a 2012 infiniti fx35 full option versus 2012 toyota venza which one would give more prestige....i love the fx because it looks more unique and you hardly see anyone driving that particular model, but once you mention fx35 people will begin to say the car is outdated even before seeing the model they all say venza has more prestige....advice please....the both are preowned in nigeria....venza 4.5m with 88k mileage only reverse camera and auto trunk...fx 6m with 4 camera dvd automatic side mirror closing and auto trunk.fx was bought brand new tear rubber with just 36k mileage...please advice

THOUGHTS PLEASE

HERE ARE THE PICS

Buy venza

Its hot

Try a Pagani Huayra.

I will go for the fx35 because regular maintenance (oil servicing) is the same cost with a Toyota and I am not getting happy on the cost of parts of a Toyota because they cost way more than a Honda part. The Venza parts and the fx35 parts are both costly at the same level. Sometimes the cost difference in parts can be between (3k to 15k). The fx35 is a beast and it is very well equipped compared to the Venza. I will suggest before buying the fx35, do a research for yourself and please make sure you find a very good Nissan/Infiniti mechanic because this is who the reliabilit on the car depends on.

A good car + A bad mechanic = Death of the car

THANKS

I don't get a thanks too?

I will go for the fx but I think it is over priced beat the price down and go for it.

As an owner of two infiniti’s,I feel very qualified to give you sound advice,take the Toyota.The original parts are more readily available and there is an abundance of qualified mechanics.Finding a very good Infiniti mechanic is extremely difficult and sourcing of parts is quite a problem.The cost of maintainance relative to the Toyota is quite high and you will never drive it as an every day car.

Please do the Fx if you can afford it..
its a beast of a machine, the only thing you stand to gain with the venza is the resale value over the Fx.

Any so called ‘qualified toyota mechanic’ who can’t fix an Infiniti vehicle, should stick to fixing wheel barrows.

Really
I own an fx45 o
My reservation is the poor fuel economy due to my turbo charged v8 engine and the large wheels coupled with expensive parts buh aside that venza is a no match ...

I will go for the FX because it is superior to Venza anyday.

That FX is a beast I have imported 2 of it for people in Port Harcourt and no complains so far.

Venza is just a Toyota camry apart from the small facelift, it uses same engine with a toyota camry.

Also I recon Venza parts will be a lil bit cheaper and the venza fuel economy will be better and the parts will be more available coz its a Toyota.

Most Nigerians believe in hearsay. Any car that is not Toyota and Honda is not a car for them.

My friend the decision should be yours but as for me I will choose the Infinity over the Venza anyday.

Though I think they belong to different classes, never mind their similarities.

Infiniti is a problematic vehicle, you can't even use it as a normal regular vehicle

Fx35 go use fuel kill you. U go sweat for that prestige wey you dey look for. Go for the toyota. 3.5 venza has better fuel economy than the fx35. Venza has low maintenance cost. Just close eye buy original parts whenever you want to change parts and you re good.
No near fx35 o! The AC no go cold reach to stop the sweat o.
