You've got a good point there about the TL. Yes, it does seem a better Maxima than the Maxima. More power and luxury.
 
If i were to buy today and had to choose between the 2, id probably also go the TL route.

...in the Maxima's defense, the average new TL is probably $5000 more than the average new Max, given that the Max can be purchased close to invoice and the TL is going close to MSRP.

Assuming you pay invoice for a somewhat comparable Maxima the TL would cost $3000 more. Not bad considering you get a few more features with the TL and resale is likely to be better with the Acura.

True... That's why I'm waiting a year or two for the price of the TL to come down. Hopefully, new design bugs experienced by the TL owners now will be taken care of by then.

I've never seen TL's going for near invoice, so I think the price diff will probably remain north of $4000.

I based my figures on the assumption that one would pay MSRP for the TL.

I'd take an Accord any day over the Maxima. The Nissan is a good car but the Accord is going to outdo the Maxima in reliability. The new Accord is very roomy and full of features for thousands less than the Maxima. I've owned four Accords, two reached 200,000+ miles and I just sold them because it was time for something else.

It is a tough choice, particularly when the Max is now selling at below invoice. IMHO, I think the Max looks better (subjective), has more oomph (objective) and comparable reliability (objective), but lower resale value (objective). Can't really go wrong with either choice, but the Accord gives you more bang for your bucks (objective), though the Max is perceived to be slightly higher in "snob" value (subjective).

Where are is the reliability comparison info coming from? Last time I checked, the maxima and accord were about dead even. And there have been a few problems with honda auto-trannies in the past few years. I think you really can't find an unreliable honda or nissan.
