Conclusion:Ultimately, though, the 2009 Acura TL SH-AWD couldn't claw its way back from the drubbing given to it by the sheer speed of the 2009 Infiniti G37. It doesn't hurt that the G37 really shrinks around its driver when you want it to and expands when you don't. In this respect, the G37 is the four-door sports car you always wanted, the car that lets you change and grow up without forgetting where you came from.
As a Honda fan, (S2000 and '09 Pilot currently) I am truly disappointed with the Acura direction. TL fans are better off with the new V6 Accord.
G37 sedan for me.
I would buy an Accord V6 sedan if it wasn't so unattractive. All the numbers make sense (19/29 mpg, 280 hp and the price). I just cannot bear the thought of seeing the new Accord design on my driveway every morning.
