EX in the city
The bean counters at Infiniti have been busy with the abacus again. Last week they revealed prices for the gargantuan FX, and now they've announced figures for the smaller EX - Infiniti's second car for the UK, continuing the company's brave march through the recession with its premium, petrol-only SUVs.
You'll have two versions to choose from: the EX37 and the EX37 GT. Both use the 3.7-litre V6 from the Nissan 370Z and both do 0-62mph in 6.4 seconds.
The base car costs £35,200. Standard kit includes adaptive xenon lights, which point where you steer, a big sound system with a hard drive and iPod connection, plus a Scratch Shield paintjob with an elastic resin layer that ‘fills in' small blemishes as if by magic.
The GT version is £36,500, for which you get some extra goodies: leather, electrically adjustable front seats and steering wheel, heated seats to keep your bum warm and a coat hanger in the driver's headrest (sounds comfy).
The cars hit the road in September, giving you just enough time to choose between one of these or a top-spec Audi Q5, which has a diesel and will leave your conscience a little cleaner.

Those lights look like melted versions of the ones on a Merc R class. Lets just hope this mimics that cars sales figures so we can avoid seeing them in life too much.

Infiniti designers probably have a poster of the Lexus SC430 in their studio. They seem to have modelled quite a few cars on it......... "You'll have two versions to choose from: the EX37 and the EX37 GT. Both use the 3.7-litre V6 from the Nissan 370Z and both do 0-62mph in 6.4 seconds.".......er, what exactly is the point of the GT if it performs the same as the regular version?

Screw this, when will they announce prices for the G saloon and coupe, i.e. the Nissan Skyline with a luxe badge?

Infiniti is not at all new in the UAE, where there is something of a taste vacuum. The FX seems average size here though, and the EX is tiny. Both are crap

Forget the hyperdrive quattro versions. This honest, no frills TT is one of the best you can buy.
