2012 INFINITIEX35 Journey For Sale

This is definitely a great vehicle. Get the 2017 before they are gone. This car rides great, phenomenal acceleration and creature comforts abound. This car holds the road like a sports car due to the rear wheel drive. I dont live in the snowbelt but they have all wheel drive for those folks. Much has been said about the bad gas mileage,but my trip computer says 24.4 mpg right now (on premium). Admittedly I live in a rural area, but I always use the sport setting in the transmission. I test drove several new vehicles including a volvo xc60 and acura RDX. I narrowed my choice between the RDX and qx50. The RDX has a lot more trunk space (my only gripe about the QX50), rides softer and get better gas mileage. Why did I get the QX50? The qx50 gets oh so sweet handling, 325 hp (0-60 in 5.5), nice comfy room for 4, a great quiet ride, and such a sweet deal on the car. I bought it for less that a loaded CRV which is not a comparable vehicle. I got the premium and premium plus packages. These vehicles are the last of the genuine powerful breed. The QX50 redesign has a 268 hp turbo 4 where this one has the Nissan FM v/6 (read Z car engine and platform). I have had and loved 4 Hondas in my life, but this QX50 is by far my favorite vehicle. These vehicles are now heavily discounted to move them off the lots. Get the deal of a lifetime and discover the most hidden gem in the automotive industry. I know I love mine. MPG is not the be all and end all of every vehicle. When you need to pass you dont have to decide should I go now or not like I used to have to do with a 4 cylinder. I feel safer now, even my accord coupe v/6 did not have this much power. Sure, I wish it got 30 mpg, but the power it has and the gas mileage it gets is like skipping a fast food restaurant meal one day a week for the premium and less fuel mileage difference. That is one sacrifice I am happy to make!!

This SUV has: 325hp VQ37 engine that can rev over 7k, Engine mount behind front axle to create near 50/50 weight distribution, Rev-Match 7 speed transmission, Forge Aluminum Double Wishbone front suspension and Forge Aluminum Independent Multi-link rear suspension (you can only find this setup on Porsche Macan and Audi SQ5 and it aint cheap), Hydraulic power steering for best road feedback (instead of modern numb electric power steering), Made in Tochigi, Japan (one of the best assembly factory in the world), and etc..... This is pretty much 90% of Porsche Macan S performance with 60% of its price.

I have owned this car for going on 2 years and have logged over 30,000 in that time. Only issues I have had was a camshaft sensor and the sway bar links. Both easy fixes. A very quiet driving car with fantastic acceleration and stability. Just aren't many of these out there, but if you find a good one they are a bargain in my estimation. My car happened top be a well documented and serviced 2 owner car and that is why it has been very dependable for me.
