2013 Lexus RX 350 vs Mercedes-Benz GLK vs Infiniti FX37 0-60 $53K Mashup Review
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
( www.TFLcar.com ) What's the best new all-wheel-drive luxury Crossover that you can buy for $53,000.00? That's the question we wanted to answer in this TFLcar Mashup review. Is it the new and refreshed 2013 Lexus RX 350 or is it the new and refreshed 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 4MATIC or is it the new and refreshed 2013 Infiniti FX37 AWD? The Lexus represents the most popular vehicle in the segment, while Mercedes-Benz is packed full of new safety technology and of course the Infiniti is the most sporty of the three. In this fun TFLcar Mashup review we not only rate all three Crossovers but we also see which one is fastest from 0-60 MPH.

I recently bought the lexus rx350, its really amazing how the road noise is blocked out thats equipped with 15 speaker mark levinson. Recommended car!!
Thanks for the nice comment. Please stay tuned. We've got the new plug-in electric Ford C-Max and SRT Viper this featured later this week.
I'd go with FX37. Sure it's not as luxuries as the Lexus but it won't bore you while driving. And the benz, GLK is just too small of a crossover.
Out of the three, I'd prefer the engine note of the Infiniti over the Mercedes and the lexus

They secretly agreed, but Mercedes paid more for this review
Ive driven all of them and honestly the GLK is the coolest and has the best balance. Its a fast SUV. The Lexus was plain boring. I can see older people liking it, but the looks and driving are way relaxed. The GLK has a cool look and I actually rather the interior of it to the other two. FX is cool as well, but they ride very rough. I bought the GLK and love it. Its a matter of preference.
every day a new video ? this is great. already subscribed
I really enjoy your reviews! Keep up the great work.
You didn't have the Infiniti in Sport mode! Great comparisons, always love your videos.
I really like these comparable mash-ups. Do more of them :)
Oh my favorite it's the 2013 Lexus RX350. Great reviews, I really enjoy them all.
I absolutely love u guys' reviews.
You are most welcome and thanks for watching.
Fresh i just threw Infiniti fx37 (which i own) in the search and you guys are on it.. love it
Fun video, thanks! However, with high end stuff like this, it would be nice for you to speak about cabin noise.
spasibo tebe Andrew, And your friends for the show.
Thanks for this incredible review Roman and Nathan!
We have infinitiqx70 I love it
You go Andre! Thanks guys.
Lexus RX 350 has the best reliability and practicality. The Mercedes doesn't even have push button ignition and every costs extra!!! I traded the Mercedes for the Lexus and
Great Video
Andre needs to have a bigger role in your videos! Good job guys!
I haven't driven the other two but did get to drive an rx350 for a couple days, honestly not a sporty vehicle at all, doesn't like to be cornered but rides like a dream, can't feel any bump and super quiet. Interior is nice.
Lexus is the best in every sense, it's the most reliable, luxurious and stunning original design inside and out.

Thanks. This helps. I was confused between these two. Right now I own a ES330 and need a bigger SUV. was not sure FX or JX is the best one or I should Stick with Lexus.
Hey Roman I love your videos. Would you ever do a video of 2006 Subaru forester XT please. 0-60 and offroad. thanks
So how about the Bluetech GLK? Any chance of a review soon?
I own the fx37 and love it. It's crazy quick for a heavy cross over, and it's has 4 transmission modes. Normal revs to 7400 and fairly smooth, snow mode takes away power and rpm, manual shift and finally sport mode. Sport mode is so fun shift at 8000 rpm or a little higher and halls ass. I also, when driving like a responsible adult, get 17.4 mpg in town and a nice 27.34 on the highway.

@ITunes02 2 years in and oil changes only. It's an amazing vehicle, and I will say in sport mode it shift at 7500 normal driving it shifts at 2200. 0-60 times in sport mode are 5.6 seconds. Again its an under estimated beast for a v6.
thank you for the video
Best Car Overall: RX Most Fascinating: FX Most Insignificant: GLK

Yeah,maybe this description was accurate 5yrs ago though, but, here in 2020, things aren't the same as before, and now, I'm sort of beginning to lean towards the Mercedes.... The city where I live, having a quiet soft ride is much more important than being hash,loud and sporty, so my darling Infiniti might not cut it anymore, thoughts overall styling is really to kill for....however, I think the Mercedes is a sweet balance between the soft riding Lexus and the sporty feeling Infiniti, and on the plus side, ITS A BENZ and here in 2020, that's more of a luxury statement than it's ever been before.
I choose the Infiniti all the way, but excellent review guys.

