6spd, please post specific data on the residual values, or estimated residual values for the 04 TL and the 04 G35 sedan. Everything I found either showe the TL had better resale value or very close to the G35.

The G35 sedan was discounted a little less than a year out. I think Swat Dude at this point is just trying to get a rise out of some of the haters on the forum because of their TL bashing (especially TL_6spd).
BTW, even though Acura had the best sales month ever with their TL, so did Infiniti with their G35. I believe approx 6 thousand units were sold (sedan and coupe) and 7 thousand TLs were sold both companies banked.

I think their reliability, resale, and sell price after discounts are so close that any difference could even be attibuted to a statistical difference. For the 34th time on this forum...I think both are fine cars, I just liked the TL better and I think its a joke when some moron comes on here trying to tell everyone his g35 is sooooooo much better.

I just talked to my friend that works as a tech at the Acura dealer where he is located. He said he already has 2 new TL in for trannys dieing. 18 TSX as well in line for new ones, on the lot. Recall.

Gentlemen,
This forum is not for personal attacks on each other, but rather a means of discussing issues related to the Acura TL. If you want to carry on personal disputes, I suggest you do it via email, or somewhere else.
Govern yourselves accordingly.
