The Infiniti FX35 crossover SUV continues into the 2008 model year essentially unchanged from previous years, with the exception of a few new standard features, such as XM satellite radio, and some updated interior and exterior colors. The long, wide vehicle crouches on 18-inch wheels and features a front midship engine placement, which positions the engine behind the front axle but in front of the passenger cabin to help improve the vehicle's balance and handling.
There's no mistaking the FX35 on the open road, with its mash-up of SUV and sports car design features. The passenger canopy, positioned rakishly behind the long hood, gives the vehicle a decidedly sports car-like appearance. Inside is a roomy, sport-inspired cockpit with a contoured, bolstered driver's seat, a tilt steering wheel that moves the gauges also to ensure a clear view of the road, and memory settings for the driver's seat, steering wheel, and exterior mirrors.
Of course, this being an Infiniti, the FX35 is available with many of the automaker's most cutting-edge features, including a RearView monitor, a wireless Bluetooth hands-free phone system, the Infiniti Intelligent Key, and the Infiniti Controller for accessing the audio, navigation, and information systems.
The 2008 FX35 is available in both rear-wheel-drive and intelligent all-wheel-drive versions, with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 275 horsepower. A five-speed automatic transmission with a manual shift mode feature is standard.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2008 INFINITI FX35 seem to really enjoy the mix of luxury and sporty performance this vehicle offers. They appreciate the powerful handling, comfortable ride, and upscale features like heated seats and a sunroof. However, some drivers have noted issues with gas mileage and a lack of space for families and pets, which can be a downside for those needing more room."
We love driving this car. Very reliable in all weather conditions. Heated seats and sunroof are nice features. Feels luxurious. Sits higher above the road than a car but feels less bulky than an SUV. great crossover. Not much not to like about it.
December 27, 2012The styling and handling of the vehicle is awesome. The seats wrap around you and the finishes are top notch compared to models of the same year and class. Sporty handling with great power. Gas mileage was a disappointment. I would recommend to anyone.
April 7, 2013Ive wanted this truck since they came out, the 08 is nice change the oil with fully synthetic oil. She rides nice

August 23, 2020Overall, I enjoy the ride, power, gas mileage, and look of the car. The biggest negative for me would be the size. I have 2 dogs, a 2 year old, myself and my mother. There is just never enough room.
August 12, 2012The vehicle was possibly leaking oil. There was a strong smell of burning oil when it was running. Decent price. could definitely use some TLC on the inside.
