2009 Infiniti FX50S - Long-Term Road Test - Car and Driver

[yzoooon]

If you can't stand the fact that its expensive, you probably can't afford it :p

Plus the cayenne s is expensive yet no one comments on the price tag because its a " porsche " ?

What a dumbass reason with no logic whatsoever.

The best SUV in the world

[honestly101]

i love the person doing donuts with all the safety gear on ! you know your in north america when you got that much safety gear on !

[Carlzaquera]

Are you brazilian?

[jenica2010]

I have fx35 2008 and love it.

[tom11zz884]

The big question is how well will this thing hold up after 5 years?

I'm sure the repair costs are gonna be a bitch on that thing after 5 years.

[sphinxofthenewage]

@tom11zz884 mine is almost 3 years old now i got a 2009 model. ur point is valid repair costs are high but the engine and internal equipment are all fine, i got probems with the rediator , i got problems with the brakes, i got problems with transmission (rarely) but its still a problem, i got problems with throttle bodies which get dirty and hinders the airflow into the engine sometimes....so yeah it got its problems but they were fixed...at a high cost.....

[snapnrool]

@tom11zz884 I have a 2007 FX35 which has been completely reliable so far, even with nearly 50000 miles. I have used synthetic oil and therefore have only changed my oil every 7000 or so miles. I just recently had the belts replaced as standard maintenance and have absolutely no complaints whatsoever. It is an excellent vehicle.

[Tarnjit69]

my dad thinks it looks like a turtle!

[Charles2337]

Straight out of a sci-fi movie.

[cardude1992]

wow this is so much better then the lexus rx

[Tarnjit69]

@cardude1992 I have a Lexus RX330, it's really great but I'd rather have this

[tom11zz884]

@Tarnjit69 Lexus are nice cars..but the tend to lack "SOUL" or "Character" compared to the other luxury brands.

[crazytasi]

waaaw

[7mto1]

ولاأنا غلطآن ...

[HHamanyy]

@taruky15 انزين ليش تسب ياجحش ؟

[surethang27]

Great interior, but goddam 67 thousand is way too much for a japanese SUV that rides like a dishwasher on wheels. Is it sporty? Hell yeah but I'll take an Acura instaed. ANY ACURA over this.

[Johncarson9113]

@surethang27 Thats called being on a budget ;) Seriously why the hell would you take an Acura over an Infiniti? I mean dont get me wrong acura is reliable and well...affordable, but theyre just not real competition to other other brands in this segment, even if some Acura models do go faster then some BMWs or Lexus they just arent on par with the brand image of BMW, Lexus, Infiniti, Audi & Mercedes benz. I mean If your taking the Acura over the Infiniti FX due to cost then thats understandable.

[surethang27]

@Johncarson9113 Acuras are all about engineering over brand image. I had a Land Rover and it does get you attention because it's cool and expensive but im way happier with the Kia I drive now. I think being concerned with image is ridiculous. Live your life. Don't become a slave to materialism and things you will never own

[NoctumDeVir]

I have one. It's very popular in russia

[DJFG85]

The new Acura ZDX is about the same price loaded but has a MUCH weaker engine, who does Honda think it is?

[Latincitizen]

@DJFG85 gas consumption... what if i dont feel like having a v8?

[DJFG85]

@Latincitizen then get the FX35

[MrFx50s]

i love the car! its slightly slower then the x6 5.0 twin turbo, Cayenne Turbo, and Grand Cherokee srt8 although the FX50s shares the same overall overall performance as the cayenne and x6 for a way less tag price. nice car..

[benjam335]

i want the office cooler

[Gramazone]

WOW I've never seen one of these before

[juanpablofx]

there are some really aggressive pro Infiniti comment raters on this video. lol

[Little199]

$66,690 that's not so bad!!! Love those21"

[lcfanyc]

The old one looks a lot better.

[vtek905]

nissan owns honda? hahahahaha dipshit dont make laugh oops i already did, everyone knows, nissan will never surpass honda in anything so eat a dick only thing good out of nissan is the GTR and z series cars thats it, everything else just another half ass pos that cant compete with honda and toyota

[Vampire285]

@vtek905 Sorry dude not only the GT-R and the Z series are the only good cars in Nissan .. you have this FX50s,G37s,M56s,Nissan Patrol 2010,QX56 2011,EX37GT,Titan Nismo 600HP and the Essence 600HP wich will come soon to compete with the LFA .. only NSX series is the good car in honda and the HSV-010 GT is a race car and you will not see it in the road it only will compete in the GT500 class of the 2010 Super GT Series

[mypassmark1]

GEOREOUS

[huffy15]

seems like a mix of the range rover and the Q7

[pm512]

It looks like Snoopy.

[hartman010101]

why white???

[johnnyzinho0]

looks like an x6

magizines says it sucks cuz it jumps alot

but i still like it =] , and its hot rather x6 =P

[nomi4lyfe]

looks like itll it me if i look at it straight lol

[Soldier0117]

Awesome! It looks like a shark!

[theSavulator]

66 grand for a infinti, rather have an x5 instead.

[yourmomwazgreat]

go buy an x5 with half the stuff infiniti puts in

[mstt1010]

I was thinking just like you are, why not an x5 or x6 rather than the fx right? Well, once you start reading some of the 100s o problems I've read and experienced abt x5,x6 you'll think twice before putting your money in a bmw.

