Unusually Great

The FX45 is unusual in it's exterior design and you either love it or hate it, I love it. I have never had more people stop me and ask me what kind of car I am driving. It is in a class all it's own. I have also had a wonderful experience with the Dealership where I bought it. They are professional, courteous and and very prompt.

A Great SUV / Sports Car Experience

I'm over six feet tall and the position and structure of the seat in the '04 Infiniti FX45 are ergonomically correct for me. I've had a number of other vehicles that created undue pressure on my legs or thighs that have led to nerve deterioration. The car handles precisely and feels very preformance oriented for a SUV. The overall styling is excellent, mine doesn't have a roof rack which detracts from the lines of the car. The car is a tolal package for those who think outside the box. compare it with the much pricier Porche offering and you will see what I mean.

Just purchased a 2004 FX45 early in 2011 and I'm so pleased with this [violative content deleted] SUV. Even though FX is 7 years old, performance and looks blows away newer cars today. About performance, this SUV moves and accurate. The 20" wheels like to grabs on to the street however Goodyear stock tires are expensive. May have to look into Yokohama to save $$$$. In addition I just wished I bought it for the price suggested on Edmunds however dealers said no way. Anyway I paid a couple thousands more but wife and me are happy like a bee with FX!!!

This vehicle is a beast, handles like a G35 coupe. I should know, I used to lease an 03 G35 coupe. It's the perfect balance of sports car/ SUV utility. Goes faster, and handles MUCH better than an SUV should. You won't be disappointed but you will be shocked at the cornering, and acceleration ability of this vehicle. The Technology Package is a must. Navigation, rear back up camera, and the ability to start the vehicle without having the key in the ignition just add so much value to this vehicle. It's also nice to know that there is about one Infiniti FX45 on the road for every 15 FX35s.

Fast and nimble for a large car. Very stiff suspension which transmits every small surface irregularity to the driver. Interior uses cheap plasic parts in many places. Several unfixable interior rattles. Slight shudder from drive train upon takeoff which the dealer has been unable to fix. No real all-weather tires available for 20" wheels. Confusing dash controls.

The FX45 handles and brakes better than ALL SUVs on the road including the Porsche Cayenne Turbo which costs $50k more. Except for the six-figure Cayenne Turbo, no SUV in existence accelerates from 0-60 mph faster than the FX45. Not the Cayenne S for $20k more, not Mercedes' top-of-the-line SUV (the ML55 AMG) for $25k more, and not BMW's top-of-the-line SUV (the X5 4.6is) for $30k more. If you're looking for the utility of an SUV but don't want to give up the acceleration, handling and braking of a high performance sports car, test drive the FX45. Be sure to take it hard into a curve to experience the absence of any body roll. Simply amazing!

Just leased one of the remaining 2003s w/ luxury package for 599mo./39 months w/ $1300 down. For the past two and a half years I have been driving my wife's old RX300, which I inherited after we had a second kid and bought a mini van. The FX 45 will never be mistaken for a mini van. This car is an absolute beast that begs to be driven. It appears that with the release of the 04s, 03s can be had for at or under invoice (my cap cost was $2500 below invoice).
