G35 or TL???

I am looking for a more reasonable car for longterm ownership and I cant decide on getting either:

-2004 Acura TL fully loaded with navigation or

-2006 G35 sedan with just the basic heated seats sunroof xenons

both are AT but the TL comes with an A-spec package.

Neither, you should have an option - "I don't care!!!"

If you didn't care, you wouldn't have read the thread or thought to post in it. C'mon show everyone you have a heart. You really do care, you may not want to admit it but you really do.

Correct! I do care, but not for G35 or TL.

TL = FWD G35 = RWD The TL is better looking though.In the end I would go with the G35.

I was going to but I have decided to just go ahead and purchase the extended warranty for my 325i.
Yeah trading it in would not be financially smart.

AN equivalent suspension setup from Comptech will cost you less than the factory A-spec kit since you don't have to get the add-on 'aero' components. At least when I had my TL, the dealership stated they couldn't just sell me the suspension parts of the A-spec kit.
