Vettel with Infiniti FX

Infiniti FX Vettel edition, only 150 limited edition cars were launched by Infiniti to celebrate the champion's Double World Championship title in the year 2011. The history goes back in the days, Vettel was then driving for Red Bull Racing and it used Renault engines. Renault is shacked up with Nissan and Nissan owns Infiniti. Hence special edition was launched on his name to celebrate his Double World Victory. It's superbly spacious and wide, hence feels like a monster as people say.

The FX Vettel is powered by a naturally-aspirated 420PS 5.0-liter V8 engine and an acceleration time from zero to 100 km/h of 5.6 seconds.

Have a look at Sebastian Vettel's Incredible Bike Range.

Lighter than the FX and more aerodynamic it uses the same standard of carbon-fiber as the Infiniti-partnered Red Bull Racing Formula One car and an Alcantara trimmed cabin to Sebastian Vettel’s design.

It is a luxurious SUV which, might not be labeled as "perfect sports car" but has several other features to grab your all attention. Vettel was specially asked to shape it and therefore front wing looks wavy like his race car and rear diffuser has a central F1 style Foglight. Normal FX costs £58,280 but this one costs £100,800 and why not when it has a special touch of Mr. Vettel, an exceptional racer.
