The sad inbetween zone
I have a feeling I'll be trading in my TLS within a couple of years.
It's kind of a sad feeling. Sort of like banging a girl even though you know you're going to break up..okay, not exactly but you get what I mean.
I was thinking of brake upgrades, etc. but now I feel my hands are tied.
Oh well...I still love her...the throttle response still throws me back in my seat and unless I can get an AWD car that does the same for less than $60k Cdn ($50k USD) I'm not letting her go....
I like but don't love the new RL - it's sort of underwhelming

STI, Coupe, 350 - all too small for me
G35 = styling doesn't appeal, they need to make the sedan look more like the coupe
2006 M35 = now we're talking but way too pricey I think
Maybe the new lexus GS or an A6...we'll see

M5??..Nice car but just think if you break something.. its a lot cheaper to fix a NEW RL ( that may never have a problem) than it is to import NEW M5 parts from Weinerville..
A6?? If riding in an A4 is like riding in a GTi, then the A6 must be the Jetta version..
Personally, I would just keep the TL..

I'll wait to see what the redesigned G35 will be. The current sedan is boring to me.
Infiniti M35, not M5!
I had an A4, it was a great vehicle. I just wouldn't want to own one out of warranty.
If they put SHAWD on the 3rd gen TL I think I'm a done deal - the RL is just too pricey; probably has gadgets and features that I don't care for.
Actually, the ultimate would be a 3rd Gen TL AWD hybrid that gets 40mpg in traffic but kicks you in the pants when you floor it.
WRT thinking about it, that's just me! I'm ALWAYS thinking about my next car....
