Ive driven all of them and honestly the GLK is the coolest and has the best balance. Its a fast SUV. The Lexus was plain boring. I can see older people liking it, but the looks and driving are way relaxed. The GLK has a cool look and I actually rather the interior of it to the other two. FX is cool as well, but they ride very rough. I bought the GLK and love it. Its a matter of preference.
Lexus RX 350 has the best reliability and practicality. The Mercedes doesn't even have push button ignition and every costs extra!!! I traded the Mercedes for the Lexus and
I recently bought the lexus rx350, its really amazing how the road noise is blocked out thats equipped with 15 speaker mark levinson. Recommended car!!
I own an FX35 and your evaluation is complete bollocks! Works great off road (3ft of snow) with a smooth ride stamped with 20inch rims. I'm a 6'1 driver and all my buddies who are 6'1 are comfortable all around. Being a passenger in a GLK, i'd have to say is the worst back seat experience ever! Thanks for match up, enjoy the show.
I own the fx37 and love it. It's crazy quick for a heavy cross over, and it's has 4 transmission modes. Normal revs to 7400 and fairly smooth, snow mode takes away power and rpm, manual shift and finally sport mode. Sport mode is so fun shift at 8000 rpm or a little higher and halls ass. I also, when driving like a responsible adult, get 17.4 mpg in town and a nice 27.34 on the highway.
@ITunes02 2 years in and oil changes only. It's an amazing vehicle, and I will say in sport mode it shift at 7500 normal driving it shifts at 2200. 0-60 times in sport mode are 5.6 seconds. Again its an under estimated beast for a v6.
Yeah,maybe this description was accurate 5yrs ago though, but, here in 2020, things aren't the same as before, and now, I'm sort of beginning to lean towards the Mercedes.... The city where I live, having a quiet soft ride is much more important than being hash,loud and sporty, so my darling Infiniti might not cut it anymore, thoughts overall styling is really to kill for....however, I think the Mercedes is a sweet balance between the soft riding Lexus and the sporty feeling Infiniti, and on the plus side, ITS A BENZ and here in 2020, that's more of a luxury statement than it's ever been before.
I have the GLK350 coming from the factory next week. Fully loaded black on black. I drove all three and liked the Benz the best. All three are nice cars.
Just bought an FX37--the only car I would ever own. Not sure why they chose the hillbilly to drive it--this car handles better than the Porsche I traded in. Lexus=Rich soccer mom. (Note: Do NOT buy this car if you are a dude) Mercedes=Someone who desperately wants to appear wealthy. Horrible looking car. Infiniti=Someone who doesn't give a sh*t if the dude in the backseat is 6 feet tall. It's all about me mofo! Summary: Buy this car if you want an AWD beast of a crossover.
You guys also chose the Limited Edition FX37 which has the 21's. Plus they did change something for '13, its a 3.7L instead of the 3.5L. Same as the G37/370z
I love these reviews. You guys (including Andre, The Mechanic) are quite amusing. I think the Lexus manual might be telling you that knowing how to drive is unimportant, since all the electronic gadgets will perform the task for you. Just sit back and enjoy the scenery. Cheers.
plush luxury (lexus/merc) vs sports luxury (infiniti)...depends on what you want..most people find the RX more practical due to the space, hence the outcome of more RX's, if not the road will be full of impractical coupes and convertibles that are priced about the same...But put the fx37 against the rx350 it will beat it easily...
When you drive this thing everyday, you notice every bit of difference. But yes I do agree very little changes. I don't really like the new post 2013 versions. The front end is nice but I feel the back need to be redesigned as well.
Tiffany Nguyen My family just picked up the Lexus RX350 and we were blown away by how comfy and quiet the car is for it's price range! It makes the potholes here on the east coast somewhat bearable.. lol
The Lexus is way better than anything else. I have tons of friends and neighbors that have multiple RXs, one even has 3. I have had the dialpad in all my Benzes and have never used it once. Looks cool though.
The electronic steering on the 2013 model is better suited to this crossover. But the old car was fine. A little bit numb but than again it isn't designed to drive lie a sports car.
Lexus are the best (quality, luxury and reliability) the mercedes you can just enjoy it with its first three yrs of warranty but after five years sell it or you will regret it
