Replying to: fedlawman (Jun 25, 2009 7:06 pm) BTW the TSX is a Honda Accord in Japan, i.e. a family sedan. The G is a Nissan Skyline in Japan, which is a sports sedan. You can consider the TSX as ELLPS in your world but in Japan where it comes from its meant to compete with the Camry & Altima , Maxima will annihilate the TSX which is why I tell you to focus on your under 30k group where the TSX nicely fits in, but obviously as a family sedan, it will not compete very well. Camry & Accord will own it. As for your take on what you define as silky, smooth, refined, I am sorry, the IS250 did that very well for me. The A4 is on my top choice as well. And do I care that you choose to spend your money on the Honda Accord, yes mine is a Nissan skyline, no I dont care. I am not even trying to convince you to get the G. If I was the only one driving the G in America I could not be happier. My point still stands SIR, you are WAY out of your league here. In any case the G outsells the TSX, not saying it means anything but I guess fewer people are convinced to the a TSX over its competition, Camry, Accord, Altima, Maxima which are the better choices IMHO. Ask anyone who made a similar move from IS250 (way more refined than the TSX) to the G, ask them what they thought of the move, they will tell you the G is twice the car offered by the IS250. Ask people who move from the TL to the G, and I can assure you, you will find people moving from the TSX to the G (fewer going the reverse route). Spoken differently, is moving from a G to a TSX an "upgrade"?

Personally, I don't have a horse in this race, but I usually enjoy reading about comparisons like this, but this forum has gotten a little depressing lately. A lot less to read about cars, and a lot more huffing and puffing about "blowing the doors" off each other's cars. Really? You're in a business-class sedan and you're concerned about getting the jump on the fellow sedan at the traffic light? I have a lot more respect for a car that won't embarass itself in the curves as opposed to in a straight line. Frankly, legal limits will be reached (and exceeded by a great deal) in general long before either of these cars handling limits will. Steering feel? Yes please. Again, neither of these is a runaway winner in that department; both are decidedly sporty while still lending a luxury feel. My best friend drives a comparble car to mine, but never once have we ever pretended we were "racing for pinks," but what do I know. I just graduated college and am 21 years old, and haven't gotten the first speeding ticket or caused an accident. Guess I went straight from teenager to geezer.

What else can you say about a TSX, you will most certainly have to look for some subjective features which funny enough, the G embodies as well. Is there a way to add Camry, Maxima, Altima to this thread, I think this discussion will end. Here will be the ranking 1)G 2)Camry, Altima, Maxima, 3) TSX At least thats what I think. Heck I dont mind losing to any of those cars tied at 2 either, just not the TSX, LOL. |

Replying to: thegraduate (Jun 25, 2009 8:23 pm) To be fair, I have seen only one guy who spoke about smoking a TSX. My posts have touched on a lot of things and I have spent the least amount of time on smoking a TSX, I think everyone is in agreement that performance the G takes it, no need to go there, its a waste of everyones time. All I want is to include the Camry, Maxima, Altima v6 models, thats where things get interesting. I care more for the opinions of drivers of those cars than TSX, its just mud slinging and funny enough I have not said much about the things I dont like about the TSX, just the things I like about the G. Oh BTW, I am very comfortable with what I am saying, remember I am the guy who after reading CD tell me to buy a 328i over a G I was like are you nuts, and I chose. That should tell you that I am a strong independent personality, and I expect everyone here to be the same so my statements are not meant to scare, insult or anything, just take them at face value and throw your opinions in my direction, heck quote more CD if you want, its even more enjoyable. BTW, add 335i, that should keep me in check, LOL Is there any G driver who wants to add something about steering feel and cornering, I can get slalom numbers and figure 8 numbers but if people do not understand how well this car does in that dept as well, I am really not willing to waste my time on this.
