Used 2012 Infiniti QX56 (QX80) 82k Miles! Loaded! QX 56 or QX 80 for sale in Augusta, GA

Beautiful, well maintained Infiniti QX56 (same as a QX80, they changed the name in 2013). Loaded. Low Miles. No mechanical issues. I'm a mechanical engineer and I take very good care of my vehicles. Only minor issue is a small crack on the wood trim of the steering wheel.

Comes will all the options except for the adaptive cruise control.

On the inside, the QX56 includes keyless ignition/entry, tri-zone climate control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a top-view camera system, front and rear parking sensors, Bluetooth phone connectivity with streaming audio, a heated 10-way-adjustable driver seat with memory (eight-way for the front passenger), leather upholstery, second-row captain's chairs, a power-folding third-row bench seat, wood interior trim, a power tilt-and-telescoping heated steering wheel, a voice-activated navigation system with real-time traffic and weather, and a 13-speaker Bose audio system (with CD/MP3 player, USB jack, satellite radio and auxiliary audio/video input).

Equipped Packages:
- Theater package, which adds a twin-screen rear entertainment system and a 120-volt power outlet. Split Bench Seat package with a 60/40 split-folding bench, increasing seating capacity to eight.

- Deluxe Touring package tacks on 22-inch wheels, Infiniti's Hydraulic Body Motion Control system, vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row outboard seats, upgraded leather upholstery, remote second-row seat-folding control, special wood interior trim, an upgraded climate control system with air purification/filtration.

Performance
Motivating the 2012 Infiniti QX56 is a 5.6-liter V8 that produces 400 hp and 413 pound-feet of torque. A seven-speed automatic is the only transmission offered and features manual shift control with rev-matched downshifts. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with four-wheel drive optional. When properly equipped, the QX is capable of towing up to 8,500 pounds and is aided by a tow/haul mode for the transmission as well as an automatic-leveling rear suspension.

Despite its hefty 6,000-pound curb weight, the QX56 hustles from zero to 60 mph in a quick 6.8 seconds. Equipped with the optional Hydraulic Body Motion Control system, cornering stability is significantly improved. This system increases hydraulic pressure to the outer dampers in a curve, reducing body roll and providing a much more confident cornering attitude.

Safety
The 2012 Infiniti QX56 has the same safety features that you'd find on a luxury car, including front airbags, front-seat side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, traction control, stability control and antilock brakes.

Driving
With 400 hp under the hood and seven speeds in the gearbox to keep that power on tap, the Infiniti QX56 should satisfy most power-hungry drivers. As such, merging onto an interstate and passing slower traffic is effortless. The optional Hydraulic Body Motion Control system works as advertised, keeping body roll to a minimum in the curves and instilling a feeling of confidence.

Interior
The Infiniti QX56 envelops passengers in a luxurious cabin where nearly every surface is covered in leather or rich wood trim. Every panel and interior element is tightly fitted, with no detectable squeaks or creaks. With plenty of pockets, bins and cupholders, finding a place to stow your personal effects is never a concern.
The same goes for larger items, as the QX56's cargo capacity is greater than competing luxury SUVs. Luggage space behind the rear seats rates a generous 19.3 cubic feet. Folding the second and third rows flat expands that space to a massive 112 cubes. The QX's boxy shape further enhances its cargo capabilities, allowing it to easily accommodate large bulky items.

One feature I find particularly useful is the remote second-row seat folding control, which is part of the optional Deluxe Touring package. This allows the driver or front passenger to remotely fold the second-row seats to allow easier access to the third row, a feature that should prove especially helpful in the rain and for letting children scamper in and out with a minimum of fuss.

For most consumers the new QX56 stacks up fairly well. The 2012 Cadillac Escalade stands as the Infiniti's main rival, with similar appointments and capabilities. The 2012 Lincoln Navigator is roomier but underpowered. Also worth consideration is the Mercedes GL550 for its prestige and polish. The Lexus LX 570 and Land Rover Range Rover are better off road, but who wants to take a luxury vehicle off-road anyway?. But with its impressive feature content, secure handling and potent V8, the 2012 Infiniti QX56 represents a solid choice as a luxurious hauler of people and cargo.
