if you wanna say crap about 1sicklex, i think it's only fair you give truthoffacts his share of crap as well
com'on, who's the childish ones? we TLers here say plenty of good things and bad things about the car, like we do for our TLs, but he just come on and say all the bad things about the TL and think we're haters like him, then give us crap

really, come'on!

Actually, I got $2k off through my employer...your experience may be different. In other markets they are strictly MSRP.

I was there also and I video taped the g35...I think he ran against a Focus, here is the clip

Here was my 14.9 all stock (unless you count coilovers)
I was racing against my co-worker's cobb spec WRX,
his best run was a 14.008, I think he ran a 14.2 here.
That all wheel drive kicks ass off the line.

Hey! I saw the video, I think we're pretty close head to head w/ the WRX. The only disadvantage is our FWD launching but I'm sure we can kick ass from 60-100mph.

I just priced a G35 with the same options as our 03 TLS with Navi and it clocked in more than $3500.00 more than the TLS (msrp to msrp)

All mighty G35 goes down to GTP, car that costs much less, and only has a few small cheap things on it:

http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/...P_Infinity.wmv


So whats the point of all this? G35 is not that fast of a car, swift and a close match to the TL-S in speed yes, though is unproven in reliability thus far as its too new, its resale value if like the rest of infiniti (I've owned several) will suck, and we don't know how much aftermarket support it will have, as we all know must forum people are not stock anyhow, so most Tl-S owners here will be able to beat a G35, at least till some stuff comes out for them.

I'll race any G35 in my TL-S, and won't even look at them if I'm in one of my Toys. I doubt truthoffacts, bigpimpin or whatever name you pick even has a G35, or he wouldn't act the way he does.

The G35 that beat out the tls in almost every single category and was placed 7 slots higher than the tls in the latest issue of road & track priced the G35 as cheaper than the tls.

But you know what we can use your figures from you Fuzzy math, the G35 is still alot more car than your quote of $3500.00:wow:
If you think there's a problem with the math then take it up with MSN's Carpoint & Edmunds because that's the msrp they quote when I selected all of the options that a TLS with Navi has.

You have once again proven you are an illiterate and impetulent moron that doesn't deserve to seen or heard. This should be a forum for those that add value to a discussion and can improve on silence. You do neither.

I also recommend not only the banning of truthoffacts but also any user name that trys to register from his base i.p. address.

That car had more mods than you think and yes a pulley on one of those things does wonders for little of nothing. That stock G35 hung in their pretty good with a modded GTP which can hang with our TLS stock. The results would have been the same with a stock TLS.
