zoomzoomr nailed it. These news Nissan designs are the same old same old with more creases and parts that just make them uglier than the previous generation. Take a look at the side shot on the FX35. no thanks, and I was a fan of the first one.

And it remains a cheap, flimsy econobox for losers. The Buick Enclave and Saturn Outlook are a million times better than this jap crap.

(MIKE) You maybe right. The FX may be too small for them. I guess they’ll stick to their; Suburban’s, Escalade ESV’s & Navigator’s.
Remember the good ol’ days when every jealious woman & angry lesbian’s battle cry was………”only men with small dicks drive high performance cars”.

Well..I wonder what women who drive these behemoth SUV’s are thying to compensate for?!

It seems that Nissan/Infiniti’s has a distinct strategy for its 2nd-generation designs (**** 2.0, if you will) including the G coupe/sedan, this FX, Altima, Murano, and apparently the upcoming Z.. at first, they look very similar to the outgoing models, but each has acquired additional bodywork creasing/sculpting/detailing that IMO subtly detracts from instead of enhancing the overall shape. I’m hopeful that more Nissiniti future products will start breaking the mold again (and become more distinct from each other).. subtle reworking of the current Sentra and Versa, for example, will definitely not be enough.

Do we really need this, with all the crossover SUV’s already out there.

Agreed, this thing is Heinous….interior is too clustered, and the exterior does not flow with those god awful headlamps…they butchered this thing.

They took a nice design (both interior and exterior) and ruined it! I much prefer the older (original) generation. This looks too cheezy. Interior is a huge dissapointment – both in this car and G35.

badass – I agree that most little women end up driving huge SUVs, but not this one. The sightlines are so bad out of the back that they won’t touch it. I had an ‘05, and my 5′4″ wife refused to drive it. She also thought it was too loud, and the dash was too technical (and why did I marry her again?).

Otherwise, I was really hoping that the stupid gill by the front wheel was for the V8 version, and the 6 would come out cleaner. No such luck…

zoomster, to answer your question – they don’t justify anything. Most of people on the site like FX and I don’t. Since I don’t like FX I ain’t byun’ it. However I like EX and that’s an opportunity for Nissan to sell. it is the same car with different shell/body. The profit from sale justifies the cost of development of 2 bodies. The higher price is Nissan’s prediction that more people will like FX then dislike it.
To the consumer the cost of ownership is the same. It is Infinity – their cars are leased not sold. When car is leased the payment is calculated based on difference between current cost and cost in the future. It is presumed that more expensive car will cost more in the future as well. Consumer is borrowing the difference and the difference may be the same or near the same, therefore cost of the lease are either identical or very close to each other. I may lease EX and you FX, but our monthly outlays should be quite similar.

I don’t understand how Infiniti plans to distinguish this base FX from the EX35.. it may be a little bigger, but it shares the same platform and engine. So how do they justify the higher price? Sure, the power/performance difference between a FX35 and FX37 would be negligable.. but the bigger number would have done a lot for image when sitting on the lot next to the EX.

Yeah, the EX looks very good. They didn’t mention the around view monitor on the fx. I thought all the new models would get it.

By: autonut

autonut — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 22:49:42 +0000

I did not like the current/previous model and this one did not fall far from the fugly tree in my book. Interior is nice. I do like sister EX a lot.

I like the interior better but the outside isnt as smooth as the previous generation Its really agressive and may turn some shoppers off
At least its not from Gm Ford or TCG

Looks wise I like the old one more.

since the new FX is so FUGLY, the least they could do is put the 3.7. points for the magnesium shifter, though. and for Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All Electronic Torque Split – the biggest abbreviation in the industry.
