Interesting thread from another forum

I was surfing some other car forums and found this neat comparison. I'm not sure if I'm breaking the rules by doing this, but I'm only trying to let TL'ers know what people are saying about their rides from afar.

Yeah it's good to see what other people think about the TL.. I've noticed that people on other forums do give it a great deal of respect (and probably secretly wish they had gotten one instead of that 330i) but everyone has their preference. The worst thing I've seen/heard said about the TL is that it's a grandma's car and it's sooo not..

Dam, if they thought the Volvo's tranny was worse than the TL's that thing must be made of pot metal and filled with KY Jelly.

Gurly meen - they haven't the upper body strength to handle the "gobs of torque steer". Well, Road Rage can - 6'1" /210 pounds of US-Army trained Grade A beef.

Ha, they mention multiple times that they enjoy the exclusivity of the Volvo...there is now a TL at "every intersection." Well, I wonder why? How could Acura possibly be outselling that wheezing 5 cylinder Ford shoe box with the sloppy transmission?

Read the post by jazee in that forum. Its in the middle of the 2nd page. Its a very good comparison of some different cars from a "HUGE HONDA racing/technology ACURA fan".
