Take it for what it's worth...

Sweet article.

I'm quite shocked at the statement '"Imagewise, we're going in the direction of BMW" says Tom Elliot, executive VP of Honda, Acura's parent. '

I can understand how BMW and MB products might have influenced the design of other luxury car makers, but to admit its influence out to the public is something I didn't expect. . .at least not from ultra conservative Honda/Acura.

I'll take a 330i any day over a TL or G35, and twice on Sunday. In that segment, I want a RWD car which the TL isn't, and I don't like the styling of the G35 -- interior looks like a Nissan. Both are far more competitively priced than a 330, however, so that may be turning a lot of heads.

They also forgot to mention that the Car and Driver comparison compared a 325i to the G35 -- not a 330 -- and the G35 just barely beat it for the top spot even though it has nearly 100 extra HP.

Make the TL RWD and I will have to reevaluate my stance.
