 I've had the FX35 for a little over a month now and it has been a blast to drive.  Interior layout is very clean & well thought out. Everything flows perfectly.  I know some don't like the exterior but it has grown on me. I would recommend getting the Deluxe Touring package which gives you the 20 inch wheels. The 18s are a bit small compared to the size of the FX.  All the tech features work well. The Nav has room for improvement. You can't use the all the features when in motion. The search function needs to be more customizable.  Its 7spd tranny is way too slow to respond. It hunts for the right gear in traffic. It has slipped a couple of times. They should have left the old 5spd in.
