I'm Impressed

I went to the dealership to look at used Q45's, and drove out in a new FX35. I know, a very different car than what I was looking at, but I was impressed the first time I drove it. Spacious enough for what I need, head turning styling and all the power you'll need in a car. Very fast and handles like a 300Z. The dealership was great too, look forward to buying more from them in the future.

Handles very well. Ride is a bit rough. Very well designed,engineered, and built. Gets a lot of looks. With about 17000 miles I haven't had any problem, except for a serious issue with the driver's power seat controls, which are poorly positioned on the right horizontal surface of the seat and press on the right thigh. Never noticed this in the 3 test drives I took (one lasting 45 minutes).Friends in service dept at dealer tell me "off the record" this is definitely a problem pattern, but nothing can---or will---be done to correct it. Too bad they wont bite the bullet and do the right thing.

I travel a great deal with my job so I end up with approx 20 rentals per year. I've never had a car or SUV that handles as well as this one does. You never get the "top heavy" feeling that comes with most other SUVs. Plus it's fun to drive.

Fun, Fast but lacks a third row seat

I love my FX35. It is fun and fast. It has 280 HP, quick on the highways and very comfortable to drive. I really enjoy the 20 inch tires, the car handles incredibly well. The only downside, if you want to get picky is for $36K the car lacks a third row, something that I need with 3 kids to haul around. The hatch is fine, but I would of preferred to have an extra seat if they could have designed one in the vehicle. I tested the Mercedes M 350, the X5 and for the money the FX 35 was the right choice.

This is a great vehicle to drive...great handling, comfortable and sporty. I've had my FX almost a year now, and have driven all over Texas and to North Carolina. It handles the hills, curves and mountains like a dream, but is fantastic to drive to work in as well. And it looks great too! People always ask me what I'm driving and comment on how great it looks. You can't beat the planned maintainence either. The dealership goes out of their way to get you in and out as fast as possible. Don't think I'll ever own any other kind of vehicle!
