Nighthawk Black Pearl is such a sweet color, I REALLY want Abyss Blue Pearl, but I can't get ebony interior so NBP it is... hopefully i'll have one by the end of the month provided financing goes through...

RWalker, who are you on .net?

Same name, like I said. I don't post much, just lurk around everyday, mostly in OT because I'm a car n00b.

Back to topic.. I think NBP is my favorite color for the TL.. though black cars are a pain to keep clean. Somehow I really like the Camel interior tho I wouldn't like to keep both so clean.

I voted for the G35 coupe, because I think it's a beautiful car.

However, when I really made this decision, I ended up going with the TSX because I live in an area where RWD isn't an option. The AWD was more than I wanted to pay. Hence, the TSX...

Muller's Woodfield Acura, great people there, not pushy at all... NO TRADE IN, the altima is still in the household, Arlington was offering me 33,895, i told Muller's cause I dealt with them first, and because of that they gave me a slightly better price

every person I know who drives a G35 is a tool who paid WAY too much for the car when it first came out.

I'm stuck making that decision right now! I test drove the G35 a few weeks back and loved everything about it except the looks of the front grill...and the price. I then saw a TSX a week later and started researching it. I have an '01 GSR now so I'm already an Acura fan. I think that thing that's winning me over on the TSX is that it's $10-12K less, has most of the same gadgets, and actually looks great as a four door. I'm getting to that point in life where I like the convience of a four door. Anyway, going to test drive the TSX tomorrow so wish me luck!

If I had the money I'd trade in my TSX for a G35x in a heart beat!

Also, the local Infiniti dealer's service is top notch, while the Acura dealer service is terrible. Infiniti will give you a loaner car for the whole day, while at Acura I would have to sit in the waiting room for 3-4 hours as my car is worked on. The Acura dealer doesn't give you a loaner car unless the car is going to be at the dealer for more than a day! This happened to me two months ago when I took my TSX in for the steering wheel problem. They kept my car for 6 days to order the parts and fix the steering wheel knocking noise. They didn't give me a loaner and I had to use one of my two other cars.

Infiniti ownership is top notch. I used to own an '96 Infiniti I30 and I know from experience.

Horrible experiences with QUALITY and SERVICE from both manufacturers. Anyone want to buy my TSX?
Manufacturers do not provide service...dealers do and some of them are the sh....t. My local Honda dealer is the king when it comes to service; I've had my Accord for 13 years and never was I given a better service from day 1 (been owning cars for the past 26 years).
Yet the local Toyota dealer is so so. Evertime I went there to get a problem addressed it was an argument as to whether it was coverd under waranty.

I am sorry that your dealer is not more supportive...:'(
