October sales of the X3 were 99. I guess no one really got a chance on getting the new 2011 X3s yet. From what I understand, production of the outgoing 2010 X3 stopped in the summer, so these are prolly left over inventories.

These are the sale of the SUV line of Infiniti's line up:
QX56 - 1,157
EX - 751
FX - 920

QX56 is a new refreshed model that have had positive reviews, so that is prolly why it sold well.

The FX have had a MSRP price drop for the 2011 model to compensate for poor sales.

The EX is still on the 2010 model until the 2011 models come to dealerships soon. Also there is a price hike for the 2011 EX.

The 2.0T Q5 is treating my family well. No real complaints like I've see on this forum. No regrets. Perfect for my wife and child while she does errands during the week, and when I drive it on the weekends on longer trips. At a superficial level, it definitely gets some praise and attention when we drive the Q5 in NYC, and when we go to church every Sunday. I wouldn't have expected that considering that I see alot of $100,000 cars (S class, Cayenne, Bentley, etc.) driven around me... let alone a crossover of all cars.

I will update this post next month as usual. I am a big numbers guy.

Those are only US numbers, worldwide, the Q5 sells a lot better than the RX350. Its just us Americans who want a relaible and boring car and pay extra for their dealer to kiss their ares
