Acura TSX vs. Infiniti G35 by rdl2

I am in the market for a new car and was trying to decide between the Infiniti G35 and the Acura TL. Once in the Acura showroom, I was introduced to the TSX and thought for the price differential, this was a pretty good car.
 
I am torn between the AWD and 6 cylinder drive of the G35 vs. the price point and fun drive of the TSX. I do live in the northeast, so I am also interested in how the TSX does in the snow.
 
Any thoughts. Thanks.

My wife has had her TSX through 2 winters now with great performance. We live in the midwest and often get atleast a few solid snow and ice storms per year. Her car handled everything just fine. We live on a bluff and have a long hill up to our subdivision and in addition have a steep driveway. The car just trucked right on up them both without fail.

So, I guess you recommend the car. I'm leaning towards it and just need to be tipped over a bit.

Sorry, I just focused on your "interested in how it does in snow" part I guess I definitely recommend it. If it's any indication I just picked up an '06 for myself. I think it's just the best value in the segment. If you really love the G35, go for it. If it really is a toss up though, I think the TSX is best decision.

Thanks.
 
It is a toss up and because the TSX was never on my original list, I am having trouble deciding.
 
But I think you are right. I had narrowed my choice down to the G35, but didn't "love it". I thought it would be a great choice.
 
But for the price and the style, I'm thinking the TSX will be the choice. And the fact that you assure me that it does well in the snow, clinches the deal.
 
Thanks again. The TSX it is.

You probably bought the car already, but the G35, I believe is rear-wheel drive. So, on acceleration, you could fishtail a bit. The TSX is front wheel so you shouldn't have that probablem as much.

Thank you for your response. Yes I did buy it already and so far I am very happy with it (although it obviously hasn't snowed yet.)
 
The G35 I was looking at was actually all wheel drive which I know would have been great in the snow. Hence, that was my dilemma.

A future G25 might be a better comparison to the current gen TSX.
