A Plasmacluster Filtration system removes mold, fungi and other unwanted particles from the cabin and partners up with the Grape Polyphenol Filter to collect dust, squelch allergens, and, according to Infiniti, the deodorizing principals of both systems can suck up all manner of nasty smells, from farts to French fries.

there's no way to quickly scroll through a long list of menu items and it doesn't pause the music when a call comes in over a Bluetooth-connected phone

Between the FX35 and the FX50, there's very little feature difference at a standard-feature level; but they're both fully kitted-out as luxury vehicles.
The FX50 comes with bigger, showier wheels, but with the new Limited Edition, you can get 21-inch graphite-finish wheels, dark-tinted headlamps, adaptive front lighting, and other extras on the FX35 AWD. Both models come with a power rear liftgate.
Options are limited to big-ticket tech features like a lane-departure warning system, an adaptive suspension, adaptive bi-xenon headlamps, and a navigation system with an especially good display and interface. The navigation system comes with a 9.3-gigabyte music-storage feature, and Bluetooth is well-integrated.
Conclusion
Both 2012 Infiniti FX models come loaded with luxuries, but the tech-savvy will want to add a few options.
