Replying to: taxesquire (Sep 17, 2005 8:24 am) I didn't think the TL was as tight or as solid-feeling as I had come to expect after owning my previous Audi. I had been led to believe the Japanese luxury brands were comparable to the Germans; I've since reconsidered. They're both good cars -- I just think the Audi is a much better car to drive.

Replying to: frisconick (Sep 19, 2005 5:41 pm) 6 to one; 1/2 dozen to the other. I think I used the word "compromise," and this might just be a temporary outlook of mine on life, but everything is about compromise, and determining which features are more important. With my TL, I may be giving up RWD accelleration and a smaller car's handling compared to most of its competitors, and may be giving up some luxury compared to Lexis' offerings, but the combo and balance on those things make the TL the perfect compromise for me. I guess "blend" would work, too!!!  BTW, Frisco, anything come to fruition re your search for the perfect car?

Replying to: taxesquire (Sep 20, 2005 4:28 am)  I have expanded my search for the perfect car to include the exotic, and unusual, like the alfa. I keep expanding my search, that it's becoming a real chore. I think I am developing a psychlological block.

Replying to: frisconick (Sep 21, 2005 5:52 pm) "Compromise" has a negative connotation. |
