i believe i should clarify what i have been saying. i have a broken arm and typing with one hand is hard. perhaps you noticed that the s and d are next to each other?i canoly type lefty, very difficult.... i was talking about the rdx, which is the new suvcoming out in june. look at edmunds inside line for info...

I have a TL and I am very happy with it. Just got it in October.

Nice car that.

Hands down the best value in the price/performance segment (besides the infiniti M's)

I have never been a big fan of BMW's. Lack of torque is a pita, especially when you lay down 60 g's on a nice m3.

Don't get me wrong, I think they are lovely cars. My m8 at work just bought one but I am just not enthused when I drive it. It handles well for a rear-wheel drive and that is the biggest plus. Also the tranny is smooth (its the 05/06) and the tactile feedback through the steering is pretty nice too.

However I get far better acceleration and handling with an Evo VIII or a subaru STi for half the price.

I personally drive a Maxima (an older model saving my money at the moment) and my girl drives a new Altima 3.5 SE (not the SE-R).

The altima is about the fastest car I have driven in a city environment under 60-65k besides the sti and evo's. Fabulous engine, crappy turning radius

The acura TL has a gorgeous interior, so ergonomic and has a nice drive, its slower and smaller on the inside than the altima but I think its got enough ammenities inside to suffice

My brother has been looking longingly at the RL for a while but he might just wait for the next LS (which is a beaut of a car).

Personally, if I had the money to throw around, a skyline GT-T (once re-introduced) or a maserati quattroporte would do me just fine

I wish Lamborghini was in there... always had a thing for the diablo. Ever since I was a young little tadpole.

I looked at the RL but for me it's not sporty looking. I put 18" wheels and the spoiler on mine. The Bluetooth Handsfree Link is awesome and the navigation works very well (developed by Alpine).

 

[Sazar]

It's larger on the inside and it has a nicer feature list IMO but yah, the TL is a sufficient car for most needs.

I like the RL personally because I like its under-stated look

Plus, it has more leg-room at the back.

 

[madmatt]

Well of course it has nicer features... it's the grand daddy of the Acura lineup now... no more NSX. So the RL is their most expensive and it always gets the newest features (even before the MDX and RDX).

I agree about that.

None of the Above; I like ( the now defunct ) America Detroit muscle cars.

Hey can someone who has the ability to add options insert Lamborghini and Aston Martin, I don't know how i could have forgotten the aston martin, the vanquish is my favorite, more realistic car, hence where my name started from....
So please just add those two into the poll if you could. Im sorry i forgot them, this was really just a quick poll i put in to see cold hard facts....
Thanks tho...

It's ok Nateski, I forgive you for posting wrong things....
I hope your arm feels better soon....

[Vanquished]

Yah, Muscle cars are good, they're not very fast though, they can just make a hell of a loud noise and make the americans respect you, however im sure that very few europeans would respect a muscle car....
-Jack

 

[omg its nlm]

I beg to differ on Muscle cars being slow.... Even though I am a euro car guy.

 

[Vanquished]

Not neccessarily slow but lets get real, they are meant for power, for torque not for high top speeds....
-Jack

 

[omg its nlm]

Tops speeds are worthless, Muscle cars scare me. lol I rather just have an M3.

I am all about the handling and acceleration!

 

[Not Bman]

If I was just going to save and get a pretty nice car, I'd get a new BMW, one because I think they look amazing, plus my initials are B.M.W....if I was to choose a dream car, it would be the Lambooo Diablo!

Don't cheat yourself, the m3 has a hefty top speed as well, its no toy car....
M3 is one of my favs...

Oh I know that, where are you going to use that top speed? Is what I am saying. Not saying that I have not gone fast or anything, just not the smartest thing to do.

Yeah your right, like i stated in another thread, i just like to show off, bad personality trate but... I cant change it....
But the m3 is such a beautiful car, i love the styling and all that power in such a tiny engine...
Magnificant
But again, i'd say not very reliable...
-Jack

 

[omg its nlm]

Yeah you need a good amout of $$$ to matain it correctly.

 

[Vanquished]

That you do, But like i said b4 its never really a surprise when the BMW breaks because, it is a BMW not a toyota(i dont mind toyotas) its not gonna last for ever You'd be lucky if it lasts 2 years without something having to be replaced...
