Rare Vehicle Alert ...Ebay Item # 180728396265

You are bidding on one of the true signature vehicles on the road today. This 2009 Infiniti FX50S was bought and serviced at our dealership. It has been meticulously maintained by an FX enthusiast, who recently traded it for the 2011 model. Once you have experienced the power, refinement, and sophistication of the FX50S, with all apologies to Porsche, there is no substitute !

2009 was a complete redesign year for the FX, the "Bionic Cheetah" that Infiniti debuted in 2003. It is a muscular, tall, sport SUV, with a 5.0 liter V8 that develops 390 hp and 369 lbs/ft of torque at 4400 rpm, delivered to the 7 speed, manually shiftable transmission, and eventually to the Intelligent All Wheel Drive System and 21 inch wheels with low profile tires. The "S" model of the FX50 also features active rear steering and adaptive dampers that further improve its rail-like handling. Electronic Vehicle Dynamic Control insures that the power is properly utilized. There is literally nothing else on the road that drives like this vehicle.

The combination of the curvy and straight lines of this vehicle tend to defy immediate classification. Is it retro ? Is it spaceage ?... or is it both. One thing is clear. It looks like if it wanted to, it could catch you and eat you ! New for 2009 are the active side vents, which actually work to reduce front end lift by five percent. The bi-xenon headlights articulate up to 30 degrees, and the rear LED tailights require no replacement for at least 100,000 hours. Do the math if you'd like.

And if you care for electronics, get ready to be blown away. The Infiniti voice command navigation system is quite simply the most sophisticated, yet user friendly system on the market. The Bluetooth telephone system will accept up to five phones, each with voice dial capability and individual contact lists and phonebooks. Want a rearview camera ? How about four cameras placed around the vehicle which combine to give the driver a 360 degree view of the surroundings, and feature bendable predictive course lines and distance grids. There is also a sonar based parking assist. AV inputs will allow you to play DVDs or a portable gaming system through the front mounted 8 inch LCD touchscreen.

The 2009 FX was also the first Infiniti to feature dual zone Advanced Climate Control. This system cycles between polypropal grape seed air purification, and ion dispersement, which removes not only odor, but also dust particles from the interior of the vehicle. It also senses noxious odors on the exterior of the vehicle and automatically closes the vents in response.

The seats in the FX50S are the Infiniti sport seats, which feature driver's side power adjustable hip and thigh bolsters, power lumbar support, and front thigh extenders for both driver and passenger. They are also both heated and electronically cooled. The drivers seat features two position memory settings that are remotely synched to the intelligent keyfob.

As for driving assist technology, there are few 2011 cars that even come close. Intelligent Cruise Control, active from zero to 100 mph will remotely modulate your cruising speed in relation to traffic. Distance Control Assist calculates closing rate, and will tap the brakes in the event that you are accelerating to quickly toward a moving object in front of you. Lane departure warning and prevention reads the lines on the road and will alert you if you stray without signaling. It is tempting to say that it could almost drive itself, but all of these assist systems can be disengaged so as to give full responsibility to the driver at any time. Afterall, when you can get from zero to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, this is first and foremost a driver's vehicle.

And if you like to cruise with tunes (and who doesn't), the Bose system in the FX will make you want to take the long way home. Be sure to check out the picture of the massive subwoofer nestled in the spare wheel below the cargo area. The 11 speaker system can be sourced through a CD player, Satellite Radio, Ipod interface, or 9 gig Hard Drive Music Box that will allow you to upload up to four hours of music complete with song titles and artist information. Win the bid on this vehicle, and get ready to take your automotive experience to the next level !!
