US Machines

[Kace]

Just back from a trip to the US and some great car and accessory spotting - from 22" spinning chrome alloys, to Monster Hummers.

On the more mundane famil wagon front, one of my favourite machines on the road over there has got to be the Infinity FX - imposing and futuristic, yet practical and powerful (if you go for the V8)

This is one I would like to see on our shores and beats the Nissan Murano hands down

Eh - no, not quite. Murano shares basic underpinnings with the Nissan Altima and Maxima - the Inifinti FX does not. Both share the 350Z V6 but there the similarity ends. Murano is FWD, Infiniti FX is RWD. They are completely different machines with the FX being much closer to a sports 4x4.
