tires to improve the ride recommend bfg's or toyo's and the 18" rims over 20". The 20" look hot but ride way to stiff. The pluses; great handling, power, and looks. The negatives; XM stereo goes out too often, no rear washer with wiper, no rear hatch window, seat bottoms need better padding, side mirrors create blind spots, 17 mpg with premium, bose stereo does not playe mp3,cdr,cdrw discs, no jack input for ipod on stereo, headrests need improvement, quality of stock tires, blind spots.
Love The Look

This car is great. Handles well in the snow has a lot of get up and go. Plus it looks cool. I bought the car in Dec. and it had 50,000 miles on it. Only issue I have had is that it look like I need the breaks replaced which is something that sounds common on these cars. It is fun to drive and I am looking forward to taking it up to the mountains in the summer. There is plenty of power and the handling feels more like a sports car then an SUV. I have been getting about 16.5-17 MPG. Overall I love the car.
Incredible Vehicle

With just short of 50,000 miles on the odometer, the FX has been nothing but a thrill to own and drive. The power from the V-6 is enough to snap your neck, the interior is gorgeous in every way and the design of the exterior is still a category leader. Great engine, strong transmission and the AWD is amazing. The Bose system is great and the interior layout has been well thought out. Paint and fit are top quality.

After five years (bought it new) I still love this car. I haven't had any mechanical problems at all (knock on wood). It performs like it did when I first brought it home. I don't know of any car owners, with the exception of Lexus, who can say the same about the same car performance and reliability. If and when this car dies, then I will consider buying another one.

I am still impressed with the quality and performance of this vehicle. While citi mileage could be better, on highways I am getting 23-24 mpg driving 65 to 70 mph. It is overall an extremely well balanced car and should retain high re-sell value. A few improvements could make this great car into the perfect car.
just okay

should not listed as a luxury. Not smooth as it should be, bumpy. I should have kept my lexus RX 300.

If you want sports car performance and still have the ability to see around all the suv's and vans out there, the FX should be your choice. Don't waste money on the FX45 which was my original intent, the 35 w/touring and techno pkg is the way to go. Less unsprung weight w/18 vs 20" wheels, 94 fewer lbs with only 35 fewer ponies is the way to go. There is also a comfort advantage. I love this animal.
