why wouldnt you get a 3 series vert instead?
Well, a similarly optioned 3-series is usually $5-10k more expensive than a G. Simple enough reason for me anyway...

Yeah...go to bmwusa.com and build one yourself. I just built one for $62k and there were plenty of options left.

That's a very nice front end!

And these things are going for a steal in the pre-owned market...I was browsing autotrader yesterday and an 09 G37 can be found for 26k ..Maybe I should replace the 328i

One of the best looking "entry-level" luxury vehicles now. It'd be a tossup between this and the Mercedes C-Class for me for looks.

That's one of the things that kinda sucks for the FX50, we could not get the aluminum trimming...I mean, I suppose it's neat and all that it's real wood in the car, but, I'd rather take the DIECAST metal look.

I don't think that is available with white exterior. If you pick white, the only choice you have is charcoal interior with brown wood trim.

This generation infiniti sedans are definitely a good looking car. The previous generation sedan were so dowdy looking. Too bad Acura did not evolve the design of the TL.

Is it just me, or does the rear bumper make the car look like it has a really big butt?

Why is it so hard for the asian companies with two lines to design cars that dont look alike? This thing reminds me of a sentra se-r in the front--not a good thing in a 40k 'luxury' sedan.

The front looks a mess, that ass is a bad joke, and those wheels are just SAD. But hey, who cares how it looks and drives when it has '328' HP...lol

you're probably one of the few that likes the TL's design too, right?

Huh? What exactly are you implying? This is a car that is always compared to the 3-Series in driving satisfaction and feel. No other car comes close to the 335i, with exception of the new S4. If you are implying otherwise, you are sadly mistaken and are severely lacking in knowledge about these cars.

Haha, just look at that guy's previous posts. He's just a tool...not even worth a response as it seems.

The rear end does not flow with the overall design.
The bumper looks tacked on.

supposedly new color schemes. from what i see/read, speedo/tach gauges are all white now instead of blue-white. aluminum trim is brushed aluminum now instead of washi trim. shifter surround and heated seat knobs are different.

The lower half of the rear bumper was revised slightly. Works for me...

Here's the older version
