There are some G35 guys who daily drive a TSX.

I wouldn't really say the G series is doing any better than it usually does. Those 4,000 plus sales are the sedan and coupe combined. The sedan sold 3000+ which means Audi sold more A4 sedans. The M is obviously going to do better because last year it was the old model and every magazine went out of their way to write the M is showing its age.

On a side note; when have you ever heard any magazine say any BMW is showing its age? I find that funny considering the fact that BMW's usually are around a year or two longer than its Infiniti counterparts.

Anyway, the prior generation M's target sales were 2500 per month and I know it's still early, but 1200 per month is not gonna cut it.

That makes sense to DD the TSX, fewer traffic tickets if you are hauling 328/330 horses just 2 days out 7

On the BMW point above, I was watching Lebron on Saturday before the Mayweather fight. I commented that I do not like Lebron, a friend of mine said something I will never forget. "Do not fight his greatness, Lebron is one of the best players to ever play the game, consider yourself lucky to have lived in the same generation that witnessed his greatness".

I am looking at Lebron differently these days

Whats the link, BWM & Lebron, "Dont fight their greatness....."

It is what is, no magazine is going to state any differently, there are the chosen ones.

i feel the same as many of you. i loved acura and its cars. my tl was awesome and i lusted for the 08 type s when it launched. the body lines, the shape, the sportiness, and the comfort were things i loved about the car. i strongly considered the new tl as well but couldn't stomach the design even though the beak looked better when painted.

I wasn't even interested in the g at first. Was looking at a 1 year old 335I coupe 6MT first until i started reading about the fuel pump issues and the lack of any real warranty when you purchase the "extended" (BS) warranty.

Then, i drove by an infiniti dealer and just popped in. I saw the new body style of the 2010's and i was sold. after that, it took 2 weeks of negotiations with 4 dealerships until i was able to get my car. BO 2010 G37S 6MT w/Navi, spoiler, mudguards, and chin spoiler.

Despite that the car isn't as fast as the 335i, i'm extremely happy with my purchase and find myself staring at my car everytime i get out to walk away...i always turn around and stare.

Actually, I find the body styles to be not as much different in person than I thought they would - went to the dealer for service and checked out the 2010's and in person, I didn't think the front fascia changes were as different/better looking as I initially thought they would be form pictures....plus, as an IMO, I like the old 17's style much, much more than the new tri-spokes. Don't get me wrong, I like the changes better, but I'm not as freaked as I initially was, lol.

That's not to say their cars are crap. Maybe RISKY GUY got a bad case but overall Acura's quality is still at the top. Or part of the reason is because they are assembled in the US?
Probably a loose nut behind the wheel.

Yeah, the fuel pump issue with the 3 pushed me away. There are guys who are on their 5th or 6th HFFP. Insane! Nothing wrong with the TL, but the styling just wasn't doing it for me. Wish the G has more low end torque, but love the car!
