My point still stands SIR, you are WAY out of your league here.
 
If you were so comfortable with that fact, why would you make STATEMENTS like THAT? 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.

I am simply trying to educate this guy that if he prefers FWD, there are finer examples out there, like the Maxima. I actually have a deep respect for the Maxima, I think its a fine product but I prefer RWD and the G like you said is a better option.
 
One thing that I have noticed is the G drivers have been steered away from performance, you get labeled with the "0-60 fanboys" title, LOL. 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.

Read my posts again, at some stage I said "no G driver will waste his time trying to race a TSX" I dont think it will be a race anyways. I am certainly not interested in that and I have enjoyed my 300 horses, I mean I did pay for them right, what I choose to do with them is certainly my business right.
 
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.

If you really think the TSX and Camry are in any way alike, then you've lost all credibility with me (and I'm guessing many other members of this forum).
 
I can't argue with that kind of logic. I'm done with you.

I guess thats the difference between me and you, I do not go through life thinking because a car wears a badge, its different from or cannot be compared to the best selling sedans in the world, Camry, Accord. These cars define the minimum requirement for me to consider stepping up to "luxury", "performance". Its not easy for a car to set itself apart from that segment. To me the car that sets itself apart the furthest does a better job and deserves the premium.

wow you guys, comparing apples and bananas. you simply cant compare any toyota to any acura, they are totaly different cars, they drive differently, handle differently, etc... The toyota has a much better "softer" and "quiet ride than the acuras do, but i wouldnt take the toyotas cuz they dont perform too good.
 
So hows the ride in your TSX?

very comfortable-been on 3 cross county roadtrips in the tsx. The ride was quieter when we had the OEM Michelin tires but we replaced them with Yokohama avid v-s tires at 74,000 miles. Very disappointed with them-noisy and the gas mileage went down. Our tsx, bought new 11.17.06, has 88,000 problem free miles. Love it.

A TSX vs Infiniti G? The TSX is built on the Honda Civic platform. This is not even a comparison. Place the TL AWD against the G37X and that is a true comparison. I think the Acura TSX is a great car for what it is but it is not a G.
