Used 2008 INFINITI FX35 Consumer Reviews
Too much tech
With 8500 miles the FX looks like a keeper even though some of the techy stuff is frustrating. If the cruise is on and you are in a bend it will pick up cars in other lanes and stomp the brakes for you so you really have to watch where you have the cruise on. Bluetooth phone is garbage. Also the black chrome grill is all peeling off and Infiniti says they will change it once as "good faith" but it's my fault and not a supplier defect.
Very Pleased
t's the nicest looking SUV out there, it's a blast to drive, and even the bare bones model comes with everything I need. The interior is wonderfully simple, the seats are very comfortable, the stereo is loud, and the engine really sounds sweet. It does accept regular fuel, a lot of it, but performance seems to be a bit better using the recommended premium. Acceleration is smooth and reasonably brisk, and steering is firm and sporty. I think it's a great value for the money.

Sport Sedan In The Shell of An SUV
Recently purchased the FX35 2008 after repeatedly admiring it's aggressive exterior on the road time and again. The car is everything it's penned to be. The equivalent of a G35 with an SUV exterior. Acceleration is responsive and immediate, addition of iPod connectivity is nice (although not perfect). The luxury features are impressive (bluetooth, NAV, XM satellite radio). Gas mileage is a little weak (I'm averaging in the high teens/low 20's), but that is somewhat expected with the V6 275 HP. The BOSE sound system is fun to listen to, and all-in-all, I am quite satisfied with the FX. A definite recommend!
Went from BMW 330 Convertible to FX35
I needed more room and had to give up the convertible. I was really surprised when I test-drove this car and fell in love with it. The FX35 has a great sporty look. It handles as well as my 2005 BMW 330 CiC (with sport pkg). I really enjoy driving it. I have almost all the options - sport pkg, touring, handsfree, (except DVD player). It's very luxurious on the inside; I haven't given up anything. I can't imagine driving anything else.
My 4th infiniti
Started with an I30 then a 2005 G35x then 2008 G35x, now the FX35. Handles much like the G35's and not really much difference in gas mileage. Love the look, the feel and handling. You do get used to the limited rear visibility, really you do. It corners and accelerates well. Very comfortable at all speeds.
