  • Infinitis greatest luxury SUV - 2004 Infiniti QX56
    By -

    The QX56 may be the best SUV on the road right now. Its big (the FX looks like a little kid next to it), its powerful, and it has all the luxury items that are expected of the Infiniti name. Traded in my 02 Escalade for it and never looked back.

    I replaced my junky 1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette V6 Minivan with my New Infiniti 4WD V8 QX56 and I absolutely LOVE it! I test drove all the competitors, Lincoln, Lexus, Caddy & Acura before I bought my QX56 and nobody could touch this beauty. It is not only gorgeous, as attested to by the many very nice complements I receive wherever I drive it, by children and adults; but, it has excellent power to boot. I have 2 Sons who I have to haul to baseball, soccer, football and sleep- overs. So far, it does it all. I had to haul 2 large bookcases and many clothes, books and toys and I simply pulled 3 handles to put all the 3 rear seats down and I fit everything in.

  • The Best SUV on the Market - 2004 Infiniti QX56
    By -

    We test drove between 10 and 15 SUVs from the Range Rover to the Honda Pilot over a 5 month period, many of them 2-3 times. We also read reviews from Edmunds, the New York Times, and Consumer Reports. Our conculsion was that the QX56 is the best SUV on the market by any measure (including price). We have owned the car for over a month now and have not been disappointed. I look forward to driving it and feel almost refreshed after long trips. We are really surprised by the value you get with this car vs. the Range Rover, Lexus, Land Cruiser, Denali, etc. The QX56 has a great ride and the best features for a very competitive price.

    we have had the qx about one month. i am writing this brief synopsis because this was one of the tools in doing my new car research. we test drove and looked at both lexus suvs ..the toyota landcruiser..acura mdx..and the escalade. we kept coming back to the qx56. why we bought it: in our opinion it had the most "bang" for the buck..high quality leather..roomy..auto liftgate (wife loves this) ..navi..powerful sound system..nice interior trim(we only liked the light wood) my biggest draw back: the exterior doesnt seem as "refined" as the toyota or lexus ..however this is growing on me

    this is the best car i have ever owned. the inside is so much nicer than the Navigator, escalade, and toyota seqoua. I love the ride it is very smooth and you can barely hear anythong outside, the engine is very quiet for its size. I have gotten alot of compliments on how nice it is. I love the rear view camera the intelligent cruise control and the electronic rear end door. It is the best car ever made I love it. I have had it for a while now and i havent had one problem with it . This car has my vote.

  • QX-56 First Impressions - 2004 Infiniti QX56
    By -

    Ive got to say that Im impressed with the TRUCK so far. Compared to our 1988 Toyota Land Cruise and our 1999 Ford Expedition-which we still own, the QX-56 is leaps and bounds ahead in terms of sophistication, quality, power, and comfort. That being said, the QX-56 is still a truck albeit a very refined, heavy and powerful one. This car will be my wifes daily driver which she will use to haul our kids around to their activities and our weekly drives to Tahoe once the snow starts falling.

  • The real deal - 2004 Infiniti QX56
    By -

    This is one of the best SUVs I have ever owned and I have had them all. The way it handles on the road is smooth. It is especially roomy on the second row. This is great when traveling with the kids. I was disappointed that the navigation system was not design with the forethought a passenger input. Moreover, the knobs are not user friendly for the temperature. Lastly, the side mirrors should have been power retracable as well as tilted when backing up. The should really improve on the navigation system. As well as power folding third row seat. Overall, it is an excellent and fun vehicle to drive. The kids love it

  • Needs Improvement - 2004 Infiniti QX56
    By -

    Beautiful car poor performance. The vehicle has terrible vibration in the roof. Since my purchase in June 2004 I have had several problems such as brakes, seats, handling, vibration, dvd, and back hatch. Dont waste your money. Infiniti clearly needs to work on the quality if they are going to compete in the luxury suv market. I want to get rid of mine but wouldnt want some other poor sucker get it.