Yes its fast but the point is to cover all the bases. I think this is a fair matchup with fair reviews given the intent of the video. Each of these excell in a different area.
why buy a infiniti when you can get the lexus, best in class. Idk about where you live but here there are rx's left and right. There's a reason why they're so popular !
nathan: "infiniti-good steering feel, really good steering feel, probably best in class". couldnt agree more after driiving every sports suv in market including x5m, porsche , range orver and mercede gle . Infiniti is sportiest suv in market
Interesting match up, but buyers of the Infinity are not looking for comfort. The Lex and the Infinity are on two completely different ends of the spectrum. Personally, I love speed, so I would buy the Infinity. I think a better compromise is the Acura MDX, a little punchy plus a good family hauler.
I haven't driven the other two but did get to drive an rx350 for a couple days, honestly not a sporty vehicle at all, doesn't like to be cornered but rides like a dream, can't feel any bump and super quiet. Interior is nice.
Lex is a better car compare Infin and Merc, I have been in all of them and Lex has the nicest interior and softest ride, it's might be mom car but I think its the best in this list. Infinity is very noisy, after 30-40 min drive u kinda fill uncomfortable because of noise and the Mercedes don't even look like Mercedes, for $50,000 I better drive E series even dow its not a suv then than small GLK. P.S. They should'v add BMW X5 in that list, BMW vs Lex might be fun to watch. thank for review guys
Glk shouldn't be compared, instead bring the Ml350. Also I bet the Glk option sky rocked that price tag otherwise it wouldn't be there in the first place.
The RX350 is the perfect balance. Practical luxury design, practical performance, practical MPG, practical size. The GLK350 sounds like a beast, looks the best, and is something I would buy. I would have taken the fx35 a few years ago, but this new FX37 is too dated and all it carries is a new engine.
why the hell does towing capacity matter for these vehicles if a guy who had enough money to afford a vehicle like that and still needed to tow a boat he wouldve got a good pickup as a towing. these suvs aren't for towing at all
It depends on the car. We launch these cars several times using various techniques and use the most successful when we film. That includes torquing/revving, paddle shifters, short shifting - - you name it.
ME TOO Hands down Lexus is the best you drive it for fifteen years with no problems Where are the overrated mercedes after warranty at the mechanics !!!!
Thanks. This helps. I was confused between these two. Right now I own a ES330 and need a bigger SUV. was not sure FX or JX is the best one or I should Stick with Lexus.
I recently saw September 2009 design patents for the Lexus CT200h. The rather spindle-lite inspiration for the December 2009 design selection of the final 2013 Lexus GS exterior. The CT200h design patent, references cars up March 4, 2009(AM One-77), so that's the earliest source of Lexus' spindle grille.
Out of all of these I would take the RX--- if it was a Mercedes, I would claim the ML 63. If it was the Infiniti fx 37s, I'd take that. It really comes down to what you want from a car.
I'm completely biased towards to the Infiniti but Nathan did have a point. That Infiniti shares the same platform as Nissan's Z car which is good for driving dynamics, but they should've definitely had their clientele in mind when designing it. An extremely sporty ride isn't appealing in the long run.
Well it's all about how fast you can get to Cruze control and hwy traffic. They are all really nice and I've driven them all. I'm getting the 2016 RX, SAFEST NICEST best and most for the money and it works better than the other two combined. Still they are all nice, but the idea that the best is a second or two faster is lame.. I love fast cars, but for a family daily driver fast is not primary.
Are you clueless? It isn't even 2013 yet, you meant April 2012. The Lexus spindle grille for the 2013 RX was designed in 2010(design patents prove that), while the original 2010 RX was designed in late 2006. In 2011, the facelifted 2012 FX started using this grille. That was designed in late 2010 as well. The explicit Lexus spindle grille dates back to 2009 when the 2013 GS was designed.
No, that isn't a good example. Those use a premature form of it. The real spindle grille HS & CT are 2014 models. The first Lexus spindle grille was created in 2009 for the 2013 GS, which premiered in August 2011 and went on sale in February 2012.
The Infiniti is the ugliest fucking crossover I've ever seen it looks like a beluga whale the lexus is by far the best out of 3. Did your keys to cheap American made garbage

