Think about this...in 2011, the mustang finally came out with the 5L again. That mustang did a 0-60 in 4.6seconds...this Infinty from 2009, also weighing 1200lbs more, does it in 5 seconds flat. (Both numbers from Car and Driver). That's ridiculous. As for 1/4 mile times...the Stang is at 13.2, the FX50 is at 13.6. Same displacement and cylinders, 1200lbs heavier, and only 0.4sec slower in the 1/4

Still looks modern till this day. They were literally the first ones to have a sporty like SUV in the market back in 2003 with the FX35 and now it's the hottest selling segment.

2013 Infiniti FX50S here. Holding on to mine as well.

It's such a shame that Infiniti has lost its way. From early 2000s to mid 2010s, Infiniti was the Japanese luxury car brand to own hands down. Now they put the pathetic CVTs in there vehicles, every car/suv that was sold with the legendary VQ 3.5L V6 is now a 4 banger turbo. For anyone that owns a G35/37...FX35/37/50...hold on to them, they're just shooting up in value, and still look and perform fantastic to this day

Owned a 2005 G35x for many years, and now have a 2016 QX70, but that's the last vehicle they made that I'd consider buying. They WERE the best performing/handling Japanese brand, with some of the best V6 engines on the planet, but what they offer now isn't all that special, and can be found in any Japanese brand.

Same color inside and out as in this video. 2010 with 160k. Bought 5 years ago from local dealer, where it was originally sold and serviced. Thought of selling, but I will definitely keep based on what I am reading. I still love to drive it, just have other cars, and with the price of gas now, I drive the electric most.

Pls send me the sale link, I'd love an opportunity to buy. Thanks!
