After some noteworthy changes in 2006, Infiniti decided to add a seatbelt reminder and an optional iPod connection to the FX35 crossover SUV for 2007. Otherwise, Infiniti stuck to the tried-and-true formula of slipping an SUV body on a sporty sedan. The FX35 has 4 doors, seats 5, and comes in two trims: AWD and RWD.
If you take a look under the hood, you'll find a powerful 3.5 L, 275 hp V6 engine with 5 speed automatic transmission. The interior has a sloping roof and has a sportier (though less luxurious) feel than competitors such as the Cadillac SRX. Expect fuel consumption to run from 16 mpg in the city to 21 on the highway. Cargo space comes out to 65 cubic feet.
Most drivers would agree that the 2007 Infiniti FX35 performs well for its class and packs plenty of power. However, many would like to see a little more interior and cargo room. Others would like the FX35 to get a 3rd row and a more luxurious interior while losing the blind spots that make driving an interesting enterprise at times. Despite the qualms, most owners like their car and hope that it finds its own distinctive identity in the near future.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2007 INFINITI FX35 have a strong appreciation for its performance and sporty handling, often comparing its drive to that of a race car. Many drivers enjoy the powerful V-6 engine and responsive acceleration. However, there are some drawbacks, including concerns over interior simplicity, high fuel consumption, and issues with the dashboard functionality in some cases."
I thoroughly enjoy driving this vehicle. Its built on the same platform as their G35 sedan, so it drives and handles very much like a car; nimble. You feel the road when you are driving which I like. Engine is peppy, sometimes you really need to ride it hard with the manual shifting to get out of it what you are looking for. Interior could be more plush, but is clean and solid feeling.
January 19, 2008Great driving, incredibly comfortable, reliable, have never had a problem with this car and exciting to drive. You don't see this car all over the roadways like other cars. This car handles well, quick braking and fast response on acceleration.
November 21, 2010Bought it for just long trips but find myself driving it everyday. Company pays for a tank of gas a week so it doesn't hurt too bad. The sound that the exhaust makes is a head turner. You know when I'm passing you.

March 7, 2012Performance of this crossover SUV is good, considering it is a V-6 at 270 HP. It makes a lot of good noise when you accelerate hard, but runs high RPMs at high speeds even with the 5 speed auto. Braking is very good, almost sports car-like. It also handles similar to a softly-sprung sports car, but you pay for it on bumpy roads. The 20" rims also like to follow tracks in the pavement, and a firm hand must be on the wheel at all times. Those 20" rims also make for some expensive run-flat replacement tires - buyer beware. Build quality is great, with absolutely no problems. The exterior caught my eye many years ago in LA when I saw a prototype on the streets and wondered what the heck that thing was! It still looks really good 6 years later and seems to be better than the 2009 restyle. Gas mileage is typically 19-22 MPG, but it is probably on the better side of crossover SUVs. It is fun to drive overall, but can get bumpy off-roading.
January 8, 2009Great proformance and seriously great handling. I have the V6 and it drives quite amazing and its good on gas too. You can't not love the sound of its mufflers!!!
April 24, 2008great ride and acceleration. Built on 350z platform. Exaust tips and 20" chromes make it perfect.
July 1, 2008this car is one of the best cars infinity has ever made its really sleak and fast this car looks like an suv and drives and feels like a low race car. and the huge engine helps to lol.
January 7, 2008Dashboard doesn’t work at all, can’t control anything in the car. Drives good tho
