New FX55, the SUV people love to hate

Not quite sure why it illicits such a strong distaste among enthusiasts. Personally, I think the FX is one of the best looking SUV/CUVs on the market. And the sound they make, even in v6 form is beautiful. What you are looking at here, is one of the first spy shots of the FX55. One would expect that it is powered by a 5.5l v8. It looks to feature a revised front fascia and some GTR’esque headlights. Nissan will be having the initial unveiling at the Geneva Auto Show later this year.

I just can’t get over the fact that it’s really, really ugly. It looks like a badly misshapen Murano.

It’s ok looking.

Not a fan of how the tail lights stick out though.

I do like how they sound, I’m not gonna lie.

About the sound, I agree it’s unique and that 3.5L is a dependable workhorse but… I just never liked that sound. It sounds like the engine is whining. That’s not all that bad, but there is the same deal with the 350Z, not much is happening when the engine whines.
