"Infiniti didn't change much with the styling, but then again, it didn't really have to-the current car still looks wild, aggressive, and fresh." They are right about that one....
 
Ken, that would be the best time for the car with the most optimal conditions. I'm pretty sure it would be hard pressed to repeat those numbers consistently in real world tests just like the 0-60 times.
 
I like this one:

1ST PLACE Infiniti FX35
Less sexy, with more utility and a surprisingly smooth ride. Add in a far thriftier price tag, and the FX is clearly the more rational buy.
 
Why do you say that? I had a '99 Honda Prelude that couldn't run faster than a 15-flat stock.

I know, it's just scary how technology improves... the new FX35 is faster than the 1st gen FX45 WITH mods :rolleyes:

but I do realize that all these magazine stats are done by professional drivers... they test cars day in day out... and have the launching thing down good...
 
I don't think I'll ever be a fan of the 2nd gen FX's exterior styling, but the interior looks pretty damn clean. I like the glossy black center console... but I wonder how easily that is scratched up?

I'm also very disappointed that Infiniti decided on the VQ35HR instead of the VQ37VHR... I was hoping for FX37 and FX50...

Now where's the G50?
 
Speaking of motortrend.....you guys remember this issue? hahahahaha
