:eek:

I don't have a QX, but what is the major differences?:confused:

It looks just like yours. Actually, yours looks better!:p

The new one looks like it has braces in its grille!:D The dashboard looks less boxy too!

Now I see what you are talking about! They are biting on the Benz SUV grille!

It seems like its not worth it trading yours in, keep moding yours. and watch that wallet $$$:cool: :D

I really like the interior! amazing! i wish they did more of a redesign for the exterior though..

That dash looks 10X better IMO.

I really like the way it looks especially the new interior. But where is the wood steering wheel?

lol, that's funny, lol:D , I second what Hullio said, should have done more to the exterior design, the 08 Armada almost the same thing, not much difference in the exterior.:cool:

I'm glad that they didn't dramatically change the exterior. The design is flawless as it is so, why change it?

It has a new heated steering wheel ;) I really can't get over the interior, it really looks like a major upgrade. Very roomy and high quality feel/look.

Now that I've taken a good look at it, the aluminum interior trim looks a bit cheesy...

The new interior looks great. Looks more classy IMO. Although, I think I would have rather had wood trim on the steering instead of the heated steering. I like the new instrument cluster.

Its sure is flawless, but sooner or later the Exterior is gonna change, if it did for better, then its worth spending on the upgrade,:D but if it did not, its not worth it,:( heck you still have the same SUV anyway.:D

It also has the parking assit in the front.
this link has a better description... it says the stering wheel is wood...new flat-folding power 60/40 split 3rd row seat...illuminated steering wheel controls.....

Thanks fiddly, great link, lots of information.:cool:

The one thing I wish the Q had was voice activation features, like most other luxery cars have. I hope infiniti included this for the new Q, it's a nice feature to have.

I hope the new Q is better than the new Lexus LS. The LS has so many un-needed technology featues.:mad:

now pic´s of the new 2008 QX.

Verrrrrrry interesting. I found several of the things... uh... interesting, but the things that happened to most catch my eye were the deletion of the fender flares, the larger entertainment screen, and the hard drive for the entertainment and navigation system.

The thing is, I just bought my 2006 QX56, because we're moving to Alaska and needed 4wd. I found out, though, that the nav system doesn't work there, because Infiniti/Nissan/Zenrin won't make a disc for Alaska. Digging into the information, though, they said that the info CAN be added to the hard drive for navigation, which the QX previously didn't have. (only the M did) So I wonder. I didn't see much in the 2007 model, so I bought a closeout 2006. If I had known that this new 2008 was coming in April, though, I probably would have waited.

I still see fender flares, what are you referring to?

Looks nice. However, a real imrovement would have included the new touchscreen/voice activated nav fom the new G35. Not much to ask since it looks like they added smart key.

I like the 9 spoke chrome wheels. I'd put those on my Armada. Anyways looks the same outside too me. Inside is sweeeettt!

How would the Trade In work coming from a 2007 to the New 2008!:crikey:

Nope they aren't changing much on the exterior of either the Armada or QX. The way I look at it is that the current styling was so far ahead of the curve (doesn't look like every other refrigerator on wheels out there) that they don't need to change it yet. Plus, ours won't be outdated for a while yet! :D

I don't why everyone likes touchsreen Navs. I have one in my Lexus GS300 and I don't care for it mostly because of the fingerprints thats always on it. Hate the way it looks in the sun. I prefer not having touch screen like in my Armada. However voice activated would definitely be nice.

Touchscreen Nav isnt really a big deal, nice option to have though. But voice activation Nav and features would be real nice. Should be standard in all Infiniti's if you ask me.

Ah, disregard. I guess I do see fender flares there after all. And with the paint, I couldn't see the side bulge in the rear quarter panel either. Looks very similar to the current now as far as those go!

I like the new color.. Lakeshore Slate.. I'm digging the new dash and door panels...
Make me wonder if the new door panel fit my Armada.... same doors just the fitment against the dash might pose a problem.

Man I'm really starting to like this truck. Love the gauges with the different color warning lights, not all yellow. The interior is really nice but I would like to have it with the wood steering wheel instead of heated steering wheel. Like I said before, I don't need heated anything here in AZ.

I liked the red speedometer better, but I like the diffent color warning symbols. It looks to much like the new G35's.

The new QX is really growing on me!
