Hey everyone i currently have an 08 acura tl type s and i really wanta nismo 350z. Lemme know what you think should i go for it? The one im looking at is an 08 with 1000miles and custom stereo system with the touch screen and navi and all that, it also has the 25% tints so it looks good.

Thanks a lot

Oranges and Apples are different, so you can't really compare them

Agreed! The TL-s is a fine car. But if you don't have kids and have no plans on having them anytime soon the Z is the purrrfect daily driver in the south! Otherwise, go with the Acura. My gurl has been thinking of ditching her A4 for a TL-s and I totally agree with her. The Audi has had nothing but issues since she has had the car

Nah, if you want a good daily driver, get a BMW 335I. I love my Bimmer!

If you dont need more than 2 seats, get the Nismo. Especially at the prices they are going for now.

Ive had both, 07 tl-s and i traded it in for the nismo. The tl is an awesome car, but like someone said i dont plan on having kids in the near future. The tl is a boring car compared to the nismo, not to mention that the headers are welded to the block and the only mods you can do are intake, exhaust and j-pipe. Not even an ecu was available. And it was still slow on top of it and it stopped at 130 or something like that. The nismo is awsome, keeps pulling all the way to 160 and then some:

I have both the TL type S and Nismo 2007. The TL type S is your every day car and going on long trip! I have about 34,000 on it and still smoke most mustang v6 out there! As for the nismo, it is a great car for the track and weekend warrior, but not your every day car. I have about 5000 miles on it and still enjoy every bit of it. I say get both if you can!

If you want to switch to a rough-riding, noisy sports car, do it.

I like the TL

TL type S 2007 and 2008 are fully loaded (sport tune, suspension, formula one shift, brembo brake, expensive tire, VTEC) + Navigation too. I could have a 2008 335I, but a relative have one and was not very impressive; thus, I settle down for the negaro nismo!

I drive a 2008 Nismo that I love. I bought a Acura TL-S for my wife to drive which she loves. The Acura is an incredible car but don't miss the key word in my last sentence. I bought the Acura TL-S for my WIFE to drive. Hope that helps make up your mind....

I actually raced a TL at the 1/8th mile track last friday. Not a bad looking car but I actually beat him by almost 2 car lengths. And I have yet to lose to a stock mustang GT.don't get me wrong, they're quick, but the NISMO is a little quicker. And I have actually ran quicker times in my 335I! As far as not being impressed by the 335I, why not? What exactly were you expecting?
