When I think about baller cars, i think of $60k and up cars w/ aftermarket rims and other mods.
For $32k the TL is a nice car, but if you want a little more status, then you need to spend $13k more to get a BMW.

Nope. These days a "baller" vehicle is something like an Escalade EXT with 24" rims or simular type suv looking vehicles. BTW, if it's not mentioned in some rap song, it's probably not consider as a baller car.

BMWs are, for the most, not baller cars. Benz, Lex and Caddy is what they talk about in terms of low-end. Of course Bentleys are there high end cars.
No, TLs are far to fun to be a baller car.

You can looki down on Cheap benz's, late 90's model bmw's such as 318 crap. The TL is definetly an above advrage car. But still the last stop b4 having a "baller" car. Usually the car you buy after your TL will reach "baller" status.

A TL with a drop and some HRE's, Fikses, or Lowenharts may put you in a balla status.
I mean an Impala SS (94-96) with 20's dont even come to $30K!!
But lots of people think that car is balla for some odd reason.

I don't think its at baller status, my bros SL55 AMG that he just ordered is baller status :-) Can't wait for him to get it, so I can take it from him for awhile. The funny thing is he AGREED to it to, he said I could have it for a week or 2, what a nice bro :-)

I agree with JPTLS21, "the next car you buy after your TL will put you in the BALLER category." The TL is just like the prelude of luxury, then you graduate to that big baller car. I plan to graduate to a Benz S500, Q45, or LS430 <<real baller cars, even the 3.5RL can't touch them..........it's just so sad that Honda's and Acura's look so alike, I mean people mistake my car for an Accord all of the time.............You cant mix a Lexus GS for any Toyota, thats for sure.................

too me a car is what ever you want it to be. How ever as far as a baller car you need to take in consideration a couple of things.
What is everybody else driving in your area.
How old are you are you young driving a TL/TLS.
What Modds have you done to your car to make it Unique.
What is you car parker in front of when you go to bed.
Are you leasing or are you buying your car.
Ex. I'm 23 I bought my car when I was 22 it's paid for and I got a nice car in comparison to others my age and it parked infront a nice house so I guess I am a baller buy my own standards and my peers!

I'm 18 in college, It's a nice car and I love it, but it's not at that "baller" level. When I see some of these cars over here I'm like "holy %$#@:wow:", but a TL...it's more like "wow, you have a nice car".
I still love it:smokin:

the question is more, are you a baller?? if you are, the car don't really matter.
its tru, your not driving an s600 on dubs, but who gives a ****, throw on some chrome 19's and springs, and you'll make quite an impression in a tl.
i've seen people turn civics into "baller cars", its all in the attitude and execution.
play on playa...

IMO, the TL is not exactly a baller car. Its nice and all but theres alot of cars that can pull up right next to you and make you feel like s***. A baller car is a high end luxury automobile (a big body) Mercedes, Bmw, Jaguar, etc with 20" wheels and a chrome grille.

Funny you guys brought this up...
I got a friend who thinks my car is the funk b/c of the 19's BR5's and all my other mods...But he's also 21...But I think I will be in the status of a baller, b/c my next purchase will be either the Q45 or the GS430..not a big benz fan, nor BMW...And yes I do have a house, and yes my car was paid off w/ in a year..but a car still makes you look hot....its all show baby...
and by the way, I'm sure all of us who have mods will agree, people break there necks when they see our cars, so they are dope..
peace...

In my home town (approx. pop. 3500 ppl.), I get starred down in my car. I am only 21 but when people see a "relatively" expensive car with a young man behind the wheel there heads turn and it gets really annoying. When I'm at school it is an entirely different atmosphere and my car is simple above average.
