Editors at TheCarConnection.com love the high-tech features offered for the 2009 Infiniti EX35—but some drivers will balk at the high price associated with many options.

The Auto Channel notes that the 2009 Infiniti EX35 has "a long list of available features"—but everyone knows the special features make this vehicle shine. Here's a neat feature of the 2009 EX35: According to Cars.com, "Scratch Shield clearcoat paint...can heal itself of light scratches over the course of a week." However, the reviewer is hesitant to actually test it out. ForbesAutos reports that the EX35's paint is described as "self-healing."

ForbesAutos also gives "major gee-whiz points" to the power folding second-row seat. It's an option on more expensive EX35s. The reviewer doesn't hesitate to point out that the EX35 has plenty of "leading-edge features for gadget fans."

ConsumerGuide reports that other options include a navigation system, a rearview camera, and a 9.3GB hard drive on which MP3 files can be stored (as well as any other types of digital files, it is assumed, and accessed by means of a USB connection).

Conclusion

The 2009 Infiniti EX35 has plenty of standard features and some nifty options—but you'll pay for them.

Other Choices:

The EX35 is much more compact and streamlined than most other utility vehicles, and it appeals to those who want a taller sport wagon, or to SUV buyers who want something a little lower and nimbler. As with the larger FX35, the EX35’s interior is better than most in its class. The GLK and Q5 are all-new entries in this class for 2009; while the Mercedes GLK offers some measure of off-road ability, the Q5 is geared more for on-road performance. The BMW X3, the original premium compact SUV in this class, retains more ruggedness than the EX and is less exciting to drive than the EX or BMW’s cars. The Acura RDX is one of TheCarConnection.com’s favorite vehicles in this class to drive, though its ride is very firm and its turbocharged engine isn’t to everyone’s liking. The Lexus RX 350 is a larger and more comfortable option, though it’s not nearly as much fun to drive.

    Our EX35 has snow tire hum coming from the front tires, the dealer said this is caused by the front tires being out of alighment slightly causing the tires to be "feathered"
    supposedly this will go away after being re-alighned after 10-15000 K does this explanation seem reasonable?? or is this smoke & mirrors??
