...meh, not impressed.

Not nearly the car I expected to see. It was silver with black in interior (headrests at least). I guess from all the auto prototype shots I saw, I expected something with a bit more agressive lines and flair. This, much like the new GS, didn't move me in the least. I went to the site and read specs, and it sounds like it's loaded. Option wise, to match the TL, it's a much more hefty price tag.

I dunno. Just thought I'd toss this out since I've heard so many chat about it here. I wanted to dig it....competition in this market segment does nothing but help future purchases, but t's really rather bland.

The 350 sounds like a beast, it would hand a 330i its ass

There's a lot of things that would hand the 330 it's ass, so that's not really saying much. The G still beats it like a red-headed stepchild, as does the TL, the new IS, and some would argue the new A4 coming with their "big" engine.

Found this article on the new IS

This belongs in "Car Talk". That aside, I prefer my TL anyway.
