I've always taken pleasure in reading forums for my fantasy purchases in the future, or even to find out about a potential purchase, but I've never actually made an account until now when the InfinitScene only allowed the page I wanted to view be accessible by members. Nice play, InfinitiScene. Anyways, I bought my 2007 FX35 "Fixxy" Back in 2016 in Kuwait, and I have really loved this car. I took her all the way through the hot deserts of Arabia into Jordan, where I even took her to unearthly places like Petra and Wadi Rum. What an absolutely reliable beast Fixxy has been with now 230,000km. After that trip, I soon there decided to move to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia where my brother was currently working (we're both English teachers). And here lays the problem:

After I transported Fixxy to Saudi, I flew back home to California to take care of paperworks in hopes to get a residency, but with hiccups in the saudi government issuing it that year, I wasn't able to secure residency; therefore, I was not able to get the car successfully transfered over in time before the papers expired. However, I had already took her into the country before leaving for summer, so she has stayed in Saudi since. Now, I am looking to move to another country, and poor Fixxy is stuck in limbo: she's technically illegal to drive here now (although I do use her for the neighborhood uses, and I can't take her back into Kuwait because the registration has expired. I still don't know what to do with her when my time in Saudi is up and I move to another country, but I am already trying to get over her and drool over buying a potential FX50S. Are the FX50S worth getting? I quickly got over the Porsche Cayennes once I read about the price tags in the shop. I do, however, love the old Lexus LX 470's, though their speed and mpg's make me hesitate. I've never personally been a crazy fan of the FX body style, but much like Fixxy, I think I can make one look better with some updated wheels and tasteful coloring. Time will tell....
