2008 Infiniti EX35 - Car and Driver
The line between car and truck has been so blurred it's really not a line at all, more just a wide, foggy field bordered by simple low-slung cars on one side and vehicles for which "sport" is a laughable pipe dream and utility is a gluttonous... This field is filled with similarly shaped vehicles each claiming to be the ideal balance between carlike ride and trucklike utility, but the reality is that some are 80-percent car and 20-percent truck, while others are 9-percent car and... Into this murk, Infiniti launches the EX35, based heavily on its G35 sedan with a dash of FX crossover. Infiniti calls it "a fusion of coupe and sport-utility vehicle. " We call it about 93-percent car and 7- maybe 8-percent truck, since it's really a tall G35 hatchback. But it would look better as a wagon, a longer roof balancing the EX's long nose and height. As it is, the EX has two fewer inches in its wheelbase than does the G35, it's shorter overall by almost five inches, and it stands about five inches taller. Black, gray, tan, and brown, the uninspired might call them, but in Infiniti-speak they are Graphite, Stone, Wheat, and Chestnut. Source: www.caranddriver.com
