yeah my mom as a 2009... i like it alot.. i think the refresh of body style they did a few years ago made it look better than before .. the car feels alot like driving a automatic Z or G i mean seriously thats the #1 thing i can say about it.. its got good power for the V6 version and the paddle shifting is exactly like a Z... its a pretty good suv for the price i like it over the X5 for sure and the lexus is to soccer mom.. so for that range of luxury SUV i cant think of something i would rather have not to sure about the FX50 i dont think they sell many of the V8's or atleast i havent seen many on the road they priced a little high i think..

but yeah the only complaint i have about it and this might just be me is... well it makes me sick to ride in the back seat of it... i dont get that way in any other car or suv.. but the few times ive rode with my parents for a bite to eat i feel dizzy riding in the back of the thing.. weird i know... but if im driving or up front its great... im not to big on the wood grain though i would rather have atleast black wood or aluminum on a black on black car ( thats what color my mons is) but other than that great interior i think but if youve sat in a G37 then youve sat in one of these...

so i would say pick one up for sure.. but just ride around the block in the back first to make sure you dont have that issue like i did

i like the driving, the style etc

but wouldnt buy one
going into the back seats is realllly annoying

you have to twist your foot to get it out. its just not easy. Its a hell of alot easier to get into the murano.

The space the from the seat, to the door pillar in the fx35 is like prolly 8"

My wife has an FX45. I love it.

My have several friends with FX's and they are cool cars.

The only bad things about them is that they get terrible MPG and they can get pretty expensive when you load up the options.

I carpooled with one of my friends for 8 months in a 90 mile round-trip commute and it was really enjoyable, I would love to pickup one as a daily if it wasn't for the terrible MPG.
