If you want to beat a G35 and that is your first priority, they're having a great sale right now on Porsche Boxter S's. Just a little bit more than the TL.
Or a Lotus Elise!

BTW how do they build cars to break speed record? I know, I know, they throw some NOS on it and see what breaks then take action and do it again until they reach there desired HP without blowing, sound familiar? Only thing is Hondas doing it post-production.

Unless you have a real strong reason to get the auto (wife that may need to drive the car and won't/can't/shouldn't drive an MT), then get the 6MT. Brembo front calipers and LSD say it all.
