Finally...letting my baby go....help me find a new one?
I have been thinking and thinking.....and its coming to same answer......I need to let my baby go. 
I have been visiting all the other forums out there......and i need everyone's help and advice.
Why is TL not for me?
because its everything i wanted at first, simply put Luxury and Performance with quality all in one. However I wanted to emphasize on Performance, handling, and also more "sports" car look as well....more performance moddable....
I came to this conclusion because I know I will need a car like TL later down the road, when married and have kids......so now is the only time for me to go nuts.
Please pick your fav and post reasons.
My first is S2000 and then STI and so on.
Thanks in advance.

Before the Flames...... 
I am posting this poll not to be dependent on it..... but to get general TL community opinions on the cars that I am looking to replace my TL.
thank you.

i think the TL is BOTH luxury & performance.. the others are no competition in that category, except maybe the G35, but ... i'd still choose the TL over g35. just .02.

Mazda3 and Honda Civic in
Sti
S2000... great car but not for daily driver
Evo.... good car but like the WRX better
RX-9... horrible power and horrible MPG, but the coolest looking of the bunch
G35.... Still dont think this will not have enought of the "Peformance" for you

Here is the link to the thread about the car. https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/scored-new-ride-today-lousy-cell-phone-pics-inside-310353/
I have not had an opportunity to drive the TL 6MT, but like the gear box AND clutch better than the TSX 6MT and Accord EX-V6 6MT.
Great handling car and the top goes down so much faster than my MB SLK-320 6MT.
Love the two-tone interior. I wish the car had a little more storage, but that is not the end of the world. I remember a thread somewhere about a secret compartment, but I cannot find the thread or the compartment.

MG7726 - man I know.....hanging at S2kI and was shocked at their capabilities.
DarkSith - I think s2000 does look like a head of a snake....quite charming
gdubb - good input, I am pondering that thought....s2000 for daily driver seems little uncomfy....but I can't have TL and another car.......unless another job???? j/k
its coming to S2000, STI, or since this board likes G35 so much.....I like them....i think Z might have been better option to put out there.

That is the most logical choice, however I have 04 6mt w/ 23000 miles and if I pull the trigger to get another car, I think I can get good deal. (I might be wrong) I don't know how our resale is right now, hopefully acura is just as good as infiniti
BTW - Ever since my interest in other vehicles, I got aspec body kit, aem intake, CT short shifter, 20% tint
just trying to keep the TL rather than trade.

still a Masshole
I voted the Evo but have mixed emotions. I think the G35c is the best looking but I see them everywhere now (not that it's a bad thing). The STi and Evo are pretty similar so it just depends on which you like better. I think they are great performance vehicles with 4 doors.
If you TL is already slightly modded as you posted above then maybe it's worth keeping it and just doing some suspension mods and maybe the blower. If you really want balls to the wall straight line power talk to allmotor and see if the CLS6 Turbo can be retrofitted to fit the TL engine bay.

I have been thinking......what do I want? I mean TL has pretty much EVERYTHING.
then it hit me......and I think this is what TL lacks.
Fun.
I want to have "excitement" "exilaration" ".....OMG!
"and I want to keep it 10+ years, knowing that I had a car worth noting in my life (too serious?) LOL!!
just noting, this might be momentary.....I might have been just spoiled by TL and want a "perfect" car that doesn't exist.
I just might yearn for comfort after I get any of the car above. remember, grass is always greener on the "other" side

Watch out for that. Like I said in another thread, if you spend a lot of time sitting in traffic or driving in snow, then you might regret getting rid of the TL for performance reasons. I would just mod the hell out of it!
