A while back I read an article about Vettel's edition FX50. Infiniti is now working on their own company that will be like AMG for Merc. They started thinkin' about it only after Sebastian Vettel gave them an idea. Dunno why nobody from infiniti never thought about it before... Maybe because our cars are still competitive while being stock? I remember when FX came on the scene in 2003 everybode screamed that it was faster than Merc's ML AMG. Now the new FX50 is almost as fast as the new ML63, being just stock. Maybe this is the answer why they never did anything like AMG for Infiniti before... And what about know?
In my opinion, the best way was to make an FX-R, not Juke-R. Maybe Infiniti engineers think that 530 twin turbo horses are too few for big fx and only enough for a little Juke?
Maybe... Nobody knows...except them))
Maybe they have another strategy... As all we know, FX is best in it's class. If we compare it right. We can compare FX37 with BMW X6 3.5i or BMW X5 3.5i or Merc ML350 or Lexus RX350. And Infiniti will definitely win with huge advantage. We can compare 0-60 times. We can compare comfort, reliability, price, options, designs, uniqueness, ANYTHING!!! FX will take the first place. Also, we can compare FX50 with BMW X6 5.0i or BMW X5 5.0i or Merc ML500 or Audi Q7 4.2 or Touareg V8...(or even v10) - FX wins!
And only if we start comparing our lovely FX50 (sometimes even FX37 as I seen somewhere on the YouTube) with X6M or ML63AMG or Cayenne Turbo S or something like Touareg W12 we will get a bad result. Why? Because this cars ARE ONE STEP HUGHER, AND THEY ARE TOTALLY NOT STOCK! They are especially made to kick asses, they all have turbos or superchargers. They cost TRICE the price of FX50! For example, here, where I live, you can buy X6m starting from $260000. FX50 fully loaded costs $100000. 1/4 mile For BMW is 12.8 sec, 1/4 mile for FX50 is 13.6 sec. Huge difference??? NO!!!!!!!!!!
So, here's my idea: I believe that Infiniti will soon give us a present with something like a FX50 with a VK50VETT engine)) I'm almost sure! And this car will kick asses for such bullys like Turbo S or X6M. We only have to give the engineers from Infiniti some time and appreciation)) After it's release, this car will be the fastest. Again =) In Any class))
Thank you for attention. Sorry for writing it so long))
