Best SUV Ive owned - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By Sarah - September 3 - 3:56 pmI just for the QX56 two weeks ago and it is a joy to drive. After driving a QX4 and a Toyota 4Runner, both of which were fine, the QX56 is the car Ive waited for. The ride is smooth and firm for such a big vehicle. I love the power of the V8 and the fact that I can take just about anything (and anyone) wherever I need to go. With only one child and one dog, my husband thinks Im nuts to drive such a big SUV, but I love how safe I feel. This is the 4th Infiniti weve owned and we cant imagine buying any other brand of car.

Waiting to Exhale... - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By Emma - March 22 - 5:20 amIve been looking for a luxury SUV for quite some time. I didnt want to be like the rest. I saw an ad for the QX56. I immediately had to go see it! I called my husband and we went to go test drive the suv. It didnt even ride like an suv. Comming out from a Tahoe to a QX56 was a HUGE change. This drives like a lux car. I know well look to buy a small car to add to our addition for my husband. Were in love with the Infinities! All of them. All the safty features are there. We have 2 kids and I feel very secure with the added security. Our kids will have Infinities to drive off to college (station wagon). I can finally exhale.

Lemon - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By Lemon - February 6 - 9:13 amAfter reading all the other reviews im starting to belive that i was just sold a lemon. My drivers seat is comfortable although the other 6 are not. In the Winter i cannot get into the car because my handles become frozen shut (From Long Island - not cold temps). This Suv is absolutely top 5 for fuel guzzlers. Also, the wood pieces fall out of the doors when you close it. Like most other SUVs when opening the windows its like taking off in a plane (these windows are by far the worst at of all the suvs in its class).

No Regrets - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By NCLUDE - August 10 - 11:23 amI was looking for a nice, comfortable car (Lexus ES350 or Infiniti G35) and ended up getting the QX56 for its great ride and ability to hold our family of 6. Compared to others in its class, the QX56 is the overall champion IMHO. Great ride, looks tough, lots of standard equipment and the price is great compared to others (Escalade and Navigator). I considered the 2007 Escalade but by the time you added on the option it topped 62k. You get much more vehicle for the money with the QX56 and also, not everyone else has one. For those trying to decide among full-size luxury SUVs, I dont think theres a better deal out there. In the end, you just have to drive one, then youll have no doubt.

I Love My Car - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By Yolanda - April 21 - 11:56 amSo far it has been great! This is my first Infiniti QX56, previous 2 SUVs were Lincoln Navigator and Ford Expedition. Have also driven an Escalade much. Not the get up and go power of the Escalade but a close second. More comfortable than the Escalade or my previous SUVs. Great construction--sturdy, Navigator moldings didnt hold up well to my 3 girls and their numerous friends pilled into "moms taxi." Did have an immediate gear shift problem within hours of receiving the new car, fixed within 24 hours at the dealer. Gear was slipping out of drive and brakes locking up until motor turned off (not good in traffic)--no problems since first day. Love the look, size, engine power.

Good used luxury SUV - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By pnad - January 18 - 11:32 amI wanted big and comfortable. Shopped Lexus, Cadillac and Lincoln. The QX56 was cheaper than the Escalade, bigger than the GX470 and more reliable than the Navigator. It is a little odd looking from the outside, but looks great from the drivers seat. And oh what a drivers seat it is... Its like wearing new shoes WITH new socks. So comfortable. Passengers LOVE the second row seats. The 3rd row, like most, is better suited to smaller kids but I could sit back there for a 30 minute ride. Bose stereo sounds awesome. AUX input is strangely missing, but you can connect a phone/ipod whatever to the DVD input. Mileage isnt great, but it is the same for most of these trucks. Read up about brake issues on these trucks. Same for Nissan Titan and Armada. Warped rotors are not a big deal to me. $56ea at the local part store, I dont care if I need to replace them once a year. The other brake issue is the delta stroke sensor. You will want to google that. A sensor goes bad in the brake booster causing the antilock brakes to kick on. Feels like you are trying to stop on ice. I knew it was a possibility so I wasnt freaked out when it happened to me. Truck still stopped pretty good, just had that grindy/vibrating pedal feel. You can clear the fault by simply restarting the vehicle. If it happens a few more times I will look into replacing the brake booster ($180)

Best SUV Ever! - 2006 Infiniti QX56
By Gary Duenas - September 19 - 4:43 pmMy Wife had a Choice of Any type of SUV out there but liked the Nissan Armada. We both saw a QX56 & said thats it! Not knowing it was the same SUV. We Love the Body style, Interior, GPS, Bose system, backup camera & audible warning, easy lifting 2nd row seats, DVD entertainment (added another Headrest DVD system), didnt include Tow Package but decided later not to add one because it Cheapens the look of the vehicle, added 22" Customs Wheels w/Low profile tires, Cold Air Intake and Exhaust system (MagnaFlow) for Fuel efficiency. Only problem that we inccured are that the Sunroofs plastic bracket comes off a lot, Air condition controls and all Passengers windows sometimes doesnt work.
