2nd Gen TSX V6 or a 3rd gen TL-S.

Seriously, the 4th gen are a bit , I can't drive a Lexus (long story, nice cars but my evil stepmother has always driven Lexus' and it ruined the possibility of me ever driving one for probably my whole life). I don't like the G35 styling, either the interior or exterior. I'm not confident enough in domestics yet which rules out Caddy's and Lincoln's. I'd lease a V-dub, BMW or Audi in heartbeat. The Europeans make gorgeous cars. But hell if I'd ever own one past 60K miles unless I wanted to drop major $$$ on repairs.

So I'm left with wanting a nicer TL than the one I have now . But with those ugly waffle rims and reduced mileage with the TL-S, I'm planning on sticking with my 2006 and hoping for big things with the 5th gen.

i ve only had mine a few months, but more than likely a 4G TL, or a ridgeline! -would have loved a ridge but was out of my price range, and my commute is a bit long to justify the mpg.

Not sure what will replace the TL, but I was thinking of replacing the old (1998 old) Accord to a family-oriented SUV like the Q5 (or something similar). I'm hoping the Accord can last since that's my going-to-work car and not having car payments is NICE!

Probably a 'Vette or a M3. More likely willing to follow justnspace's plan & just keep it as a DD, whilst one of the 2 above become a toy.

My wife essentially took over my 04 TL 6MT since she is the one with the daily commute. I ended up "replacing" the TL with an 02 Audi S8 a couple years back. I still drive the TL periodically but am very happy with the S8. Plus, with the recent snowy winters, the quattro system is very tough to beat.

I really like the new Mustang GT (the coyote engine gets me going). My wife wants me to get a CTS-V. I lean more towards the Mustang.

I was actually talking about this today.. If I ever did get rid of the TL for something 4 door and sporty it would be an 07 gray evo bone stock.

I'm extremely impressed with the future earnings most members here will seemingly be receiving.
