Those are pretty fricking ugly, as well as the Lexus SUVs.

If you are going to drop $70k on an SUV get a German one. Or an Escalade ESV if you have a trophy wife in W TX.

Couldn’t disagree more. It is the official Mom mobile in Lakeview and they are awesome looking.

I drove the QX for 5 years and recently got rid of it. Looks good, very comfortable ride, waaayy behind technologically. The ongoing issue with Bluetooth syncing to iPhones and multi-device syncing was a PITA. Rolling out the same body style for the lower priced Nissan was a huge mistake.

It’s a fricking Nissan that dumbasses pay 30k more for. They are nice but are the epitome of new money trash.

This is how Mfg's get ROI- they will run this for a while and then Infiniti will come out with a new QX design-

Ugliest car on the road. Plus it looks like it got its styling cues at Quantrell's Custom Shop in the hood.

Great vehicle. Wife couldn't decide between this and the Armada. Found a deal on an Armada I couldn't pass up so I decided for her, as is usually the case.

ETA: The QX80 is getting a design refresh this year.

The RX 350 is ugly as sin now, which is a shame for my wife, because she really wanted one and we were planning on it as a next vehicle until they just went to far with the design.

the GX and LX are still awesome looking vehicles to me. Just more for a vehicle than we wanted to spend and absolutely didn't need that big a vehicle right now.

So you can basically only get a Mercedes (and I doubt you get it for 70k)? BMW, Porsche, Audi etc. don't make a full sized/larger SUV that is in the same class as the QX80 that I can think of off the top of my head.

They should have rolled out a new QX body style before they used it for a much lower priced vehicle.

Wife has a 2014 QX60 (we didn't need something that big). She likes it a lot.

Looked at QX80s and they are very nice and drive well. Well appointed. Not as big as Yukon/Tahoe that they compete with. Used to be built on the Armada platform, but they shifted about 4-5 years ago, so a much better ride.

Very pricey with the bells and whistles.

Pretty sure the QX80 is the same as this:



To OP, you can also get a Sequoia Platinum starting around $65k.

Yes.

They actually shifted the Armada to the QX80 platform.
