Very Strong and Smooth

I had an '07 FX 35, I really love the unique body styling of the FX, because the FX doesn't look like anything else on the street. The '10 FX 5.0 V8 and the 390 horsepower is truly impressive and a thrill to drive, the SUV responds quickly and smoothly. The sport suspension control really makes the SUV drive like a sports car SUV and the growl from the V8 is also a head turner.

Brown Bomber FX50

This car is incredible. I'm coming up on one year of owning it and absolutely love it. Every day I can't wait to get in to drive to work and hit the gas just to feel the smooth burst of power from this 5 L V8 monster. If you are thinking about buying one go driving I promise you will love it. Has comfort of SUV with every option available and accelerates and brakes like a Corvette.

FX is not in the persuit of perfection

Love the car, but it needs some work. Just received a free dash replacement from hundreds of bubbles. The speedometer was recalled, no charge. The biggest complaint, the vehicle does not hold a track. It pulls left. It has a lane departure warning that uses a camera to see the dividing lines on the road. If you cross a line without signaling, it beeps. Nice feature, however it should not have been installed in lieu of fixing the tracking problem.

I purchased a 2008 Infiniti EX35 in May of last year. I "liked" the EX35, but never really "loved" it, and that always bugged me as it was not an inexpensive purchase. When I was in for my 1 yr 15,000 mile service I saw the FX50S on the lot in the same color interior combination as my EX35. I had no intention of trading up, but the car looked incredible. I threw what I thought was a ridiculous offer at the dealer, and two weeks later I was driving it off the lot. I could not be happier. The FX50S is EVERYTHING my EX35 was not, and I finally LOVE the vehicle I purchased. Technology, performance, comfort are all FAR above what I expected and for value, no other vehicle comes close.

2009 FX50S Issues

I purchased this vehicle with Sport and Tech pkgs in August of 2008 and was struck with its styling and V8 engine, 390HP. immediately, I noticed that when accelerating from a slow roll, there was a slight hesitation, then a jerk as the transmission engaged. I took the car in several times, but nothing could be found. The dealer finally told me that there was a tech bulletin on the issue, but no solution. So I still live with that. About a 2 yrs ago, my Bluetooth started dropping out, or not hooking up, a real irritation since I use my car for business. I took it in and was told that there is a problem with IPhone, Bluetooth and the car. I am NOT happy with the lack of resolutions!

What a great vehicle. After testing 10 different SUVs in its class. I think the FX50 S has the most bang for buck as far as Technology and Power in a well put together package. I love the handling and I love all of the technological features you get with it. It also has the biggest wheels in its class as standard. If anyone complains about the ride against any other vehicle just remember that because all other those other rides have smaller rims and not low profile tires such as the this one. I think Infiniti is definitely heading in the right direction!!!! If added my suggested improvements you would without a doubt have a clear winner hands down!! The Infiniti FX50S is a must have vehicle!!

I just love this car! It's ultra fast, powerful and super fun to cruise with. I owned multiple sports brands before, but the FX50S is something else, it's in a class of its own. I chose it over the X6 and never looked back ever since. I highly recommend this car.

Does It Again!

Once again Infiniti has outdone themselves! The styling in my opinion has been tweaked for the better! The new engine is very very REV happy! It pulls hard and strong! The new gauges and cockpit feels like youre sitting in a fighter plane! I love the manual paddle shifters. At first I didn't think i would like them but now I cant stop using them! The braking and handling is very very good even in the rain! Ive never felt so confident driving an suv at such high speeds before. This thing truly handles like a sports car! The navigation is the coolest nav system I have seen to date even compared to most aftermarket ones! Its that good! The all around camera view is priceless! Well done Infiniti!

What can I say, but wow what a vehicle. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to own this truck. I have owned luxury and sport brands in the past and this is the perfect blend of form and function. It gives me the space I need for the family but when I am driving it alone it is just amazing and fun. The number of features built into this truck is amazing. And while it is on the higher end of value it still tips the scale toward value for the money. Love the look and feel of this truck. If you get the chance to take a look at one I highly recommend it.

I am a previous owner of 2 X5’s (4.6 & 4.8), and I traded in my 2008 BMW 335I for this FX50S. The FX50S as a package is by far more superior vehicle than anything I have driven. The X6 is ugly, and I don’t expect it to be any better than the X5. Having said that, there is no other cross-over that can compete with the FX50S in terms of design and performance, not even from Lexus.

Ain't for everybody

I've owned the FX50 for a couple months. There are few on the street with most of the brand being FX35's. The car does demand respect in traffic as it seems those who know tend to shy away from it, this car is fast! Brings us to next point, this is not a truck, should not be considered an SUV/CUV either. I wanted a sports car, but had trouble giving up the SUV height and utility. That is EXACTLY what you get with this model, an SUV sports car. If you are looking for off road capability and storage, forget the FX. If getting a little (not a lot) of attention and V8 power is your thing you wont be disappointed. True competition is the Cayenne S and BMW X6 5.0. Both are $20k+ more

I like the car's performance, look and quality, also it is an "economy" vehicle in a sense that it has the best bang for the buck. The ride is not harsh, but rather has a sporty firm feel to it, reminds me of a G. P.S. - It does not always win stoplight starts but just the feeling that you are taking on Porsches and such in a truck... priceless. The best part starts when you floor it at 60 mph.

Great Value

Originally was looking at an Audi Q5. After adding all of the options on the Q5, the price made me start looking around. I was originally skeptical about the FX50 until a test drove one. It really is a beautiful car and I don't think pictures can really do it justice. The interior and technology is really top notch. Mileage is good for the power, but still quite a bit lower than the Q5, but what can I say... it may not be politically correct, but it is seductively fast. Incidentally, my dealer experience was exceptional and it only ended up costing a few thousand more than the Q5 I was quoted. Infiniti has a real winner with the FX50S.

Considered the BMW X5 (4.8i), Acura MDX and Mercedes Benz ML550 but selected the Infiniti FX50. Acura was a close second but FX50 performance was the deciding factor. ML550 and X5 were close in terms of the amenities but at a much higher price.

Totally Not Worth The Money Paid!

Navigation system interface is VERY unattractive and not very user-friendly. Fuel economy is a foreign concept to FX50. The ride is bumpy and uncomfortable. There is no off-road capability. The worst aspect of ownership is having to deal with Infiniti. The service is very poor. They don't even provide loaner cars when needed. Infiniti Customer Service proved useless. At this point, I would go with Lexus. Supposedly their Customer Service is unparalleled. I strongly advise against Infiniti as a brand.
