Replying to: braydenh (Nov 16, 2008 3:30 pm) These days, many people care about fuel mileage, as well as performance. BMW, Honda/Acura, Audi & others appear to be able to address that concern. Infiniti, not so much. I have a Pathfinder in the garage downstairs as I write this. It's got the same engine your car has, one very well suited to a truck. I've been driving Nissan engines since '73 & very much enjoy them, but this "my dad can whip your dad" stuff doesn't move the conversation forward in a very productive way, IMNHO. |

This is the thing that bothers me about car enthuasiasts! The statement above by cdnpinhead. He compares a Nissan engine to a G35. Same enigne? Yeah. Same specs? I don't think so! Does anyone else in this message board find anything funny about that? Hey buddy, I'm sure your Nissan engine is tuned the same as the G35! I'm sure it has the same tranny! It's probably even got the same HP Tiptronic tranny. Your Pathfinder probably even weighs the same as my G35. Bring your Pathfinder and I will finish the 1/4 before you're even half way there. Besides I thought you guys were talkin about Infiniti/Acura, not Infiniti/Slow SUV weren't you? NO COMPARISON!

Replying to: sjaieve (Nov 18, 2008 9:49 am) Honda (and Acura) cars possess a refinement and elegance in their ergonomic design, control smoothness, material quality, driveline precision, airy cockpits, etc. that cannot be measured but is certainly superior to most other cars in the category. When you sit in the TSX, you feel good. The controls are in the perfect place and move with teflon-coated precision. The engine revs like a sewing machine and sounds/feels smooth and turbine-like. The transmission and clutch operate with snick-snick precision - no balkiness in the driveline. The TSX is finishing school polished. Compared to the TSX, the G35 is a little rough around the edges. It feels more assembled from the parts bin rather than the Gestalt of the TSX. The cockpit is a cacophony of shapes and textures. The driveline is relatively unrefined. Yes it goes fast and turns sharp, but in my opinion, it's not as enjoyable to drive.
