Bye-Bye TL, hello M

got rid of my 08' TL in april for a 09 Volvo XC90(wife), then I traded in my 07 Ford Ford truck for an Infiniti m35.
What do you fools think? I ask because most of you have great taste when it comes to fly rides.







Oh ya, here is a pic of the TL, so this thread does not get closed down..

I agree.. I never fell in love with them on the TL. They were just too big.. But on the M, they fit perfectly..

Agree with everyone else on the wheels.. fit the M better.

But I personally would have gotten the updated M with smaller tails, those tails are just HUGE.

Looks great man!

I've always loved the M's. I tried to find one with the sport package before I got my TL, but they were too pricey. The interior of those are sooooo sexy

I tried, the holes where the plate is are huge. Not sure if Infiniti has plugs like Acura. I hate the front plate. I need to do some research..

Brilliant move and congrats. You just added 1,000 points to your classy factor. All you need is to call JP or Admiration and you'd be set.