How'd that glow hold up after 11 years? I must say, being a Toyota man myself, I have my doubts.
Out of the three, I'd prefer the engine note of the Infiniti over the Mercedes and the lexus
They secretly agreed, but Mercedes paid more for this review

Oh my favorite it's the 2013 Lexus RX350. Great reviews, I really enjoy them all.
I'd go with FX37. Sure it's not as luxuries as the Lexus but it won't bore you while driving. And the benz, GLK is just too small of a crossover.
I love Lexus RX350
We have infinitiqx70 I love it

Do you still have your car? I looking to buy on Infiniti fx35 2010
Is good car reliability ? Thankfully
I own the fx37 and love it. It's crazy quick for a heavy cross over, and it's has 4 transmission modes. Normal revs to 7400 and fairly smooth, snow mode takes away power and rpm, manual shift and finally sport mode. Sport mode is so fun shift at 8000 rpm or a little higher and halls ass. I also, when driving like a responsible adult, get 17.4 mpg in town and a nice 27.34 on the highway.
How's the reliability on it?
@ITunes02 2 years in and oil changes only. It's an amazing vehicle, and I will say in sport mode it shift at 7500 normal driving it shifts at 2200. 0-60 times in sport mode are 5.6 seconds. Again its an under estimated beast for a v6.
Lexus is the best in every sense, it's the most reliable, luxurious and stunning original design inside and out.
Infiniti is better than Lexus.
Josh Khup Better than toyota😷🤮
But ugliest and most boring
You didn't have the Infiniti in Sport mode! Great comparisons, always love your videos.
Best Car Overall: RX
Most Fascinating: FX
Most Insignificant: GLK

I choose the Infiniti all the way, but excellent review guys.
They secretly chose the same, but Mercedes paid them
I have the GLK350 coming from the factory next week. Fully loaded black on black. I drove all three and liked the Benz the best. All three are nice cars.
You are most welcome and thanks for watching.
I own a FX37/QX70 and love it
Thanks for the nice comment. Please stay tuned. We've got the new plug-in electric Ford C-Max and SRT Viper this featured later this week.
i fuckin love that infinity!!

Bought a rx350 last year. Best suv I ever drove. I don't think I want anything else. Just gotta wait for the redesigned 2016
Where did you hear that from??
brendan2cool every 3 years?
I didn't know, thanks! Can you buy me one? lol
To be fair there was barely I difference between the 2004-2006 and 2007-2009. Just sayin
When you drive this thing everyday, you notice every bit of difference. But yes I do agree very little changes. I don't really like the new post 2013 versions. The front end is nice but I feel the back need to be redesigned as well.
i love LEXUS RX350 .:)
Lexus is the best car. Luxury and reliable.
noo infiniti is better than lexus ...
elmer quintanilla jamas.
elmer quintanilla thats why lexus sell way more right?
Tiffany Nguyen My family just picked up the Lexus RX350 and we were blown away by how comfy and quiet the car is for it's price range! It makes the potholes here on the east coast somewhat bearable.. lol
+elmer quintanilla
and infiniti looks way better
in person the rx is sexy but i like the fact that u did admit it
The Lexus is way better than anything else. I have tons of friends and neighbors that have multiple RXs, one even has 3. I have had the dialpad in all my Benzes and have never used it once. Looks cool though.
The electronic steering on the 2013 model is better suited to this crossover. But the old car was fine. A little bit numb but than again it isn't designed to drive lie a sports car.
I call bs on the Mercedes 0-60. I’ve tested the 0-60 on mine numerous times and it’s always been just a tick under 6.0 0-60.
Are you using sport mode? My fx37 is a lot quicker than what they got. In sport mode it revs to 8000 rpm, normal mode is 7400 and still quicker.
I agree, ita also the best built real SUV for offroad capabilities. I have a 2010
I would drive a Lexus RX 350 over any other SUV on the market. I mean people considering speed as judgement for an SUV...?
Lexus are the best (quality, luxury and reliability) the mercedes you can just enjoy it with its first three yrs of warranty but after five years sell it or you will regret it
carlobautista24 😂😂😂
The FX is SEXY!
That's not true infinity fx37 0/60 6.2 second
These guys are being paid. Fx has 0 complaints and is much faster haven't seen a Lexus suv that can touch an fx even the 450.
Yes its fast but the point is to cover all the bases. I think this is a fair matchup with fair reviews given the intent of the video. Each of these excell in a different area.
why buy a infiniti when you can get the lexus, best in class. Idk about where you live but here there are rx's left and right. There's a reason why they're so popular !

i like the lexus

Wow ,I looking to buy one FX35 2010 ,I hope I take good decisions!!! Thanks
I like your comments I'm clear on that mercedes is much safer around and quality.
Lexus looks the best by far.
Lexus RX - The best ! Good at everything, very nice interior and very well built and looks nice cant go wrong.
Lexus life
I really like these comparable mash-ups. Do more of them :)
Interesting match up, but buyers of the Infinity are not looking for comfort. The Lex and the Infinity are on two completely different ends of the spectrum.

