Used 2005 INFINITI FX35 Consumer Reviews
Best in its class...however
I traded my Explorer for this vehicle. I am very happy with everything about it. The style, the performance and simplicity of regular maintenance. Changing the driveline is very simple. Take bolts out, fill it with the proper fluids and put bolts back in. Other than the tranny, all fluids are available anywhere. Air filter is easy to change. Spark plugs are harder because of all the wires and the cover, but shouldn't take longer than an hour. BIGGEST problem of this vehicle is its valve covers (alot of them). They leak after 80K and you have to change them BOTH. With the cheapest options (you buy the parts, you get your buddy to install it), it will still cost you $600+. That sucks
Sports Car Look & power, fab performance
This is a wow looking car with fabulous interior, the 280 hp v-6 can accelerate going up hills. Never had a car with so many hot comments from passers bye. The 20in wheels and computer assisted steering & drive is awesome. while this is sports handling, the taller profiles make for great suv needs in the clearance over rugged colorado roads. Electronic 4 wheel drive is the best i've ever driven.We are all westerners who have had lincolns, mercedes, corvettes, & grand cherokees. Only negative is the rear visability. Front seat adjustments are terrific, and even my shorter wife loves the views. Sound System unreal!

FX 35 is hot
Good power and handling. Throaty sound on start-up rather cute. Adequate (but not large) storage. Very good looking. This car has keyless operation, which is great! No fumbling for keys to open doors or start the ignition. Auto seat and outside mirror adjustment per each driver when door is unlocked. Test drove Lexus, but its power is marginal. Ride of the FX is reputed to be stiff, but seems okay to us. Reputed blind spots also do not seem to be a problem, either. Nav system works well - tells you in advance if there is a left turn immediately following a right turn.
Best Car I Ever Owned
I love to drive this car! I bought it primarily for safety, but it quickly turned into the best car I have ever owned. It handles nimbly and quick, like a sports car. The engine is powerful and fast - I have avoided several accidents because of the maneuverability of this car. With the AWD and 20" tires, the car holds the road and I feel in total control, even around tight corners. The interior is slightly small (great for me, since I'm 5'2", but a tight fit for my husband who's 6') but the comfort and luxury makes up it. I would recommend this car to anyone!
