just got off the phone.. that FX50S fully loaded..

Yeah I just looked over the car again. You can tell from the outside if it has the tech package by looking to see if there is a cutout on the top tint strip on the windshield for the lane departure warning and prevention camera.





The tech package comes with the following features:



Intelligent Cruise Control (Full-Speed Range)= (Car will control set speed when operating the cruise control and will slow down if your nearing a car in front of you. Once the car is not in sight it will maintain the set speed itself)

Lane Departure Warning and Lane Departure Prevention= ( Warns you when your drifting out of your lane and applies the brakes on the opposite side of the car to nudge you back into the lane)

Distance Control Assist= (The car will operate the brake pedal and gas pedal itself in stop and go traffic and on the highway) By the way you will actually see the brake and gas pedal move on their own. It looks like a ghost operating your car lol.

Intelligent Brake Assist with Forward Collision Warning= (If the car senses there is a pending collision about to happen, it will apply full brake force to mitigate severity of the impact)

Front Pre-Crash Seat Belts= (The belts will have electric motors in them that control them when putting them on or taking them off, plus control them in the event of a collision)

Rain-sensing front windshield wipers= (Wipers will come on themselves when the camera senses rain on the windshield)



Basically the car will practically drive itself...well almost drive itself. You just have to keep and eye on steering and the gas pedal(sometimes). I have the tech package and love it! The navigation and around view camera's are their own package.

Soooo jeleous!! I'd get a 50s in a year or so when the prices go down. I just want that V8 power. I love the white too, only thing I don't like is the wood trim. Wish we could get the Euro version with the black/carbon fiber trim

Glad you found the FX you wanted / Have fun with it !!
found it on autotrader lol

Damn that's a lot of steering column work. Hmm...

 

[Fire0nic3]

I don't think they repaired the steering column all those times lol. It's just on the system that it was repaired one time. It just comes out like that in the service records.

The steering column being repaired is referring to the tilt and telescoping adjustment function for the steering wheel position. There was a service bulletin on it.

I was told by a dude that the E30 M3 are becoming a good investment. They are considered classics and are becoming rare as in hard to find.

Yep that dude is correct. Find a clean, unmolested E30 M3 and you are golden as it is appreciating very well. If you manage to find an E30 M3 cabrio you will have a golden goose, but they were imported by the owners who have them and are usually never sold. Check out S14.net for more info.

E28 and E34 M5s are also on the rise IMO.

Congrats to you and your wife on the FX50!

Prices for the E60 are about right which is why im looking now.. they are at a half of what they wanted back when it 1st came out. But i know BMW plans to do a V8TT on the new Ms like that have on the X6M and X5M.. will not suck as much fuel as the V10s. I was told by a dude that the E30 M3 are becoming a good investment. They are considered classics and are becoming rare as in hard to find.

Update on FX50..
just got off the phone with JBL Infiniti, they gonna make me a deal on this sweet FX50S

The SUV is on its way to the house and in the garage, just got about an hour ago.

Looks exactly like mine! You'll love it. Mine also came with an Infiniti Factory 100k warranty from the dealer I got it from. It also came with every single accessory except for the illuminated kick plates, so I had the dealer put those in and got the all weather Infiniti floor mats. Oh and I'm glad it didn't have the bulky dvd player in the back, but had everything else. It's funny, the simplest things like the mud flaps are so awesome and love the tow hitch how it's basically hidden underneath so it looks more sporty but it's the full 2''.

What's funny is I go for my service at the Infiniti of Ann Arbor right now, are you in the area?

How did you get access to the service records of your car? Carfax, or is there some other Infiniti website or something where you can put in the vin and get all the info?

But I did get the Carfax from the dealership.
