First of all you have to know the value of each car and how much they are going to sell it to you.

But for my experience is between TL-S and G37. I would pick TL

Dont bother with a V6 TSX.

buy: blindly, i would say a slightly used TL-S
lease: value per PMT on a outgoing G37s will be better than newly released TSX V6. although, your local dealerships will sway your decision...no outisde advice needed.

i would think a slightly used TL-S would be the best bang for the buck. i'd probably go that route.

yea, the G37 would be my preference out of the three, but if you want bang for buck, i'd go with TL-S.

I like the design of the TL 2007/8 I really don't know why Acura change it, and the type S has everything power, electronics and design, the G37 has more power but the design it's ok, thanks for all your answers.

4G TL = turd, imo, of course.

I'd just get a slightly used 08 TL-S. It is an awesome vehicle.

I agree with the guys about the Type S. I honestly think that the best value for the dollar and the most bells and whistles that come standard are definitely the Type S. It seems like Lexus makes you pay more for the name and you don't get as much as you do with the Acura.

I had a loaner G37 Sedan while my FX was being serviced and I loved the power and handling. The big thing that sucked was the interior, sucked to the point that I would choose the TL-S. I had a basic 05 TL with the ASPEC suspension which didn't handle as well as the G but the interior was soo much nicer. I have never driven an S so hopefully that would put it closer to the G handling and suspension wise.

Def. get the TL-S

Type-S without a doubt.

The G is too small and the gas milage is shitty.

If you're choosing between a TL type-S used an a new Infiniti, I would get the Infiniti. Also if its the G37x S all the better, they are nice cars.

I love the TL type-S, but I will never buy used after reading the Valet thread, sorry.

What does the Valet thread have to do with buying or not buying an Acura? What happened in the Valet thread could happen to any car-not just an Acura. Believe me, if it happens to a Type S, it SURE as hell would happen with an Infinitiy.

So I'm not understanding your logic.

A lot of votes for the TL-types S. I drove the 07 model and its a Heckly and Jeckyl car.

In automatic its nothing special to me, but in the 6 speed manual OMG does that car open up. In 6 speed it was the most awesome car I have ever driven. It revs like a lightweight 4 cyl in the 6 speed. In auto the fun factor is tamed so down.

Something to think about.
