Newman, we just took in a white X5 with 20" chrome wheels on trade. It’s real clean with 65,000 miles on it. We’re probably not gonna sell it on the lot cause of the miles, but I think I might be able to get it for around $12,000.00 ---

FX for sure, my mother had an 05’ for about a year- I think i drove it more than she did. Excellent overall, but make sure you get the Sport Suspension package, the radio upgrade and the Tech Package for Nav/camera/keyless, etc… The Jeep SRT-8 is not exactly a direct comparison. The Infinity has a little more luxury, but the SRT will wipe the floor with the FX for performance… and you arent touching an SRT-8 for 23K yet. I dont think you are going to touch an FX35 for 23K that isnt either bare bones or mile-flogged. ---

I have driven both an fx35 and a tourag v8. The fx has a nice exhaust note…but then agian so does the v8 rag. the fx looks pretty baller but infiniti interiors never impressed me… It’s too cheap looking. The Rags interior is much better IMO… and it seems vw is hit and miss. the 4.2 litre is a good strong motor and I may be a bit biased but i don’t think the tourag is unreliable. I’ve never driven an x5 but if you want to stay around the 23 mark I don’t know if you will touch a decent one. You don’t want a 3.0 x5…kinda gay. What about a trailblazer ss? they are pretty decent…i wouldn’t say luxo but they are pretty quick and can be had for cheap.