Excellent review just added more information on cars 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊interior……
You guys also chose the Limited Edition FX37 which has the 21's. Plus they did change something for '13, its a 3.7L instead of the 3.5L. Same as the G37/370z
Luv the Lexus great job guys
I love Lexus RX350
The electronic steering on the 2013 model is better suited to this crossover. But the old car was fine. A little bit numb but than again it isn't designed to drive lie a sports car.
Roman and Nathan need to do more Buy It, Lease It, Rent It or Forget It scales in their current videos.
I have the GLK350 coming from the factory next week. Fully loaded black on black. I drove all three and liked the Benz the best. All three are nice cars.
I own an FX35 and your evaluation is complete bollocks! Works great off road (3ft of snow) with a smooth ride stamped with 20inch rims. I'm a 6'1 driver and all my buddies who are 6'1 are comfortable all around. Being a passenger in a GLK, i'd have to say is the worst back seat experience ever! Thanks for match up, enjoy the show.

Do you still have your car? I looking to buy on Infiniti fx35 2010 Is good car reliability ? Thankfully
I love these reviews. You guys (including Andre, The Mechanic) are quite amusing. I think the Lexus manual might be telling you that knowing how to drive is unimportant, since all the electronic gadgets will perform the task for you. Just sit back and enjoy the scenery. Cheers.
Love all three.
plush luxury (lexus/merc) vs sports luxury (infiniti)...depends on what you want..most people find the RX more practical due to the space, hence the outcome of more RX's, if not the road will be full of impractical coupes and convertibles that are priced about the same...But put the fx37 against the rx350 it will beat it easily...
Thank you!!
i would have liked to see off road footage of those 3 cars .. to see how they perform ..
i fuckin love that infinity!!
When r u going to test the new 2014 acura MDX can't wait! :-P
hey roman and nathan can u plz do a review on the mercedes s350 or 500 regards
can you please do a review on the RX350 F ... how much of an improvement is the F over the regular 350?
I love when you make Andre the comic relief. LOL
I recently saw September 2009 design patents for the Lexus CT200h. The rather spindle-lite inspiration for the December 2009 design selection of the final 2013 Lexus GS exterior. The CT200h design patent, references cars up March 4, 2009(AM One-77), so that's the earliest source of Lexus' spindle grille.
great video, but i think if the prices were for the infiniti and lexus was abit closer to the ml (mercedes) i think that review would be abit more fair in my opinon, because if they did put the ml against these 2 i think it would improve on what they said about its downfall, such as trunk space, horse power, etc
It depends on the car. We launch these cars several times using various techniques and use the most successful when we film. That includes torquing/revving, paddle shifters, short shifting - - you name it.
I always wondered why it took Ford so long to bring the C-Max to the States. Saw it at the auto show a few years back as a non hybird car. I can't wait to see that and the Viper.
nice video
you guys gotta review the 2013 audi q5 with the 3.0 supercharged v6 and 8spd auto.
at least i think it looks the best out of all 3... and not to mention about the sexy exhaust note...
How can you compare the different classes of SUV? It professionally? And what's the point?
Is the Lexus RX 350 F sport 2013-2015 with the 8 speed transmission reliable too or only the 6 speed?
Hi! Folks. I Wanna know the title of this music u just added to ur video. bytheway good job. I m big fan of ur.
should do a comparison with the 2013 Honda Pilot
can you guys do a family crossover review of the nissan pathfinder chevy traverse and the ford explorer!!!!!!!!!
THAT INFINTY FX37 looks so goos thou.
Interesting match up, but buyers of the Infinity are not looking for comfort. The Lex and the Infinity are on two completely different ends of the spectrum. Personally, I love speed, so I would buy the Infinity. I think a better compromise is the Acura MDX, a little punchy plus a good family hauler.
Andre has come a long way 😂
got the 2013 rx as a loaner for the weekend damn i like it LOL
I like your comments I'm clear on that mercedes is much safer around and quality.
Love the review, but why not swap out that crap infinity with the base X3 28i or 35i ?
I own a 2007 and it is amazing but I want to turn it in for the 2013 fx37
These guys are being paid. Fx has 0 complaints and is much faster haven't seen a Lexus suv that can touch an fx even the 450.

