2009 Infiniti FX50

The original FX was a muscle ute built from the same bones as the Nissan 350Z. The new FX50 is more athletic and refined and it does so by putting 390 bucking horses under your foot. Paired with a seven speed automatic, the new transmission has incredibly smooth shifts under light throttle, but give it the boot and the FX50 moves out like a hot rod. With muscle comes technology, and the FX50 has plenty of it. For the eco-conscious, the FX50 features a climate-control system that sniffs out air pollution and automatically switches to recirculation. For the speed-minded, this FX includes intelligent cruise control that maintains a driver-preset distance between you and the car ahead of you and can even slow the vehicle to a dead stop. Add this with a package that’s wrapped with an exterior that looks like a future concept– with enough leather to make you feel like you are sitting in the lobby of the Mandarin Oriental… [from $56,700 at infiniti]
