09 EX FROM CAR AND DRIVER MAGAZINE

Discussion of Infiniti's amazing (and underrated) sport-luxury crossovers, the EX35 and EX37. For 2014, the EX series will be renamed QX50, in line with Ininfiit's new naming conventions.

In the Overview of 09 Model EX35, C/D tells 09 has no change vs 08. This can be true? Even Infiniti didn't announced 09 models yet, how would they know?http://www.caranddriver.com/bu....html

Correct -- you'll see changes in 2010 - 3.7, 7 speed transmission, and maybe some re-worked seats to improve rear seat foot/knee room. Body etc. should remain pretty much untouched -- maybe a tweak to the grill. A Few Different colors too. Probably the wheels go up an inch or 2 as well.

not when you see the prices of the tires. I was looking on Tirerack last night at tire prices for other infiniti models and we EX owners have it very lucky. I would have a cow if I had to pay $250 a tire for a G37.

no need to change the EX when they got it so right in the first place. If you look at the other models nothing approaches the luxury of the EX. G37 models look downright spartan compared to an EX. M models come close. I won't count the QX because that pig is going away.

Oops, got caught. I told you because i am a Finance director at a dealer and i been seeing so many salemen lying to their customers to just go smooth on the transaction. i am sure there are lots of good salespersons too. well you are right since i saw couple salesmen lying to their own family as well as other customers.

And the price will jump big time for these new added features. Plus no cas rebate for one year. 08 is a better price for what you get.

Remember, the more add on any car, the more it will cost for repairs, if something should break.

there really isn't much more they could add. well, maybe get rid of the XM radio and put in avrcp bluetooth so we can just stream music. XM is dead.

+1 on XM. Have you seen their stock lately. XM is drying slowly but surely. We get free 6 months XM, wonder why, so you can buy it for $20 a month. Not worth it.
