is300- to small for me. id get it if i was 5'7 but im 6'3

new q45 - amazing..but i cant afford it
i30t - to much of a maxima
bmw330 - same as is300

tl type s - top on my list but it seems like it's interior isnt as attractive as the others. looks good on certain angles and not so on others. drives good. sometimes it reminds me of an accord but other times it looks really nice. i dont know im confused. i want a 4 door clk for the same price hehee

benz c230 - havent test drove it yet. need you'r opinions on it. i think it looks good and its interior is nice. i konw its not as sporty as the others.

all other cars - either out of my price range or i dont like them

 

OK

'02 Acura TL-S
Satin Silver/Ebony, w/out NAV

 

Hmm... just check Mr Hyde pics of his TLS and I am sure you will make up your pic on getting the TLS.

2002 Black on Black TL TypeS

 

How about a naked A6 for about $35K?

 

I'd go w/ the TL-S --> of the choices you posted. Do you like Saab's (9-3 Viggen .. quick car!) or Volvo's? I take it you're in the $30-35K range (OTD). How about the Lexus ES300, or do you want more kick in acceleration --> The Benz C320 is sharp, just be prepared for so-so Benz fit and finish quality (on the new C-classes, from what i hear) and high maintenance costs. I've owned a '96 C280 and I currently have a '99 E-Class. Also, are you concerned w/ RWD in the winter? I was, that's why i opted for the '94 ES300 back then, and the Acura now (i live in the midwest). Size an issue? TL-S is very spacious in the back w/ me comfortably seated in front (I'm 6' even).

Best of Luck.

Oh, and the TL-S's standard options will cost ya on the Benz, Volvo, BMW, and Infiniti, so watch out.
