Bros, you're yarning puan! Infiniti fx35 is never a SUV. Infiiti.com (official website of infiniti), cars.com, Kelly blue book and even us news and world reports all regard Infiniti fx35 as an SUV. You're even arguing with experts and manufacturers of the car.
Just accept that you didn't know this. After all, no man is an encyclopedia of knowledge.
You're telling me the difference between a CUV and SUV; is that the subject of discussion? I've shared from a reliable source (cars.com) a screenshot where it's clesrly stated that the car is an SUV. I'd share more from other reliable sources. Share your reliable source let's see if it's a CUV.

You've refused to listen to all reason so I will not be replying you after this. These cars are labelled as SUVs because that's how the companies want the public to perceive them.

If you can't see where marketing and sales come in, then you have issues with your reading comprehension.

They are crossovers, simple!

It's the same way Mercedes labelled the CLS and GLE as coupes even though they aren't. Don't be obstinate. Your stance is as nonsensical as people who claim genders different from Male/Female even though there are biologically only two genders (irrelevant semantics aside).

Those cars are built on sedan platforms, as such they are crossovers. Argue from now till tomorrow, you wouldn't change the facts.

If everyone says Obi is a girl, does that become proof that Obi is a girl. Does Obi have a penis? Yes. Does Obi have other male biological traits? Yes. Then Obi is a bloody boy.


Edit: Here's a screenshot of reputable car magazine referring to the FX35 as a crossover. See, I can play the game too.

seems you are also wrong too grin

The fx is a crossover SUV not a CUV or SUV per say. Even the manufacturers are confused how can a fx first and second generation be called an SUV, ko joor rara; D

I have been in the fx35 it doesn't drive, handle, look or perform like an SUV. I did just categorise it as a CUV the manufacturer is just trying to be mischievous.

How can the makers be confused? Is it your car? Na you make am? Person wey make am tell you wetin him make you say he confuse. Oga, carry iron go make your own na. grin

Crossover SUV or Compact SUV or mid-size or small; ogbeni, na SUV. It's not a CUV.
By the way, I didn't say it's not a crossover SUV or you can quote me where I said that.
By the way, if I tell you this is beef, do I need to explain to you if it is from a cow or bull? That's not the argument. The argument is it is a beef not a chicken.
If you need me to explain that to you then I'm sorry because you can ask Google to help you with that.

funny you, a crossover SUV is same as a CUV just like tire and tyre are same. grin

don't get it twisted the only thing that identifies the fx as an SUV is its ground clearance every other thing says it's a CUV.
If the argument was about the subaru forester now I will jejely stay away but mere looking at this fx all indications point to a CUV. Funny enough the identical sibling nissan murano is also called a crossover SUV or crossover vehicle, I am right after all nissan/infiniti is confused in car nomenclature

One more reply because I hate losing arguments. grin
You're arguing with subjective statements as evidence--subjective because magazines and the company can choose whatever they want to call it--so I'll introduce logic into this. The laws of logic are infallible.

In logic, if A=B=C, then C=A, B=C, and A=B.

Agreed? Of course, that's the first law of logic.

If
A=Crossover
B=Raised car built on a sedan's platform.

It's a universal truth that A=B, as a Crossover=Raised car built on a sedan's platform.

C=Infiniti FX35

C=B.
Another universal truth, the FX35 is a raised car built on a sedan's platform.

If C=B and A=B, C=B=A.

C=A

Therefore the Infiniti FX35 is a crossover because it's a raised car built on a sedan's platform.

It's obvious that you don't know anything about the Infiniti fx35. First, it's an SUV; secondly, it's faster than your Lexus ES330.
The 2006 Infiniti fx35 does 0-60mph in 6.79 secs with 280hp
Your Lexus ES330 (at most a 2006) does 0-60mph in 7.75 secs with only 218hp

Did I read you write that the Infiniti fx35 is not fast? Don't let it's heavy looks deceive you. It will disgrace your Lexus ES330 on the highway.
Mind you, top speed of the infinitive fx35 is 130mph or 209.215kmph while your Lexus Es330 does 143mph or 230kmph but trust me, your Lexus may go kaput before it does 230kmph. Here comes where weight and torque plays important roles. The Infiniti fx35 has it with suspension and handling that will make it really hard to somersault.

U definitely don't know sarcasm when u see one. Anyway the fx35 might be an SUV it it's no true SUV. SUV means sports utility vehicle, now where's the utility when it doesn't even have a good cargo space or headroom or ground clearance. Of course it's faster than an average SUV, I drove it for 3 months when I helped a friend abroad to get one. No denying I enjoyed it, but if I am to go long distance journey with an SUV or cuv and have to choose between fx35 ,Lexus rx330 or Acura MDX, I won't even go near the fx35 because the ride is too harsh and it has a notoriously huge blind spots plus the head room is just unbearable for me.

The GLE 350 is the only GLE the fox can compete with
Maybe the 400$450 will compete with the fx37 and 50s
The 63 is no no

That VQ won best engine of the year seven consecutive times. It's one of the best V6's ever made and was way ahead of its time.


Want a fast, fun, cheap car? The G35 is always the answer. It's a sports sedan and is pretty much the same as certified sports cars like the 350z. It's also mostly a tuned down version of Nissan's legendary GTR supercar.

Nissan basically struck gold with the G, although it's a shame the Q's aren't ideal successors.

How can you put a GTR with all these nonsense wanna be sports car. What sacrilege, so because the GTR has a Nissan badge now abi.

well if you want to compare a 2008 GTR to 2018 C63s because that's the only GTR the benz can catch up with. The M series too though the M5 seems to have a very potent engine.

Lol, the GTR is a legend in its class. Manages to compete with Lambo's and Porsche's twice its price. That said, cars like the E63s and M5 will give it a run for its money.

Lol, I said the E63s. And to clarify, there's a C63 (469 HP) and C63s (503HP). There's only an E63s, though. (603HP) cool

C63s does 0-60 in 3.9s. E63s does it in 3.0s.
So yes, the E63s is substantially faster than the C63s. That goes without saying, of course. E>>>C.

For some more perspective, the Nissan GTR does 0-60 in 2.9s. Shows how much of a beast the E63s, since it's much heavier.

The 2015 GTR nismo is quoted by nissan as 2.5secs unfortunately the real life time drivers ever got was 2.7, only the 2013 GTR nismo could do the 2.5 with launch control a feature nissan disabled in the 2015 model.

but I picked the E63 or E63 S wagon because it's easier to come by than a 2018 AMG GT C roadster which also has 0-62 at 3.0secs.

2018 BMW M5 is still faster than benz 2.9secs

U keep saying 12 Honda, u probably mean Accord. That's because accords, altimas, camrys, sonatas are all mid size family cars. Infinity g35 is a midsize family/sports sedan, when u compare it to an Acura then u have a fair comparison. An 06 Acura will give it a fair competition.

Out of curiosity, can u tell us the many things the 06 g35
