I saw the commercial last night and had to laugh, when they stripped the panels I said out loud "Where's the rear diff??!?" My bro in law has a tsx, its nice but the plastics inside and the long overhang turn me off plus it has very gimmicky styling. I guess Acura's answer to their engineering probs=lying!!!!!

Honda sucks now. It's like they are trying to make the ugliest cars out there. I can't understand why all of the Acura's look like a deformed Godzilla.

Kind of like the guy at applebees who was sitting behind me looking out the window comparing my G35 coupe to his altima coupe and how his car was better in every category. Especially how his altima was a baby 350z and my G was fancy maxima. It's idiots like that which those ads capture. RWD *****! Lexus and Infiniti have always known that's what's up in the higher class market. Acura is like the hippy out of the group

No kidding? I've never met anyone who placed a Nissan Altima on a higher level than the G35. Ridiculous.

The G35 is a luxury sports car. The Altima is a family sedan.

If anything, the 350z is a "baby" G35. More track-oriented without all the luxury amenities of the G35.

The Altima isn't even in the conversation...
