??? Infiniti QX56 ???

[Sleepy]

So the wife is in love with this vehicle and we are in need of an SUV. Any owners out there? Pros/cons? I'd like some real world reviews before I pull the trigger on one.

[gamehunter]

QX56 is not made anymore they are QX80's now. At least that's what the dealer told my neighbor he just bought his wife a new one and they love it 5.7L engine and he has not had any problem with his so far looks like a pretty good quality ride.

Great vehicle I wish the fuel was better but it's a great suv.

Yup. QX80 has been around for three model years I believe. My wife has an AWD 80 and it is awesome. The only drawback is it is thirsty--14 MPG overall.

Boss owns one. Actually just upgraded to the QX80 or something like that. I have driven it and will say its pretty darn fancy! Smooth ride, spacious, and all the gadgets on the inside are neat. Lol...

They can only have there's serviced in Grapevine due to no service place in Tyler. Although I have noticed quite a few in the area. I'm sure there is more behind there service agreement then I understand. Still not a bad deal for them as the dealer drives to there house, brings a new car for replacement, takes there's to be serviced and returns the next day.

Sweet ride for sure! They also hold there value very well!

I got my wife one.

Pros:
Big motor with TONS of power.

Smoothest riding vehicle I've ever been in. (Better than caddy, navi, BMW...)

Large rear seats with TV's. I'm 6'4" and can lounge around watching hunting DVD's on long trips.

Turning radius is super crazy. It's a big vehicle, but can easily whip into tight parking spots.

All kinds of creature comforts. I find a new button or feature every time I ride in it.

Cons:
Not the best fuel mileage...



My wife travels 50 miles round trip everyday through high density deer FM roads. I wanted her in something big and strong in case of an accident. This is definitely a tough vehicle that is safe and sexy at the same time.

She did hit a deer head on at 75mph if December. Cost $15,500 in repairs. All it did was busy up the front "plastic."

They are pricey, but you won't find a better, safer ride!

Very expensive to maintain but a very nice vehicle.

[Sleepy]

any known issues they're prone to?

[huntinag96]

My wife drives one. Love it for the most part. Biggest negative I have with it are the blind spots. Worse than any other vehicle I've ever seen. Other than that, I highly recommend.

[huntinag96]

Infinity service is fantastic by the way

[tigerscowboy]

Bro n Sis n law have one of the 1st ones. No issues and no warranty requests.

[tigerscowboy]

Good Luck.

any known issues they're prone to?

Windshields are known to break. . They are close to $2k to replace as well. Ooooooof.

Would recommend buying from Sewell. They're awesome to deal with. Bought a qx60 for my wife. No complaints and nicest car we've had.

If you can convince your wife , get a loaded Nissan Armada and save a bunch. Same vehicle but not as nice trim.
