Is it just me or is this "allroad kinda looking" car a real sweet looking vehicle?

If I didn't have the allroad, this thing would tempt me....
for one thing, their dealership is less than 5 min from my office vs. 25min on the freeway. And service is a big issue sometimes.
The FX continues the trend of Japanese vehicles having higher content for the money than their German counterparts. If you recall, the German vehicles didn't (and many still do only grudgingly) even have cupholders at first. Lexus has helped hold the line on MBZ prices. So this FX with it's rear view camera, dubs, great handling and motor, will put pressure on the next generation X5 and ML. It's good for the consumer.

I guess this is why there are so many different cars...
I saw it in person at the Detroit show and I was very unimpressed. And I can tell you that I'm not an Audi ***** as I was also less than impressed by the Pike's Peak concept -- looked more like a Lexus than an Audi to me.
I can't believe that you guys like the interior. Made me feel like I was sitting inside a cheap boombox. Yes, the leather on the seats was nice, but the dash was horrible.

I saw one while driving the other night and had no idea
they were already out.. Well, from the back at NIGHT it looked cool... Tried to get a good look at the front and from the little that I saw, I didn't like it.. I just visited the Infiniti site.. humm.. Honestly? I think its ugly.. The interior is nice, not crazy about the wheel, I would have to see it in person though... Its alright.. but I like the AR more.. much more..

I remember a couple of months ago, they have a big infinity commercial gig setup by Broadway in Oakland, I think it's around 12th or 14th ( where the all the tall buildings are )...
That makes sense....
Pretty good lookin car in person, seems a little smaller than the ar...
