Nope

Sorry guys, proud owner of G37S and its a beautiful car. Infiniti is nice and much more reputable, luxurious and all the other extra crap. But my weekend ride will rightfully kick any truck and most cars to to the curb. 2006 Jeep SRT8, tastefully modded. Me and my pops bought it together and holy ****ing cow.. Anybody wants to run, LETS DO IT FX50!

AWD SRT8 FTGDMFW

How about something along the lines of "crossover"? That's what they usually call them... Or you can go with what BMW would call it, a "Sport Activity Vehicle." Then again, that's what they call the X5 (not sure if they label the X3 the same way), and I'm not sure if the X5 is built like a regular SUV or like a car/crossover. I think "crossover" works fine.

I had to take the G in last Saturday for an oil change. It was raining pretty hard so I didn't test the FX50 (although I wanted to). I will say that IMO it looks better in person than in pics similar to most our reactions when we saw the G37 for the first time.

it's fun to drive the FX50. SRT-8 jeeps are monsters though. We're getting more people on the FX50 than FX35's

Kenny I might stop by someday to test drive the FX50... I would bring my G37, but I'd rather bring the beast(srt8) and have a friendly duel with you. You drive the FX. haha.

Wezbian and I drove one at the Sacramento Infiniti about a month ago. it had JUST gotten there and passed it's delivery inspection. Still had plastic on the door panels and all that.

It's FAST, but it doesn't FEEL fast. Too subdued... but you can see that you're moving based on your surroundings.

the coolest features are the Around-View-Monitor and Lane Departure Prevention... I could see myself just setting cruise and LDP on a drunken ride home from the bar.
