I think Phil was just trying to prove a point. Lexus vs. Toyota, Infiniti vs. Nissan, Acura vs. Honda.

Thanks Phil.

so, I love the look of the car, but OP, what is ur opinion on going from 300ish HP to 135? Not sure if I could do it? How does it accelerate and how is it on the highway? Just wondering cause I am thinking about what will replace my G....

Just for the comment Phil made he should be banned for 30 days

on a side note it's very nice but it looks like something someone over 40 should drive..

I'm the idiot?

You guys think the G is actually THAT much of a step up from a Nissan Altima.

And I'm the idiot...okay.

EDIT...I just saw your sig...you just got the G. You're still in the honeymoon phase with it. Sorry to hurt your feelings about your 'new' car.

Keep it on topic...the CT is a great car. Good luck with it and enjoy it.

i'm guessing since it's hybrid, must be torquey since the most power is at 0rpm

No, it's not. It's not a pure EV. If it were pure EV, then yes.

Thanks. Yes, it's a big change (my G was an '04 w/ 260 HP). Do I miss that acceleration and HKS exhaust note? Of course I do, but I don't regret my choice. The car only had 1 or 2 more years left anyways. It's peppy in sport mode (quick, but not fast). One thing I'm glad about is because it's not a powerful car, I don't drive like I drove my G (like trying to beat a car off the line) and I don't drive like an idiot any more (having a RWD car w/ that many HP gave you more reasons to get into trouble). The CT is fine on the highway, the biggest thing to get used to is the CVT engine (never had one or drove a car with one before..it's weird). I guess I'm just getting more responsible, I'm 35 yrs. old married with 2 kids and wanted to save on gas. $2K/year is a lot of savings IMO. The CT lowered with these wheels handles like it's on rails.
