Pros:
Awesome styling and performance.!
Cons:
Brake squeal is ridiculous. The window trim and mirror housing is Midnight Blue. Would look better black, especially against my black car.
Seat controls not clearly marked.
Review:
I am pleased with performance, but brakes are an embarrassment. Nothing like constant squeaking when driving around in your 40K vehicle. Dealer
insists problem with squeaking was resolved in 2004. Obviously not. Otherwise a truly awesome vehicle.

Pros:
All of it. Get the tech, sport and touring package!
Cons:
Ride might be an issue with some specially with my 20" wheels but the handling takes over that feeling in a positive way.
Review:
I have been with Toyota Lexus BMW & Benz. This is the best yet. Technology packed with awesome handling and power and I'm just talking about
my FX35, more I'm sure with the 45 but I like my Mileage too. I have only had this car for a month but have driven it from LA to SF 3 times due to my
father passing away and this SUV did ease some of the hassle. great car in every respect.

Pros:
state of the art machine in all aspects.!
Cons:
Gas mileage is weak
Review:
3000 mile review. Great car. Fast; responsive handling; great technology: rear view camera, navigation, Sirius all top notch options and
highly recommended. The manual (clutches transmission) is a nice feature, especially through steep grades or just for fun. Gas mileage is very weak-my
vette gets better mileage. The 35 probably does much better on gas but I like the power (check back with me when gas is at $5 a gallon). Not a big
SUV but comfortable for 4 w/o luggage. My opinion, looks better than a stock Cayenne (I think Porsche choked on the wheels), less money, and drives the
same-plus I like Sushi over knockwurst any day of the week. I see a lot on the road all great colors. Only seen one Red one.
