What BS..07 G35 vs 07 TL-Type S vs IS350

Listen to why they gave the G third place.

Road & Track could lick my b*llz!!!!! The G is way better than the Acura and would probably tie with the IS.

I careless for this BS, cause I am sure it's got something to do with who pays big bucks for their advertisement.

I think you're on to something there.....

Ignore the writeup....They are only one in a dozen mags and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts the other 11 will be more favourable....unless they're somehow biased too......

We know we're on to a good thing, and so does Nissan who sells all they can make.

Happy holidays, and enjoy those G's....they're great rides.
Colin.

Wow...is all I have to say. I can't believe they put the TL above the G35S. I suppose I can kinda understand the IS350, but certainly not the TL in regards to performance.

I will say that the TL does have an awesome interior.

When they use the word "hella" in the video, it invalidates any of their opinions. Performance wise, the G35 is better than the IS and even more so than the TL. Probably the worst reasons I've ever heard to place a certain car last.

I agree with all of you but pay attention:

The previous road test of the lexus is350 that R/T has cloked the car at 6 sec on a 93 degree F weather. The got that on a pdf file that you can download from http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/d...data_panel.pdf

I test drive all the cars they mention on auto only and the G Handles better, sounds more aggresive and is a lot of fun to drive.

I use to be a loyal R&T reader. Got the latest issue in the mail today, and I have to say, am very disappointed with the magazine. 4.9 0-60 for the IS compaired to 5.4 for the G??? The 0.5 sec difference is waaaay too much to believe!!
