One of the first EX in Switzerland

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.

Last friday i get my EX, it's one of the first EX35 here because it's a directimport from US. The official launch from Infiniti here is in octobre.

EX35 AWD- Obsidian/Graphite- Premium- Navigation- Wood- Cargo

I like this car, it will be my daly car.

My first mods will be:- Windows tint- 20" wheels ---> good ideas????- Change the wood trim, i don't like it (it was on stock)

Here are some pics from yesterday:

Very nice! I like the way they look without the splash guards. That's how they're sold in Puerto Rico.

I guess the splash guards look better if you upgrade your wheels to something bigger and wider.

Aren't you jealous that the Europeans will be getting an EX37 and you have an EX35? I know there is much difference, I am sure you will have a lot of people asking you questions.

No, i'm not jealous. It was my decision to take an US imported. I cant't waittill the official launch here, i wanted the car now I think the difference in the power is not so much, the only thing i will missis the new 7 gear automatic transmission.

@CaribMon71: Thanks, that's true. I also don't like the splash guards.

Grüezi TomCH,

congratulation to your nice car!Hopefully my EX35 will arrive end of the month! I am lookin forward to finaly get it.zeropost?cmd=reply&id=4113581#How ever i was wondering if your nav is working? The Infiniti dealer here in Hamburg (Opened on the 3rd of Oct.) told me that the ex's coming from the us the nav system won't work. Fixing is not worth it. The costs will be appx. €2500 or even more. Your writing that you plan to put some xenons on. Here in Germany cars must have a hight leveling system otherwise they wont pass technical inspection.

Once again welcome to NICOCLUB

PS: I am going to drive trough Arosa next time skiing in Scuol. I looking forward this serpentines.

looks great!

i've been meaning to go back to Switzerland for some time now, havent been there in almost 5 years!! i loved how the air tasted and how relaxing the weather was compared to the concrete jungle i live in

i dont know if it's just the angle you took the shot from, but those 17" wheels look pretty good on the EX already, I can't wait to see what the 20" will look like.

what are you going to do with the navigation?
