Question 3.5TL or Infiniti I35 (I30)

Hello everyone,

I'd like to know what you all think about the NEW Infiniti I35 if compared to the Acura 3.5TL. Which would you choose overall? What are some of the things that you would base your decision on??

Thanks very much!

I wouldn't buy any of the either. My pick would be New ES300.

Acura all the way. Based on relaibility, resale value, overall quality, and outstanding performance. No one can touch Honda on any of these, except for Toyota. We were talking about Nissan/Infiniti though.

BTW, I'm a big Lexus fan but am against the new ES300. Sorry but it is just a prettied up version of the new Camry. Yes everyone says that. Hell, I've even heard Motor Trend say aomething along that line more than a few times.

there is no 3.5TL, at least yet.

Infiniti I35 is more refine and luxury than 3.2TL, but can not beat value of 3.2TL.

TL

I would get the TL. Are you getting a used TL or a new one? If you get used get a 2.5 or 3.2, if you get a new one, get the Type S. :flash:

i'd get the TL anyday. i hate the way the I35 looks. i hate honda's as well, and i'm a nissan guy too, but theres just something very strangely attractive about that extremely flat sided car. i tried to hate it as i do with all played out honda's but damn~~ this car is fine~~~ i'm actually getting one too. a type S as well. what have i done? i've sold out nissan~!! anyways i'll just buy a used 240sx and do a swap. yeah. i'll still be faithful.
