  Infiniti fx30ds - 2012 Infiniti FX
  By Al Brown - October 13 - 6:15 pm

  We have had an infiniti fx30ds premium for 3 months now. All I can say its the most eye catching 4x4. We live in cornwall uk and youll be lucky to see an infiniti fx in 6 months. We love the shape and the build quality. The fact that nobody knows what it is. Performance and roadholding are epic. On several occasions we have had new range rover owners, BMW and Mercedes owners observe the car with double takes. This car is an absolute joy to own with bomb proof reliability. If you dont want to be different and drive a totally unique 4x4 this is the car.

  Less car - 2012 Infiniti FX
  By merlin - May 25 - 7:16 pm

  Our 4th Infiniti. Has 6000 trouble free miles.Replaces an 03 FX35 AWD that was trouble free for 115,000 miles. I rate the 03 as an A+ car, and the 12 as a B-. Handles well. Even with 7 spd trans, the mpg is exactly the same as 03: 19.6. Fit/finish in and out has suffered. The 12 noticeably cheaper throughout: floor mats, carpet, headliner, center armrest,wheel/tire size,chrome exhaust finishers. Car feels smaller than 03. Fold out door pockets eliminated. Adjustable center armrest eliminated. Throaty exhaust note eliminated. Dash design has gone down. Multi adjust seats very good,comfortable. Tech package very capable. A very fine car (03) has been very noticeably cheapened 12.

  Solid, capable...but not exceptional - 2012 Infiniti FX
  By in2themystyc - March 29 - 1:10 am

  Overall...like it. But, its really behind the times vis-a-vis technology and options. The motor, design, and fit and finish are all excellent. But, that teeny-tiny sunroof. Really? And the nav? Its horrible. I never, ever, ever use it. The ipod interface is horrendous. No cargo cover unless you pay for it? Cheap. Pay $45K+ for a vehicle and not get a cargo cover? Wow. The overall instrument panel is weak - same as in my previous G35. Boring. Zzzzzz. I dont know if the 13 improved these options or not, but I dont think so. Youd think with as great as this vehicle looks and drives that the attention to detail and available options would be better.

  New model is cheap - 2012 Infiniti FX
  By marcus428 - February 7 - 2:42 am

  This is our second FX. Our first was a 2008 and we loved it! Fast, comfortable great handling and sounded great. The lease ran out so we got a 2012. Mistake. Infinity replaced the 5 speed transmission with a cheap 7 speed transmission. It robs power, is confused, shifts up and down at random and delays during quick acceleration (like when you need to pass a car). The manual function is very dangerous. When down shifting, the transmission disengages and the car free-falls for a full second until the transmission re-engages. Also, after 6 months there will be a foul smell from the AC upon start up. The dealer will recommend turning off the AC for a few secs every time you park. Really?

  Love my FX - 2012 Infiniti FX
  By paulmiceli - January 6 - 11:18 pm

  Ive had my FX for about 2 years and I have about 30,000 miles on it. Overall I really like the car and I cant think of anything seriously wrong with it. I have the premium and deluxe touring package and I love the quilted leather and the 20 inch wheels. The navigation in my opinion works very well but I find it really annoying that its almost unusable when youre driving and I hate using voice commands. I think this car is good for someone who doesnt always have people in the car or need a lot of cargo room. The backseat space and trunk is descent but not great but it works perfectly for me. I also like that theres not a ton of them around so theyre not so commonplace.
