That I like the Infiniti QX60? Sure it's the first FWD Infiniti in a while, but I think it looks decent. My biggest problem with it is the CVT...

Yup. Head to your nearest eyewash station and clean them out or you may risk partial blindness.

To each his own I guess. It doesn't look horrible, I'll give it that. For a refrigerator on wheels.

Again, we see ourselves heading into the "overly swoopy" design language. Unfortunately the '90s are too fresh for it to be considered retro.

I don't think they're bad either. Why is the CVT your biggest problem? It seems like a beastly, bulging vehicle like this can use all the help it can get in upping the mpgs.

Isn't the best part of Infiniti's that they are RWD or RWD based AWD configurations? I like their unusual styling (I own an M) but a FWD infiniti seems ...

It's FWD?!? So it's a Murano [Altima] now, instead of a G35 SUV? That's a bummer.

I must say, Nissan's CVTs are among the best out there, but if I had to go automatic, I think I would prefer it to have actual gears.

I see this as merely a lifted Nissan Quest. A minivan that's had some changes made so it's not quite so obvious.

It's a hell of a lot prettier than the QX80, that's for sure.

I don't think they get enough attention. I quite like them. They look great, have a nice interior, and Infiniti's lovely 3.7 V6!

I agree. Getting a 5 series BMW or a Merc E class was too obvious of a choice. I like to be different. And the Infiniti interiors are wonderful (so far. 39k miles and counting). It's like a cocoon of leather, w/ the touring package. Most of the Merc E classes people are driving nowadays have vinyl seats!!!!!!! (MBtex)

Do you like the FX35? I know they switched names, but I was too lazy too look it up. =P

I don't personally like crossover SUV's (or SUV's at all really), so I haven't looked into any the model specifics on anything other than a traditional car. Sorry. And yeah, Infiniti's 2014 models require a look up table to figure out what they are equivalent to in pre-14 naming.

My neighbor has one. I hear it's one of the better driving SUV cross over things out there. I really liked their old naming scheme because it was easy to tell what displacement engine it had. Then new names require an extra badge on the side. : /