Yes its fast but the point is to cover all the bases. I think this is a fair matchup with fair reviews given the intent of the video. Each of these excell in a different area.
7:07, How could you guys do 0-60 in ECO mode in GLK? It starts from 2nd gear...
The FX is SEXY!
i love my 100k plus miles 2010 mb glk350... used to be an audi fan but i love this benz. and im an import mechanic so repairs are easier for me.... have had tondo any yet though knock on wood.
You are great!
Does Nathan hit his head getting in and out of every infiniti? Is that like a ritual he has to do before driving 1?
Where is the Q5 and the ML350?
both are easily recognisable, infact the shorter 'names' of cars like the C series etc make it easier to identify and remember
Lexus is the best car. Luxury and reliable.

+elmer quintanilla and infiniti looks way better
I would drive a Lexus RX 350 over any other SUV on the market. I mean people considering speed as judgement for an SUV...?
Wish they'd make an AMG version of the GLK.
Why did you guys do a 0-60 run in the GLK in eco mode and not sport? And it seems like Nathan brake torqued in the RX and FX but not the GLK. Was that just because Roman was driving it?
is there a particular reason why Lexus is the only car company(that I am aware of) which covers their engine bay full of plastic covers? is it simply to make it look tidy or is there a technical advantage to this? Smooth airflow perhaps? And if so, why many other car companies does not follow suit?
in person the rx is sexy but i like the fact that u did admit it
I am with you on this. I traded the FX for RX350 and i am so happy with the decision.
You guys should do a winter test on those 3 cars to see Which drive better in the snow
infiniti fx37 with no hesitation.

When you drive this thing everyday, you notice every bit of difference. But yes I do agree very little changes. I don't really like the new post 2013 versions. The front end is nice but I feel the back need to be redesigned as well.
I call bs on the Mercedes 0-60. I’ve tested the 0-60 on mine numerous times and it’s always been just a tick under 6.0 0-60.

Are you using sport mode? My fx37 is a lot quicker than what they got. In sport mode it revs to 8000 rpm, normal mode is 7400 and still quicker.

I agree, ita also the best built real SUV for offroad capabilities. I have a 2010
Now that the infinity is not here anymore, the GLK was replaced by the glb, and there still is an extra, do RX (maybe 350l) vs glb (maybe 3 row one) for 60k!
Wouldnt the infiniti JX go against RX? Both front wheel drive family based cars for around the same price
$53k for a GLK? That's about $16k in options. Wow. That's a fully loaded RX.
nathan: "infiniti-good steering feel, really good steering feel, probably best in class". couldnt agree more after driiving every sports suv in market including x5m, porsche , range orver and mercede gle . Infiniti is sportiest suv in market

Wow ,I looking to buy one FX35 2010 ,I hope I take good decisions!!! Thanks
We had all the models from old till new
Out of all of these I would take the RX--- if it was a Mercedes, I would claim the ML 63. If it was the Infiniti fx 37s, I'd take that. It really comes down to what you want from a car.
If you fall asleep it wakes you up....... Remember the last time I fell asleep driving? NEVER
MERCEDES Glk 350 is the best!!! Even in Eco modo.... if they choose sport does better time.
The Lexus is way better than anything else. I have tons of friends and neighbors that have multiple RXs, one even has 3. I have had the dialpad in all my Benzes and have never used it once. Looks cool though.
That's not true infinity fx37 0/60 6.2 second
i love LEXUS RX350 .:)
Well it's all about how fast you can get to Cruze control and hwy traffic. They are all really nice and I've driven them all. I'm getting the 2016 RX, SAFEST NICEST best and most for the money and it works better than the other two combined. Still they are all nice, but the idea that the best is a second or two faster is lame.. I love fast cars, but for a family daily driver fast is not primary.

The 2016 Infiniti QX60 or even the 2016 Nissan Murano are a hole lot safer than the Lexus and are just better in general
