Infiniti (http://www.autoblog.com/infiniti) has served up a rash of photos of its limited-run FX Vettel Edition (http://autoblog.search.aol.com/search?q=Vettel+Infiniti+FX&s_it=header_form). The $155,000 hyper crossover offers buyers a full 414 horsepower and a 5.6-second run to 60 mph. The grunt is also good enough to scoot the hunkered-down CUV to a top speed of 186 mph. As we've heard, Sebastian Vettel (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/sebastian vettel) lent a hand in setting up the vehicle's suspension, and the Formula One (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/formula one) racer's Red Bull (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/red bull) team helped pen the carbon fiber body kit. Those bits include a new front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser and rear wing.

If you want one - and happen to have more cash than sense - you better get on the horn with your local Infiniti dealer - provided you keep a residence in one of the car's markets. The manufacturer is only planning to build 150 examples, with 50 examples earmarked for the Middle East, Russia and Western Europe, respectively... if you want one in North America, you're going to have to get a bit creative.