[shippou09]

Actually, have the first gen =p. This vehicle is not overpriced, it's a bargain compared to others in its class.. ala Porsche. If you think it's an overpriced Nissan, slap yourself for being stupid. So many stupid fucks on youtube.

[thugangel662]

66 grand!! u could got a CTS-V for gods sake i can live with for a year

[kanyewest313]

ohh you cant buy a mercedes so u must buy a ugly japan car :-S

[shippou09]

Honda V-10? (looks around on the road). Where is it, my friend? I dont see any Hondas on the road with a V-10. Now is now... Honda has nothing like this one the road.

[vtek905]

exactly honda doesn't have this on the road because look at this thing, the old model looks way better

[happyboyy8k]

beat  any American's crossover.

[CAgangsta4]

the office cooler hahaha

[proteanview]

I guess I'm the only one who likes it.

[hovy82]

yes u r

[EMdemo]

nope. I love it.

[Ironrhcp]

i love it

[quietviewer]

It looks like a clown shoe... always has.

Nifty technological doo-hickees. If you like it, buy it.

[whatthehallbetch]

the grille is too big. ugh...

[jezzetv]

i want the ice cooler more then the car

[vashdastampedet]

How is this car overpriced? Find another suv that has everything this car has. There's only a few suvs that is faster than the fx50 and the interior is flawless.

[Soldier0117]

I agree. Infiniti is really stepping up. This thing should have BMW and even Mercedes worried. I think its awesome, and I think the only SUV that could beat it is the Cheyenne Turbo, but this is just ever so short of that for half the price. Perfect!

[mstt1010]

No, there are more suvs than cayenne turbo that can beat it, cayenne, x5m, x6, ml, jeepsrt8, but the best choice has to be the FX.

[NoveltyMop]

Screw the Infiniti, I want a review of the Cooler.

[ge0rge22]

rear active steering? nice.

[TangoR34]

now honda needs to watch and learn! time to spend money on technology like more choice and powerful engines and gearbox, not designing ugly cars

[vtek905]

hahahaha you're saying honda needs to add more technology, more choice of what? honda needs more powerful motors? dude look at their displacement they can crank out alot from 1.8 dohc to 3.7 sohc unlike nissan they need dohc v6 to make more power, oh by the way thats why honda have acura

[TangoR34]

I say Honda with acura included. has Honda got a V8 like nissan and Toyota got(including all their luxury division)? has Honda got a 6-speed gearbox on TL and RL? no, only 5 whilst others got 7 for those efficiency saving

[vk45de]

eh? honda's got a V8?

[vtek905]

uh ok, 7 speed is way too many, plus honda has a thing called vcm try looking it up, and plus not everyone is going to achieve their fuel rating, oh yeah honda doesnt need a v8 they have something better a v10

[TangoR34]

I know what VCM is. I'm not trying to diss Honda, in fact I am a fan but atm I'm quite diappointed the way they going. It is quite bad that they only have 1 engine choice in the RL. trying to create a X-over suv when they don't even have a V8 and the last I've heard the V10 is posponed along with the NSX. If it's not it's still a huge gap to jump.

[adogg619]

I'd rather them make a V8 then a V10.

[leech9211]

it is a v8

[adogg619]

I know. I was responding to someone else comment on the NSX.

[EnfinityX]

in the nsx id like to see a high revving i6. that would be awesome

[adogg619]

To each his own :)

[xMartin14x]

THIS CAR IS AWESOME!!!!!!

[tranceme24]

People don't like the interior. But, those buttons seem to be straight forward. No nonsense. I like it.

[cchacon031]

its really fast; my uncle got one its nice but too expensive

[FrostedCold]

Car and Driver PLEASE give your videos some character...I'm bored to tears here.

[brywillfraz]

they really should do a road test with that cooler cart. that thing is badass

[pdavbnhs]

what a beautiful car

[MegaAdvocate]

Infiniti! Only infiniti! :)

[mrbenyong]

i really hate the interior

[TheFreewayWanderer]

i like the 2007/8 more. this is pretty gross.

[Texan972]

I'd buy it

[thenext4]

look like a cat fish

[momodragon]

very ugly and very overpriced

[randkalik]

Overpriced compared to what? A VW CC?

[c3t1f13dgoon]

its ugly

[CSIS25]

I like it but i don't like the fact it has a V8 in it

[speedie2295]

wow that's about the same cost as a cts-v that's ridiculous

[supremewhip]

At the end, you still paid over 66,000 for a Nissan.

[randkalik]

If you are dumb enough to pay MSRP, you're comment would be accurate.

[supremewhip]

Right, go on NICO and ask how much people are paying for their F50S new from the dealers. Should'nt be too far off. Thanks for playing.

[KPKonliner]

it look like a plane !

[BABYGODZILLA2009]

Over priced!!! i would buy that small scooter that dude drives around the Infinity lol.

[scaglietti03]

i prefer that new infinity that the bmw suv

[87TAGTABANDIT]

to overpriced

[mwinda]

this car has been on the market for 8 months, and you don't see it on the orad.The old ones are still more popular and look better

[bkvintagecorp]

great car... i dont think its over price at all, anybody who wants a cross over suv wit 390hp should be ok with spending that much, if not just get the fx35 and call it a day...

[devildriver024]

over priced!!

[fluoridemakesudumb]

agree, great car but overpriced.

66k is too much for a crossover.

[alexbyczynski]

my gfs daad has this car, beautiful interior
