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.
I haven't posted any consumer report data. I don't even rely on there shitty info. See again you have no clue what you are talking about.

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 haven't bashed the TL once. Just someone keeps bashing the G35, and claiming false information. Too bad he is getting owned by his own members on this forum for wrong info too. I think he is right in line with harddrivin.

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.
If you think both cars are fine, quit bashing the fucing G35 then!

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.
Hearsay. I had this friend and his friend's brother's cousin told his mother's daughter that her husband's ex-wife...

The only reason I bash it is because you are such an easily baited ignorant SOB. You are still here after all this time trying to justify the fact you couldn't wait for the TL and blew your load on the G35. I did hear that premature ejaclutaion is common amoung trolls.

Dark, I've seen this a couple of times and although I've been able to figure most of the other ones out, this isn't coming to me. Can you clue me on what ROFLMAO stands for?

I have no reason to leave. You started bashing the G35 in this thread, so I am correcting all your bs info.

You, sir, are the king of bs info. Wasn't it you who said that the G35 had more than two interior color options? Wasn't it also you who called adding a cupholder a significant improvement to the G35's spartan interior?

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.