Wish they'd make an AMG version of the GLK.
Fresh i just threw Infiniti fx37 (which i own) in the search and you guys are on it.. love it
Fun video, thanks! However, with high end stuff like this, it would be nice for you to speak about cabin noise.
Luv the Lexus great job guys
Lex is a better car compare Infin and Merc, I have been in all of them and Lex has the nicest interior and softest ride, it's might be mom car but I think its the best in this list.

thank for review guys
infiniti fx37 with no hesitation.
All day
Are we talking about ugliness? That things a jelly bean.
Infiniti for me
Crispy Chris Fr and they will regret choosing the FX37 once the transmission goes 😂, those cvts suckk
@@jdhchchhxhcbchnc6985 doesn't have that Trans in it
i would have liked to see off road footage of those 3 cars .. to see how they perform ..
MERCEDES Glk 350 is the best!!! Even in Eco modo.... if they choose sport does better time.
i love my fx37 so far so good
Still is good your car ?😊because I looking to buy one Infiniti fx35 2010
Thankfully for your time
Is it reliable as the lexus?
Tavy hey sry for the late reply, i sold my fx37 in 2015 lol but it was a decent car overall
Angel bluerider sold in 2015 switched to bmw x5 but it’s a decent car overall
do you guys think an infiniti fx50 a good car?
Roman and Nathan need to do more Buy It, Lease It, Rent It or Forget It scales in their current videos.
Andre has come a long way 😂
Glk shouldn't be compared, instead bring the Ml350. Also I bet the Glk option sky rocked that price tag otherwise it wouldn't be there in the first place.
spasibo tebe Andrew, And your friends for the show.
$53k for a GLK? That's about $16k in options. Wow. That's a fully loaded RX.
THAT INFINTY FX37 looks so goos thou.
The Merc is a size class smaller than the others.
What size would match up correctly ?
@@yugiFTWf666 the ML350 is on par with those other two
Lexus all day
Fahim Hoque yes
Infiniti all day
katy donawether Mercedes is unreliable piece of crap. My ex35 be dusting them anyway

Find a diesel GLK and get 30+mpg
why the hell does towing capacity matter for these vehicles if a guy who had enough money to afford a vehicle like that and still needed to tow a boat he wouldve got a good pickup as a towing. these suvs aren't for towing at all
Does Nathan hit his head getting in and out of every infiniti? Is that like a ritual he has to do before driving 1?
So how about the Bluetech GLK? Any chance of a review soon?
every day a new video ? this is great. already subscribed
It depends on the car. We launch these cars several times using various techniques and use the most successful when we film. That includes torquing/revving, paddle shifters, short shifting - - you name it.
ME TOO Hands down Lexus is the best you drive it for fifteen years with no problems Where are the overrated mercedes after warranty at the mechanics !!!!
7:07, How could you guys do 0-60 in ECO mode in GLK? It starts from 2nd gear...
Thanks. This helps. I was confused between these two. Right now I own a ES330 and need a bigger SUV. was not sure FX or JX is the best one or I should Stick with Lexus.
Deffinitly Lexus all the way !!!!!!
The Lexus is "too luxurious". He made it seem like a bad thing.
I recently saw September 2009 design patents for the Lexus CT200h. The rather spindle-lite inspiration for the December 2009 design selection of the final 2013 Lexus GS exterior. The CT200h design patent, references cars up March 4, 2009(AM One-77), so that's the earliest source of Lexus' spindle grille.
at least i think it looks the best out of all 3... and not to mention about the sexy exhaust note...
I am with you on this. I traded the FX for RX350 and i am so happy with the decision.
I LOOOOVE LEXUS
Lexus fan here.....
Where is the Q5 and the ML350?
Out of all of these I would take the RX--- if it was a Mercedes, I would claim the ML 63. If it was the Infiniti fx 37s, I'd take that. It really comes down to what you want from a car.
My mom has the fx and he's right about those cup holders. They will spill anything. It's not a family car but luckily she the only one who drives it

The 2016 Infiniti QX60 or even the 2016 Nissan Murano are a hole lot safer than the Lexus and are just better in general
glk350 is not similar size with RX and FX...
i would go for the Infiniti FX37 any time

Good job guys!
Lexus!!!!!!!
The Infiniti is the ugliest fucking crossover I've ever seen it looks like a beluga whale the lexus is by far the best out of 3. Did your keys to cheap American made garbage
should do a comparison with the 2013 Honda Pilot
both are easily recognisable, infact the shorter 'names' of cars like the C series etc make it easier to identify and remember
What about a snow and off road test? Ok I'll give it to ya, 4matic wins!
nice Lexus
