Re: Looks like trouble.........

Man The Ultimate!!!!!!!!!!!! That might be worth comming out of retirement, and going back to work. WORK!----- OMG.
By the way a turbo kit would prob. run about 5k right? and and NOS system as backup? a few mods on the suspension, wheels, tires, How could you lose? Would Infiniti let me keep my warranty with 'Spray'?

the G already looks good on the outside. just make a couple additions under the hood and exhaust, and you got yourself a seemlingly perfect machine.

i personally want to change the exhaust, add a CAI and filter, possibly a turbo, and some exterior mods like HID's and interior lighting. can't wait till these components become available.

True to that, although I wouldn't be surprised to see a sedan M3 here in a year or two.

Re: Looks like trouble.........

then there is the difference between the 330i and the G sedan.

A BMW 330i near-luxury sedan seats five passengers.

An Infiniti G35 near-luxury sedan seats five passengers...............................without having to stuff the rear ouccupants in tooth and nail, packed in solid-flesh, with oxygen tanks as to have air to breath.....

the big word: COMFORT

saddening, by EPA standards, the 3 series is classified s a COMPACT.

The G35 is classified as MIDSIZE

having to ferry around my grandparents alot, i find it important to have a backseat that can accomodate HUMAN-SIZED humans. You just cant do that with a 330i

Re: Looks like trouble.........

i don't know if those figures are accurate.. i don't know of any cars in the US or even in all of north america selling that rapidly. but, the TL should be selling pretty well cuz i see so many commercials and ads for them. plus, their cutting the costs and adding a lot of incentives. i think they're aiming more at ppl that don't know or care about the redesign. the big reason why i didn't get it was because of the redesign.. which i wasn't about to wait for.

yes i must agree, a slamed G would be worth going out of retirement just to get. Owing one would be like going to heaven

Re: Looks like trouble.........

Things can get can get ugly? That Acura IS ugly! Its a fancy Accord, nothing more, nothing less...The G has way more style.<blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr>

Secondly, that wagon aint too sleek IMO. IT looks like it got major ghetto booty.

<hr></blockquote> Somebody wanna explain to me what the hell "Ghetto Booty" is? Do people in the "Ghetto" have different "Bootys"? Am I missing something?

TSX vs G35

Dont care much for the looks of the Acura TSX, although the rear does look pretty cool, the rest is bland like other hondas.. As far as it handling better... my experience with FWD cars is there great until you get over 200 hp, after that they become torque steer monsters... My previous car was a 2000 Honda prelude, I had a jackson racing supercharger and Mugen bolt ons... I made close to 240 hp @ wheels... it was real fast, but on take off and the 1-2 shift, hold onto the wheel.. sucker would jerk big time... even Nissan's Altima FWD with 240 hp has MAJOR torque steer on its V-6, 5 speed... Thats one reason I went with the G35 was because of its RWD...

I'm feel safe saying the G35 will be a superior car to the TSX when it comes out...
