Replying to: foxrun (Nov 12, 2006 3:45 am) lol, you're funny. That's right, I contacted Infiniti.com USA and Edmunds.com, and had them "strategically bump" the prices up and down for me so you could be wrong. lol, which btw... you still are, lol.

Replying to: heyjewel (Nov 12, 2006 1:52 pm) "FWD FX350" I'm still trying to figure out that one. Replies to this message: steve_ (Nov 12, 2006 10:09 pm)

Replying to: scootertrash (Nov 12, 2006 4:27 pm) Enough - we have a MKX Prices Paid and Buying Experience discussion started up, so please go there and toss around the real numbers. Meanwhile, let's get back to what the editors said about the SUV eh? You know, the topic? thanks!

Replying to: heyjewel (Nov 12, 2006 1:52 pm) It's called a typo. lol. But the prices are correct. That said, we can continue this discussion in the thread suggested by our host.
#30 of 63 $9,000 more than an Edge? by coldcranker Nov 13, 2006 (6:05 pm)
How does Ford expect people to pay $9,000 more for the MKX over the Edge? I don't get it. Edmunds.com: MKX: $34,000 Edge: $25,000 Replies to this message: akirby (Nov 14, 2006 5:54 am)

Replying to: coldcranker (Nov 13, 2006 6:05 pm) Similarly equipped, the difference is only $5K. I think they priced the MKX against the RX350 (it's $3K less) and since they're only trying to sell around 30K/yr it might work. The Edge is less than the Murano so maybe it's underpriced.
#32 of 63 MKZ vs. MKX by mschmal Dec 14, 2006 (7:27 am)
The mkZ and the mkX DO NOT have the same powertrain. they may share an engine, but the MKZ still uses the Aisin tranny. The Edge uses the new 6F tranny developed by Ford and GM. I have driven both vehicles and the MKX is MUCH smoother shifting than the MKZ. It feels just like a CVT it is so smooth. Mark. Replies to this message: bigt (Dec 17, 2006 10:52 pm)

Replying to: mschmal (Dec 14, 2006 7:27 am) I am in the middle of deciding between the Z, X, or Edge. Tough choice but I am planning on getting one of them. Does it make sense to just order one and use my X-plan pricing or wait until the dealerships start getting these in quanity?
