John, were the windows in your TL tinted, or is that just the look from that particular angle.
Thought about tinting the G yet?
I want ceramic tint, but I'm having trouble finding someone around my parts with references.

Tinted (More than legal actually) Made a big difference in temp with my black interior. I need to to the G...I should have done it a long time ago. A client of mine did the TL for free...it held up for the two years I had it that way. I don't know much at all about tint other than it's not welcome in NJ lol

"If someone doesn't like grunt fromm their motor...fine...but it doesn't equate to a shortcoming in someone else's character...if liking torque equates to my manhood, I would be glad to show you the tire wear on the S2k."
Why are you responding to me? I don't believe I have made a personal attack on this, or any other, forum.

I was merely clarifying the difference between expecting something from a certain type / level of vehicle, and actually not liking a particular form of power delivery for a given situation. And elaborating, of course, on the senseless, insulting comments from the previous poster.

Acura TSX vs. Infiniti G35?

I am just puzzled why this thread still exists?
Other than that both TSX and G35 is Japanese Lux brand cars,
what is there to really compare? One is 4cyl FWD, the other
is 6cyl RWD with 306 HP.
TSX compares closer to maybe Lexus IS250.
Any one agree or disagree?

It takes a little bit of shifting, however "jumping in and out of traffic" is very fun for me with the TSX. I find the torque great and the overall motor very fun/quick. 0-60 numbers are not used everyday. Unless you floor your car off every light to 60. Not something I personally do everyday. I stick to my point, men refer to 0-60 times because it's a "unit" of measurement. 0-60 time tells you if you can kick the cars &%## next to you. The difference in a car that does 0-60 in 6.7 seconds vs 7.3 seconds matters to some. The Lexus is250 I also drive has more torque, but is no faster off the line and really I have a lot more fun in city driving with the TSX than the IS. Take my 6spd TSX off the light, to 60 with the IS250, and 2 cars are side by side. Get the cars to 120km and the TSX pulls away slow. So much for more torque.

I think my comparison is fair. A toyota camry with 270hp feels plenty fast compared to the IS250 (i don't know what the 0-60 is..you may know or care). However, given the styling, handling and looks, i'd take the IS. Just like the TSX over the accord. V-6 or not.

I just pounded the crap out of my TSX low torque baby. Enjoyed every minute of it. Opps, i guess i was not supposed to have fun (that's only for high torque)

What's senseless and insulting. Not quite sure what you are refering to?

I think he's referring to an earlier post you made and I think it's time that we move past this before things get ugly.
What do folks think about continuing this comparison? As a previous poster mentioned, it's really not a level one and we've kinda been wandering all over the place anyway.
I guess if anyone wants to continue to compare the subject vehicles, please get back to it. If there's no more conversation to be had on the subject, we'll wrap this one up and move on to other topics.
