is this gonna turn into another war thread??
as for me, i rather have my cl-s, i think the G is a great looking car from the exterior, the interior isnt the worst but it also isnt the greatest, just my 2 million dollars and 2 cents

Zapata... How can you say the exhaust note of the Z/G35c is gay? It's been said by almost every reviewer that it has one of the best exhaust notes this side of an exotic. Gay??? What are you smoking?????
Also, the interior of the CL is superior, but it's not THAT much better as some of you make it out to seem. Also, the new TL and TSX make the CL look like ass in comparison

I don't have a video of the stock Z's exhaust, but this is the Borla exhaust. Sounds very similar to stock yet deeper. How can you say it sounds gay?

Here is an mp3 of the stock exhaust...

If the G's exhaust note is ANYTHING like the Z's, then there is no where that it is "gay". I've not heard much better stock exhuast notes coming form imports stock in that price range. What is gay is this thread.

look at the symmetry (sp?) of the console of g's compared to the cl's. correct me if i'm wrong, but the g's looks...crowded. also the entire dash of the cl looks flush, like everything belongs there, and nothing is out of place. the g's on the other hand looks hurried and discombobulated (sp?). one of the things that all the reviewers of the cl agrred upon was the layout of the cockpit and ease of use of controls.

It's just not everyday that you hear somebody dislike the exterior design.
I was caught a little off gaurd. No need to get all fussy.

This is why responses on forums are tough due to the fact you can't tell a persons real emotion half the time. My bad.

Like Scrib, I too have owned both. They are different animals. I like them both. The only two features I don't like are the finish on the "waterfall" dash and the steering wheel. The dash is painted/coated plastic and it will scratch I like the 4 spoke steering wheel better than three spoke. (For long distance driving, I like to put my hand on the bottom of the wheel. The CL had an opening there and so does my 96 Exploder).
Engine noise - here the exhaust note goes to the G but the engine noise goes to the CL. Since G doesn't subscribe to VTEC it doesn't have that rush at 4,000 the CL does. Combine the 2 and a winner would evolve.

Also, the interior pics are a bit unfair....that is a non-nav, auto G vs. a CL-S 6 with NAV and without the bowling ball interior. I love both interiors and I have had both cars.

The G35s guage cluster looks like it was painted on there. The wood trim around the center console adds a nice touch too(CL). But other than that, I see no big difference. Except that the controls on the G35(console) are all push button, and the CL has actual knobs that you turn. They both have black consoles. The g35 has black & silver buttons w/crome trim. The CL has regular black buttons.
