questar. Read many impressive reviews, the thing looks like a nightmare to take down, not sure what mags it takes, being an fn product I assume fal mags.

I shot one (~50 rounds) at Shot Show 2 years ago and was fairly impressed.
I wish I'd bought one of the ones from IrunGuns when they were $1200 rather than the $1800 at Questar.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. .. compare to the rfb and xcr its a steal. That said 125 $ a mag, slim to none aftermarket support and excruciating disassembly are all big point to consider.
Someone who is satisfied with one or two mags per rifle , want a non restricted semi that he plains to shoot primarly on a shooting bench and is not big on rifle modifications ; this might be for you!

I own one. Disassembly is NOT a big deal. You need an allen key, and a small flat screw driver. There are a few small parts and it's not as quick as military rifle field strip, but it's still easy once you've become familiar with it.
I'm not sure what would consitutes a full dissassembly, but you can strip the gun enough to give the full gun and gas system a proper cleaning. I haven't disassembled the bolt, but it doesn't really get dirty. I also haven't removed the gas block from the barrel. There is a youtube video out there on how to strip the FNAR, its where I learned how to do it. It does take 5-10min to strip, but it's not that bad once you've done it a few times. If your interested in getting one, I wouldn't worry about not being able to maintain it.
I bought one from a dealer in the US and imported it through Irunguns. Total cost was $1700. I'm not sure who in the US has them for sale right now.
I find it to be an accurate and enjoyable gun to shoot. Mags are pricey and hard to find unfortunately.

Amazing trigger, take down no big deal, excellent checkering, it functioned with everything I fed it and the accuracy was phenomenal......but for me the damn thing was too heavy, and with just a 5 round mag it really didn't do anything better than my much lighter and considerably less expensive bolt gun. So I sold mine.
