Folding seats make plenty of room for business or my pit bull I take everywhere.

Performance and reliability of this car have been phenomenal! Never had a problem with mechanical issues. Comfortable almost luxurious, this has been my favorite car ever. I love the sound of the car, the style and body shape is instantly recognizable, nothing else that looks like it on the road. Will buy another!

It gets pretty good gas mileage . It is quite luxurious on the inside while being a very practical car at the same time. The back seats fold down and give you added space . It also has a hidden compartment In the back to store valuables and keeping out of site .

I love the way my car looks. It drives beautifully and it is quite spacious on the inside. The warm seats option in the winter is fabulous . I wish you could open the hatch by using the car remote . Other than that, I love my car!

You need to remember how low to the ground it is so you do not scrape the bottom.

Right now I have to get the electric wiring looked at. It drives smoothly and is very spacious. I love it.

The awesome Infiniti fx35 2006.

It is really nice car to drive. I would like to give a fair warning and say that it does have a blind spot that you have to make sure you look for. It is very spacious in the inside. I think that the cup holders seem very fancy. It comes with a built in navigation system, therefore you can always find your way if your phone dies or something of the sort.

4 wheel drive, works great in the snow.

Good gas mileage, dependable, is great in the snow, Some part replacement is expensive. Brakes don't last as long as the average vehicle.

Great style and performance. The sound of the engine is mesmerizing. The sound is not loud but unlike any other. It gives me the feeling of a sophisticated mid size sports car.

I love the style, design, and color of the car. It is considered a crossover which is not a small SUV and not a large SUV. It is just right in size. The back seats folds down and allows me to do all of fun things I like to do including loading small to mid size pieces of furniture, luggage, gifts, and or groceries. The color black is sophisticated and the design fierce but elegant. The engine allows me to keep up in traffic and the control and steering allows great control here in the suburbs and back roads. This model I dislike that the navigation is not touch screen and can only be upgraded through a CD. The air bags had to be recalled as well as the driver seat and some other engine parts.

The Infiniti is a good car.

It's a nice vehicle for a family of 5. It has a navigation system built in the car. It comes with a back up camera. The only thing that I didn't really like was that the side mirror caused a blind spot for me. I'm also short so that could just be a personal problem.

Pros from Owners

Jeff B.

I enjoy the size, the crossover style adds to flexibility. There are a number of items I also like: heated seats, visibility, multi-disc CD changer/player, map display, etc. This vehicle is loaded and is a step up on quality.

Joanne C.

Fun to drive, extremely dependable, great looking vehicle. The interior is roomy and it has heated and cooled seats, it has a backup camera and notification of lane departure. I always feel safe when driving my fx35.

Cons from Owners

Jeff B.

The need to use high grade gasoline. This is a 2wd model and I now live in a snow environment where the 4wd model would be better. The tire size is an odd size so the tires run a bit more expensive than other crossover/SUVs.

Joanne C.

I would say that the biggest con is that is does not have the greatest gas mileage per gallon. It gets about 16 mph city driving and about 20 mph for highway driving. It also does not have a very large storage back storage area but that is to be expected since it is a small crossover.
