Great car, not comfortable

For a high end SUV the FX35 competes well, with some really nice features and tight solid construction. The controls are intuitive and usable, its nav system works great and the feature set is impressive. Comfort is a real drawback. The seats are good, but rear seating is cramped and there is limited cargo space. Space in the front seats is limited as well, with none of the little cubby holes and slots I am used to seeing in well designed cars. The ride is one word - punishing. You will feel every bounce and bump in the road. Pass on the technology package, it is annoying, constantly beeping and interfering with your driving style.

Great driving. I also had the transmission fixed and it runs great. New features are wonderful. Infiniti hit a home run with this one.

I'm FXed!

Recently traded in my '04 FX35 for an '09 FX35 and have no regrets. Comfort is all you feel when driving or riding in it. The '09 FX35 is significantly smoother and quieter than the '04. I actually enjoy driving now...doesn't feel (or sound) like an SUV but rather a luxury vehicle. The controls are all within easy reach. The Technology Package is a must! As far as the gas consumption, it's not any better than my '04. My opinion is that if you can afford to buy a new FX35, fuel prices/consumption should not be an issue. TIP: Drive it w/TLC!

Great Upgrade from my 1st Gen 2003FX!!

Traded in my 2003 fully loaded FX35 for the 2009 with everything except for DVD this time. Like others wasn't crazy about looks such as grille and new color choices but, my Mojave Cooper w/mad-frown and wide arched hood has really grown on me. The DCA technology is the most impressive, actually pushes back off gas pedal and applies brakes when it detects a car in front, even in stop and go traffic. Other music and nav tech features are really fun. I don't understand how they made it faster and yet get slightly better MPG too, have not averaged below 20 yet after 2K miles. Braking and handling has also improved much over my 2003.

Second FX35

I traded a 2005 FX35 for a 2009 FX35. Got all the bells and whistles with this new model. I love (most) everything about the car and generally agree with all of the posts here; however, there is one thing that is a negative. The front seats are quite a bit HARDER than the old model. I believe the seats had to be redesigned to provide for their new airflow. They are a bit like slightly uncomfortable shoes. If I were younger (I'm 45) I would not have noticed; however, the older one gets, the more things, in general, become uncomfortable! I still love this car. The seats are my only gripe!
