I have been wondering where am I going to go after my 99TL. In my next car I'm looking for speed, when I take off I wanna feel like a astronaut. I'm want a stock sound system that sounds just as good as my current car or better. I dont really want to deal with a timing belt, I rather a timing chain instead, Its not that big of a deal just a preference. I want something very reliable. I just want something I will be happy with like I was with my acuras, keep in mind I want to keep this next car completely stock, I may throw on some rims. So what do u guys think I should get

 

Belongs in car talk.

And none of the above

 

I think rear wheel drive would be nice, would it? I have not driven a rear wheel drive yet

 

fsttyms1, what would u get?

 

the lexus is a nice car. the g35 is a fun nice car. the tl is an all around great car :P, the 530 is nice but boring. also think about cost of maintenance and parts if that may be an issue.

 

IS 350 man, sick ride

 

Yea the bmw does look nice and everything but I kinda think its meant for 50+ yr olds or baby boomers, and on top of that it has a very low end sound system without the 6disc changer, but I do like the way my friends 2003 530i drives though vs my 99TL. I'm gonna try to stay away from a high maintenance car if I can though

 

M3 M5 OR M6 of maybe the new C CLASS AMG 63

 

Audi A4 2.0T? Upgrade Chip?

 

Cts-v

 

oh yea those are nice, I was one yesterday I think the newest one but I am not sure, and DAMN IS IT SEXY. some old old woman was driving it but it still was sexy haha

 

is350 is only auto...
07 g35 sedan is a nice choice... looks better than the g37 coupe
06 tl - reliable, but i'm not sure its "fast enough" for you. its barely faster than the cl/tl type-s... and w/ headers the tl/cl will outrun the tl
bmw - you want reliability, don't get this car. the maintenance costs will kill you, not because you need to maintain it a lot, but its b/c its just so expensive.

 

Audi A4 = high maintenance

 

Is350

 

If you want to keep it stock, go with the Bimmer.

 

I don't know why but the Saab Turbo X seems to catch my eye........










although this could be why:


ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS Turbo X Sedan Turbo X SportCombi Type 6-cylinder Displacement 2.8 liter (2,792 cc, 170 cu.in.) Horsepower 280 hp @ 5,000 rpm Maximum torque 295 lb. ft. @ 1,900 rpm Compression ratio 9.5:1 Max. boost pressure 8.7 psi Aspiration Water-cooled turbocharger with APC charge pressure control, intercooler

 

I would go with the BMW 335i coupe.

 

i guess if you don't mind the resale value and the interior (does it still scream GM like the previous ones?) on these things, i guess it's okay

 

The saab is hot.

I'm a sedan guy, dont know why. I cant do coupe's, suv's, crossover's, or none of that. I want something thats actually not made in the US, no offence, and saab is made in the us

 

3rd gen TL are made in the US aren't they? hehe i think you're saying you don't want american brands (SAAB has big ties with GM)


what about the EVO? Merc C class?

 

3rd gen TL, i'll let that one slide :-)

 

man that sabb looks really good, I was considering getting one. Not disrespect to Acura but you got to get that 5 Series it is really fresh

 

If he was looking at cars such as the IS350, 530i and the TL what makes you think he would look at those cars.....The price difference is wayyyy offf
