Why are people getting excited comparing our slow Acuras
My car is supercharged. It is a lot of fun to drive, especially around the backroads
It is still a slow FWD car
Winning an RL vs TL race is like winning the Special Olympics

Haha at least we're on the same page then. I love my car to death and the blower totally made it more fun to drive and gave me lots of power all over the powerband... but it's still not going to "smoke" many things out there

I was driving around on Sunday and a guy honked at me and pulled up next to my car. I was wondering if I was about to get shot in a road rage incident. Then he told me my gas door was open and I was all "phew"
And then later another dude honked at me and gave me a thumbs up in my rear-view mirror
Sunday was cool

I understand it's easy to talk about something without witnessing, but I really expected better than that.

so you had an experience where your RL outran a TL (theyre both hideously slow).
how are you going to argue with all of the magazines that tested both cars and every one of them independently clocked a faster time for the TL? please dispute that.

Then I tried it for my self and tossed the magazines out.
When they test, they brake torque the sh!t out of cars. I think it's safe to assume that it might not have worked so great with SH-AWD.
either way, I read the same magazines and then tested it for my self.
I don't dispute their numbers, maybe that's what they got. That's not what I got.

of course, there's always a chance that there was something wrong with my 06 TL or the G35's I was going up against.
We can throw in more cars in the mix and test, I'm all for it.

you know what's really fast for a sleeper? the S550....had the EX in the shop today, rain sucked so nix on the SLK, i borrowed my dads car....
never actually drove it...but i think i would honestly give up both EX and SLK for a S550 4matic...jesus
only bad thing was driver's seat was so ...uncomfortable...i like bucket seats/sports seats...not enough lumbar support on the S550
so...i had a grandma come in to test fit her new dentures today...and she grabbed my ass....i feel kinda violated....and then she tried to hook me up with her daughter that has no citizenship.....how does a 58 yr old woman have citizenship but her daughter of 24 doesnt?...i'm lost...or maybe it's just i've never encountered it
