Default New car pics

Well I snapped a few pics, nothing great since my digi is several years old.

















This is for the wife, we got rid of her '05 Tahoe for a sporty car. I'll be honest that thing is very nice. Drove IS350, G35, 328i and a C300 all were nice (I really liked the G35), but the Acura won her heart.

The TL buy far, I drove the G35 about 7-9 times in two different days in different conditions. The G's interior was bad ***, top notch and I can say it had more features that I'd probably never use. The TL has to many right now for me. The G's shifter and throw was notch and the motor mounts were to soft and it just didn't feel smooth. The TL has a smooth throw and short stroke, ****** amazing if you ask me. I was on it today taking off and it was so quite I had a hard time taking off thinking it was not running.

As for pricing:

The sticker price was $44,588.00 (I'm looking at it now), it is fully optioned with everything except the body mods, the sticker stated MSRP was $38,895.00. I went in at the end of month the GM wanted the damn thing gone, not looking at the paperwork, but I'm sure it was 36 and small change. The crazy thing is the G was less expensive on paper/sticker, but after the deal making it was more expensive then the TL.

If you want one you better act soon since they will end production in October or November of this year and won't have a new platform for several years after that.

I looked at one, they had a black on black auto and a dark grey on black 6 speed. It had a ton of room and the interior was extremely nice. Awesome looking inside and out if you ask me. The wife and I were sitting in it and she state "yeah, but it's a Pontiac". I said get out, lets go I knew she wasn't going to get it.

either way, you know youll have reliability and good resale with this car.
That's exactly why I was down with the TL, it's a limited production. The TL Type S is 1 in every 20 TL's made. I think that was the number. The G is popping up on rental car lots, so that will kill it. Next time you drive count how many IS's you see and BMW sold 144k 3 series last year and the C300 was total dog **** according to 5 different publications I read.

So in the end I will have a decent value car, that is limited production and another one won't be produced for 2-4 years (if they follow the pattern it will be 4 years). So I'm happy with it, could I see me driving a G8 oh yeah, but it's the wife's ride.
