But then again as you said, different people = different priorities.
Yes, it takes creativity, which makes it special. And it's slammed to the ground, but can "magically" raise when he is driving it, so "handling, speed, and aerodynamics" aren't sacrificed. It also has twin turbo, so I don't think speed is an issue.

The HKS coilovers & BBK improve the handling performance.

I have a wind tunnel at home and Viet's FX results of the aerodynamics are freakin' amazing with a .30 coefficient drag instead of a .35 Cd.

IMO.... seeing the car actually helps sell the FX when others see what you can do to it, to make it not look like every other FX out there or SUV on the road.

Do you want to be different? Save up and buy a car that's rare. It does the trick just as much. I turn my heard every time i see a stock Caynne or Range Rover, not so much with the FX or any other mainstream SUV. Why try to make it attract attention when you can get something that looks so sexy from the box.

I don't know, I have a grandpa brain lol. I'm very old school. I'm sure it took a lot of time trying to achieve this look, so good job on that I guess

No back and forth with Shayanz please.

The end.

It truly is a piece of art rookie, I love it. Truly one of a kind. I can only imagine how much time and money went into it. Keep up the good work.

isn't the handling improved because of all the aftermarket suspension parts you put on there?

isn't it faster cause its twin turboed....

by the looks of it looks smoother, its certainly lower and cutting the wind better, im willing to bet its even more aerodynamic...

looks like he took the car and put it on an entirely new level...
it's your opinion and everyone is entitled to one but im sure as hell most people on the forum as well as everyone else on the net will disagree with what your saying.

Not really a fan of SUVs for the most part but I like yours a lot, mostly because it is a lot different than most suvs. I gotta say tho, I think it is more sport than utility

That was Infiniti's plan for the FX As it isn't even meant to go off road in the first place.

Nissan engineers would drool over rookies FX... to imply that it is other than amazing is foolish... what’s with the guy with a grudge anyway?
