| Re: Looking to purchase 2004 to 2007 SRX
Hard to add much to C5rv's post - that's the thumbnail sketch of the years.
Our '04 AWD N* had its problem period, including numerous trips to the dealership for warranty work. Oddly, once it moved into extended warranty territory, it was rock-solid and, frankly, we wasted our money on it. We liked the passing power and quietness of the V8 but the fuel economy was not great - highway mileage was particularly disappointing.
Our '08 AWD V6 has been rock-solid from the beginning. We much prefer the narrower door sills and the more refined interior of the 2007-current models. Plus, the newer models have more storage space in the dash itself. We miss the V8 for passing power and its quietness but the V6 is more than acceptable. The SRX now has a remote power liftgate standard - a feature that my wife absolutely loves. I believe this is on SRXs from 2006 on. |
