Still love my fx35 after 7 years!
I love my fx35. I have only had to do very standard maintenance on it. It is still smooth, comfortable. Reliable and attractive. I feel safe and happy driving it. I also love that it has all wheel drive and an added snow mode for when the weather is really bad. I live in Chicago and we have terrible weather so I really appreciate those added features.

Love how fuel efficient the engine is while still being fast. For a small SUV it has a lot of storage space for everything needed.
Its fast, fun and has a lot of storage space. Buy it in white

Love my Infiniti: I love my Infiniti fx35. Great gas mileage, reliable vehicle.
I am a 4 time customer of the Infiniti make of cars. This is my second Infiniti fx35. My first fx35 was a 2005. I drove it for 12 years. My 2012 fx35, is a great vehicle with great gas mileage. My only complaint is, there is not enough trunk space. In my 2005 fx35, I could fold up the cover in the trunk for more space. Otherwise, I love my car.

Infiniti fx35 is value and luxury.
I love my Infiniti fx35! It has been an extremely reliable car. In the past 7 years, I have only had to do the required maintenance. The leather interior and heated seats, as well as the sunroof are features that sets it apart. If they still made the fx35, I would definitely keep purchasing it.

Amazing vehicle it is perfect.
It is very comfortable to drive and easy to get go navigation tools. The back up cam is very nice along with the heated seats and sunroof. The amount of space in the car is very nice. My only complaint is the bucket seats because they can get a little uncomfortable when driving for a long period of time but other than that it is great.

Infiniti fx35 is perfect for experienced drivers who crave comfort and speed.
The car is extremely comfortable, heated and cooling seats plenty of cushion. Smooth black leather interior can get hot in the summer but that is when the seat coolers come in handy. In my experience the car can go 0-65 within a matter of seconds. It is a reliable car with good gas mileage, though it does take premium which can be pretty pricey. I would recommend this car to only experienced drivers because service on the car can be very expensive. That counts for external and internal problems as well.

Great car! No complaints!
I have only had very minor problems with my car. Like the window motor needed to be replaced. I love my car. Great in the snow, handles well, comfortable ride, spacious but not too big. It does have a really big gas tank. It is usually pricey to fill but it's not too bad on gas.

It is stylish and elegant. It is sophisticated.
I love the style, mileage, drive and almost everything about it. It is reliable and relatively maintenance free or minimally maintenance free. It is tight and cozy fitting a relatively small person.. It is easy to maintain, keep clean and it still looks good and relatively new. It still drives well after all these years.

We like it's durability and long lasting statistics of the engine and you can drive the car for more than 200,000 miles.
Like the ride and the sleek body. It drives like a race car. Especially when driving in the mountains. Back seat is a little small.
