  Still like it! - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By InfintiGuy - May 28 - 10:06 pm

  Could not believe my wife still wanted this vehicle after the 04 we rented with the terrible brakes and all the bad reviews we read. A year and a half later - so far, so great. We really like this SUV. There is a little more rattling than we care for. Looking forward to getting the next redesigned model with all the bugs worked out.

  Love the Q56. Has everything we wanted. Plenty of interior room, great design, lots of flexibility, extremely comfortable, handles like a luxury sedan. No buyers remorse here.

  I love this truck, but must always keep in mind that it is a truck. So dont compare to a car, a lot of reviewers do that. at speed, It needs some more refinement lots of noise like a window is open.

  Best of the bigger suvs - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By Susan - September 4 - 2:50 am

  Love the room, and very comfortable; acceleration onto major roadways is surprisingly peppy for this size. Best for long hauls or mainly highway; around town; gas mileage stinks. Best GPS system Ive ever used.

  Infiniti QX 56 - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By Jeff Centers - October 21 - 4:46 pm

  Vehicle is a pleasure to drive. I own numerous German autos and this one is comparable in quality, features, and especially comfort, at half the price. The power band is awesome, the transmission silky smooth, and the driver controls are well placed. Brakes could be better, and it has a pretty good blind spot on the driver side but you learn to accommodate. Overall it was a great purchase and I am proud to drive and be seen in it. It definitely turns heads everywhere we go.

  By DUBAI - April 29 - 11:03 pm

  Great car to have. I have switched from FX45 to the Q56. The only set back is the Quality of the material used in the interior!! i wish if it was like the lexus! Performance is great!!! i cant wait fo the after market parts!! 0-60 is faster that the Range Rover and the X5 4.4!!! I would recommend this car for every one!!

  What a wonderful Truck - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By Pumpkin PH - January 26 - 8:53 am

  Most of the time, the QX56 has felt very smooth on the road and has been extremely comfortable on long hauls to Mammoth. Comfort is great, but still a body on frame truck. Roomy all around. Great 2nd row - limo- like room. Same height and width, but the extra 8" length over the Yukon are surprisingly noticeable. The kids love it room for them, friends, and groceries. Tows like a champ, very comfortable on long trips. The 4wd system is great. No problems in 4 feet of snow or in light off-roading. Having a 4x4 lo range also sold us on this beast. After one year and 20k miles we are very happy. Currently 95k and counting.

  So far Soo Good!! - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By WeBHappy - December 9 - 5:16 pm

  We loved this vehicle from the first test drive. Rented a 2004 for extended test drive and it was terrible!! Brakes felt like we were driving on cobblestones. Took a chance and bought a 2005. We love it and have not had any problems. No other large SUV handles like this. Beats my Q45!!

  To many rattles - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By viking 100 - January 12 - 8:13 pm

  This suv has an overhead console that does nothing but rattle. The noise is so intense that I can not enjoy the true fun of driving this vehicle. In addition the drivers seat offers very little support,it seems to cavein rather than support.Since I took ownership I have had to have the rotors cut on three different occasions. In short, as for quality, this vehicle leaves a lot to be desired.

  QX56 - 2005 Infiniti QX56
  By Infinitiqx56 - October 20 - 12:23 pm

  I went from a 02 Escalade to this. I like 80% of the style and features of the Qx56 better. There are a few little things I do miss like the doors do not lock automatic when you shift into gear. Also I am a big fan of the heated seats and the Qx56 do not get hot enough. I miss the power folding mirrors for parking in tight spots. Over all I like the Qx56 better though. The power lift gate is very cool. Also the third row seat is way better and it folds flat. If any one is in the market for a luxury suv then I would recommend this one for sure. One other note the 4 year 60k mile warrany were also a deciding factor for me. Hope this helps someone out there.
