Replying to: fear_my_catz (Dec 18, 2008 9:25 am) Situation in Los Angeles is different. I counted the company parking lot this morning there are at least 10 RX 350 among maybe 40. The percentage is higher on the roads. I think at least 15% in Los Angeles.FX 35 maybe in range of under 5%.

Replying to: fear_my_catz (Dec 18, 2008 9:25 am) Are you asking what do we think of the 2009 FX? If so, here's my opinion: I don't like the new body - namely the front end. It's just too much, the vent is wrong, the bottle nose 'thing' is wrong and the headlights are over the top and just plain Ugly.   Inside is a different story however. I think the interior is excellent. Good stuff inside tech wise and layout. Very nice.   But driving an '09 is just 'ok'. I was not blown away by the pickup, the ride, etc. I may have to defect to BMW. I don't think I want to be seen driving this model. And I predict the 2009 FX will get a quick makeover (say two years) due to low interest. We'll see. Replies to this message: bmlexus (Apr 26, 2009 11:44 am) jayrandall (Apr 28, 2009 7:52 pm)

Replying to: dealmaker2008 (Dec 16, 2008 7:32 pm) It varies from state to state and dealership to dealership. I bought my FX in California and I was only charged $55. I think that's the state law. If you're paying over $100, then the dealer is probably marking it up. Unless it's a fixed amount required by law, the doc fee should be negotiable.

Replying to: fear_my_catz (Dec 18, 2008 9:25 am) I live in Vegas and I've only seen one 09 out on the roads. It's clear the 09s are not a big seller. From what a couple of salesmen told me, the 09s are not moving much at all because there're basically no incentives, rebates, or special APRs, other than the $4000 loyalty cash program for previous Infiniti owners. And the lease payments are pretty high too. But I heard Infiniti is coming out with a special lease program for the 09 FXs..

Replying to: RisingStar (Dec 19, 2008 12:47 am) Rising star Sales for the 09 FX35 is hurting due to reasons cited. With incentives and similar trims, ithere is a price gap of almost 7K or more between the Lexus R35 and the Infiniti FX350 and more for the non Infiniti owners. It is just a no brainer and they must recognize this so that they can move their units. They should close the gap to say 2K and make it interesing.

Replying to: dealmaker2008 (Dec 19, 2008 6:42 am) Dealmaker: I don't think it's just the $$$ gap that is driving potential buyers away from the FX - I think it is the styling and handling of the 2009 FX. Replies to this message: dealmaker2008 (Dec 19, 2008 10:39 am)
#1425 of 1591 observation in the mall parking lot by fear_my_catz Dec 19, 2008 (9:55 am)
when I visit the local Costco it seems that every other car is a Lexus RX350 (or 330 or 300). No 2009 FXs whatsoever, though there are at least 2 Infiniti dealerships in close proximity. As I mentioned before - very few 09's on the street. I was offered 2008 FX35 black/black with 13500 miles for $29K at a local dealership. I passed. I'll wait till Infiniti comes up with some incentive for the 09's.

Replying to: jayrandall (Dec 19, 2008 9:18 am) Jay, Your are correct. The RX is still an old reliable SUV in the market for years. It is also the same reason that people prefer the highend Toyota(Lexus), Honda(Acura) and Nissan(Infiniti) in that order.
