Why would someone put 258 bhp Acura above 306 bhp Lexus?

you're right, I'm sorry

I'll try and keep it more factual in the future, it just drive me nuts that people never learned grammar or spelling and when they get somewhere like here with no spell check, well we all know what happens then, and it's not limited to japanese car forums

I'll not dignify your very rude and insensitive comments with a proper response befitting of your tirade. Obviously I did use the improper term here but the response quoted above was TOTALLY uncalled for.

And by the way, if you can honestly say that you have never in your life a mistake in word usage, then you have all the right in the world to criticize. If you have, then I suggest you keep your rude comments to yourself.

JPTL-S,
With exception to referencing your mom - which most of us would understand your disgust, "Mr. Drip's comment came across as pretty funny... Sorry I laughed at your moms expense.


As for the question:
"Why would someone put 258 bhp Acura above 306 bhp Lexus?"

I would have to say: Because this is an Acura forum, not Lexus...

Bottom line, both the TL and 350 are sweet cars.

I wish. That was just a joke. My point was - all high end cars are RWDs.
