Jumping Ship...

Well after owning a few differ models of Acura/Honda in my household I do believed Acura/Honda QUALITY has really gone to the CRAPPER and Acura/Honda does not give a shit about their past, current, and future customers I decided to jump shit and spent 31k for a 2002 Toyota mini van instead one of theirs.
O.k. whats the big deal one might asked ?
Screw Acura/Honda I will not spent my hard earn $$$ I say.
and looking forward of getting rid of my aging 01' CL-S and swap it for nice looking G35 260 RWD Infinity coupe might as well.
O.K. who's next in line brave enough just step up and say it out loud that Acura/ Honda SUCK BIG TIME>>

I havent owned a Acura or Honda car. But i've heard that the quality is great. Even my dads Lexus and moms caddy fuck up sometime so no car is perfect. BTW i have a Honda lawnmower and it works great. LOL Ha Ha

Dan,

I regret your declaration to jump ship, as i'm typing this message, on april fools.


But I do wish you and Zeta the best of luck with your new family.
And hopefully, the minivan will be trouble free.

We, the Orange County/LA crew, will always welcome you
to any of our event gatherings.

Kvit

False... The Nissan 350Z will be around 280HP, the Infiniti will be toned down a bit to 260HP, and also looks like it might be cheaper the higher level Nissan's.

My buddy was at an Infiniti dealer over the weekend looking to pre-order one, so this is good info.

Pardon me. I was thinking of the Coupe which is stated to be making 275+ HP. But you are right about the sedan making 260HP.
