Which car to get?

Question

I am in the very fortunate position of being offered one of two cars from family members. The first is a 2004 Infiniti FX with 42k miles. The second is a 2007 GMC Envoy with under 20k miles. I anticipate driving an average-above average number of miles per week. The Infiniti only takes 93 (yes, I've tried - anything lower significantly lowers performance.) My primary concern is safety - not just crash performance, but snow/rain handling and braking. I've been driving the Infiniti for a few months, and love the rear camera, navigation system, and handling. I drove the Envoy for a few months and liked it, but not as much as the Inifiniti. Envoy advantages: better on gas, takes regular gas, good in bad weather, lots of space for dogs :) Advice on which car to go with? Thanks!

Answer 1

I couldn't even tell you because both are really nice and both drive really nice, i mean the FX is drop dead gorgeous but w/ the cost of 93 being so high i would go with he envoy but its all up to you, i mean the FX has more perks and is way more comfortable than the envoy , but it just comes to if you want to handle the gas, i've been in a few FX's and their fast but im not sure how good they are in bad weather, if you were to go with the FX the engine can go forever because it is a nissan motor so depends on what one you like more, the envoy is comfortable and is good in the snow also, so it depends on what you feel you like more, gas on the infiniti will cost more but you will average about the same city as the envoy which is 18 but the infiniti will get about 5 more highway mpg

good luck

Answer 2

you have to go with the 04 infinity it may have slightly more miles and more of a cost for maintence, but it also more likely gets 10-15 more mpg so go with the Infinity

Answer 3

the Infiniti has a better repair record and is more reliable.

If the GMC is better, a lot better in the bad weather, go with that. If you wreck the FX that won't save you money.
