I miss my TSX

Greetings to all!

Since last november I don't own the TSX and what can I tell you, I missed a lot.
Comparing to my current car (Infiniti G35S) this is what I miss:
1. Fun to drive.
2. Driving position.
3. Gas usage.
4. Quiet engine.

My TSX did have a lot of modifications: hondata, comptech IHE, short shifter, comptech flywheel, quaife diff, tanabe suspension, etc. And those make it almost perfect for my driving pleasure.
I did change it because I got 73K miles on it and pressure from my partners (it was a company car).

I MISS THAT CAR A LOT :-(((

I will wait for the next gen to see if I can get out of the infiniti and get me a new one.

Take care of your TSX, it is a lot of car for the price and also a lot of fun.

have you thought about modding your g35s?

i'd have assumed that the g35 would've been just as fun to drive, if not, more.

what are your impressions on your g35s?

Gosh Tireguy is just the opposite of you. He wrote his 2007 G35 sedan write up because he traded in this TSX for a G35 and told in his review all the perks and the G35 well to him was much better than his TSX.

Yeah, that's too bad man. I'm sure you'll be able to get in another TSX later. Just wait for the next Gen. I guess this just goes to show that sometimes power isn't everything.

I agree...more hp/torque would be nice BUT the buttery smooth engine in the TSX is very hard to beat for driving enjoyment....if Acura/Honda get a V-6 that smooth I might jump.....

Thanks to all for the replys!!

I selected the 2007 G35S 5AT because of price and performance.
Others cars were:
Lexus IS350 - Handling not so good, not a sport car.
Acura TL type S - Great until you push it to the limit, not very quick on daily manuvers.
BMW 335i - Great but VERY EXPENSIVE, NOT RELIABLE.

The G handling is great, but the whole package of the TSX is unbeatable.
Yes is VERY quick and the handling limits are excellent but I miss the TSX because it felt like an extension of my hands, quickness, agility and the capacity to modify and have fun.

TSX = LESS EXPENSIVE TO MOD,FUN!!!!!!!
G35 = EXPENSIVE TO MOD, FUN Good ))

Thanks again and enjoy having a great forum, the best on all Internet!!

I wouldn't. I like the practicality of a sedan too much. The new G35 sedan, maybe.
