Best SUV crossover to own.
The FX35 is a great, fun, reliable high performance SUV. Minimal repairs, only a radiator leak (from salt and humidity in Florida) a small coolant and oil filter leak (at 10 year old mark). Very satisfied overall.

Good car to have gas economy only hard pedals made of plastic.
It a very reliable car runs fast and saves on gas. If there is anything that car needs it will let you know ahead of time before it mess up completely. The only thing I don't like is the acceleration is hard to step on so after a while your leg hurts. The pedals are plastic don't know why this cars are like that.

Good family SUV and affordable.
Very reliable low upkeep. Good ga mileage. Lots of legroom and lots of storage space. Can easily accommodate five adults. Would easily recommend this to families with children. Rear seats fold down to accommodate oversized items. Good value and affordable . .

Great handling and trim, love the sporty look.
No problems, It's a gas eater because of V6 but I love it. Never had a problem with it. Drives smoothly and low maintenance.

It is comfortable and a nice ride.
I like the size and ride. Gas is expensive.

It's ideal for someone who doesn't like large vehicles. It's the perfect mix of a car and SUV.
I like the fact that it is a small SUV. It's easy to drive and maneuver. I dislike the fact that it does not get the best gas mileage.

Love/Hate of Infiniti FX35
The only problem I've had was with the radiator but it was covered by my extended warranty. I rate the vehicle a 4 out 5 because it takes premium fuel and is not that fuel efficient unless you are driving highway only (I did a round trip of about 500 miles and made it 98% before having to get gas but on a daily I can only get about 400 miles). It is comfortable for a family of 3 but the backseat doesn't have a lot of legroom (thankfully my hubby and I are both on the shorter side). My model has great performance and get up and go (which is probably why the mph isn't as high all the time).

Love the vehicle hate the consistent upkeep and cost of owning it.
A lot of upkeep. Very expensive to go through dealer for maintenance and repair. They charge outrageous amounts for services.. Not worth it. I love the body style but it is overwhelming. Dealer quoted 1400. 00 for service that I got done by an outside mechanic for 180. 00.
