You tell that trick to go and get her a job so she can buy her own shit! I ain't yo' daddy! Tell her you have DEEZ NUTZZ and bubble gum for her ass and you are fresh outta gum!

I'll get her ass a diamond ring, but it won't be 5K, you better go at cost and go overseas to get a ring if you plan on paying that much.

if they both were manually equipped (or the CLS was a new 03 6spd man!) thered once again NO question whatosoever..
The CL-S 6spd does 0-60 in 6.28 secs I think. And that is still slower than the 5.9secs for the Altima. Not to mention the car is a 4 door, less 20hp, and has a 5spd compared to a 6spd. And people say Nissan bluffs their horsepower.

Where does the Altima do 0-60 in 5.9 seconds? I highly doubt it. 6.2 or so, sure.... Probably only with an amazing driver and with the temperature near freezing.

BTW, the 0-60 times for the 6-speed CL-S are just estimates. All C&D did was take the 6.8 from the auto and take away .5 as Honda estimates. If you use the 6.2 for the TL-S, that's 5.7... Let's see when it actually comes out.

Motor Week got the Altima to do 0-60 in 5.9secs. And it was the MotorWeek car of the year or something like that.

Well, Luxsport....if you are doing mag quotes, motortrend has the cls at 6.4 and tls at 6.3 in warm temperatures. NOW lets shave off the .5 tics that honda said the cls will do, and there you have it.... 5.9 !

Now realisticly, HONDA of america and the Acura website has the times of the cls at 6.5 seconds. Now HONDA press release says shave off .5 tics You still have 5.9 - 6.0 and thats from the ACURA people who don't abuse the cars like motortrend and other mags. We are on par with max and altima 6spd rather you like it or not. Nissan still has not release 0-60 times for either car. They are going off of C&D. Now the the famous xterra of theirs, they kept quoting "motortrend truck of the year" now if they want to go by motor trend statistics, they rate the max 6spd 6.5 and the altima 5spd 6.7 and both autos are rated at 7.0 secs.

Altima, CLS etc.

I tested the Altima, TLS, and Maxima, and not the CLS.
Where I live the Maxima costs over $4G Canadian more than a similarly equipped Altima. The TLS is about $4G Cdn more than the Max. To be exact, the Altima was $32,400 Cdn, Maxima $36,900, and TLS $41,900.

Yes I would not take the Altima because it isn't nice inside, and has many imperfections when I looked at it.

Hey you've got the 6spd Max, how does that thing run? Do you think it's faster than the TLS that you tested? A friend of mine works for Nissan and when he drove the 02 Max he felt that it was faster than the Altima. I used to have a 2000 Maxima, and I just loved the interior, but I felt that it could've used a little more power. Good luck with it!
