Those Nissan folks on the g35 forums are going crazy and all excited over th 07 g35. I checked out the pix and I honestly think it's similar to the previous gen. Same kinda shape but just a bit different. And you are correct, the interior ain't got nothing on the TL.

Yeah, it is the lowest. I got a deal for being a past customer and putting down a500 dollar deposit. This is my 2nd TL-S. My dad bought the first one when I was 14. this is my 2nd at 19. w00t

The interior is horrible without a doubt. The navigation is not ergonomic or easy to adjust and that analog clock is so dated. The plus over the TL-S an obvious advantage is the performance and the engine, AWD availability and etc. I just think the styling and interior is hard to live with, much like the Mitsu Evoluton VIII ugly but under the skin powerful.

Talking




German key fobs were already out before Acura thought of a "new" key fob.

Imagine that. Acura is going German. The new TL to me, will eventuall turn into this (The one on the right)...



I'm not impressed, somebody needs new ideas.

Yup, I'm biased, and I don't care.

You got jacked.

48x1.06 =51494 (near what I'm paying after taxes) - 500

roughly about 51.5 after taxes with all them taxes in it (the stupid charges like the air or whatrever it is from alberta)

Rest assured you guys don't need to be jealous because I"m getting one for cheap, it's oka y guys, when I'm the first one in the city with a white one and I have pics with my bill of sale (i'm not sharing where I get my TL-S from, last thing I need is biters for my dealersihp) then I'll blurr out the name and share the price =)

just got mine yesterday. 6 spd black on black. Fun that the car to me drives smoother than the 06 5at i trade in. They did good with the navi and other things in the car as well as the dim light under the dash so at night you barely see your feet. The key fob will not work .The key is milled for one and the key itself if it were possible to do it is thicker than the old keys. Paid sticker

Nice Type S! Black is the only way to go with those wheels.
Do they you give you an option to choose another wheel type if you don't like the Type S wheel? (ie: A-spec wheels?)

Lights

I still like my blue lights better. For years, I've always hated the orange lights BMW used to have in their cars, and now the Type S has ugly red lights...blaaaaa!!

Awesome looking car. I agree with you about the wheels on the black car looking better. Are you the first member with an 07? Enjoy the ride.

Congrats!!
Excellent Choice, I am trading my Black 05 A spec for an 07 type S (decided not to go with the G35 due to the cheap interior)as soon as they get a black one, couldnt decide on a better color so black again it is!!,

how is the acceleration?,I test drove one and really couldnt decide how much faster it was but I know it was!
I think i am going to go with the taupe interior although it will depend on what is available soonest

No you're not you stupid ass. Don't talk shit that you can't back up

You have to be 19 legally to buy a car in BC. Not only that.
Your credit starts getting built at age 19, so you're not going to buy one you stupid shit.

Anyways I'll scan the bill of sale on mine. It's coming mid-november you dumbass.

Don't talk shit to a kid who's dad is worth over 7+ million dollars of equity

Fucktard.

I built my credit at age 16 using my 02 Type S as trade in and down payment plus 8 in cash.

Now what? WHo's hating what you fucking prick? My dad drives an e320 4matic my brother's 23 driving an 05 rx330 with the 14k package.

What? What? Mom's getting an Sl55 AMG by Aug 07. What? Who's hating where?

Fuckin shithead.
