I see a hyundai resemblance so as far as the exterior goes...
but i heard it has alot of cool features..hafta wait and see..

 

I quote myself again as this cars looks= blah. The front end looks very good, the rest, not like a 50k car.

 

 

SIgh.....And look at this pic. Inside and out, Infiniti and Lexus just look superior.

 

I think the interiors look nice on them all, and the only one that looks good on the outside is the M45.

agreed.
Thanks for the pics 1SICK very interesting certain shots of the car looks ooookkk others look blah. The car surely needs the larger size wheels. The car seems like a pretty good size auto.

 

I got flamed terribly when I said in another thread that the new M45 and the new RL would close the gap on Lexus considerably. Yet most of your comments on this thread seem to agree with that assesment. The GS may still be superior, but Infiniti and and Acura are going to get more attention from Lexus buyers with these new models. Thanks for the pics, Sick. That's an excellent way to compare the three. I think a test drive of all three would be necessary to decide which to buy. They all have there strong points.

The M45 looks sharp and Infiniti seems to be on a roll lately. The V8 in it seems the most appealing to me anyway. It has more power than the GS V8 and sounds great. At least it did in the old M45 and the current Q45. Oh well, just my $.02.

 

The Scion tC called the new RL today and asked for its center console back.



Oh, yeah, Mike definitely gets "Quote of the Millenium" for the turtle comment.

 

i am really looking forward to teh debut of this car and go and take a quick drive. so far it's a lot of hype, i wanna see how it lives up to

 

It's a Honda Accord rolling on 20's which are hideous IMO. It's not the wheel's fault, though. The car should be riding on more substantial rubber. I imagine that most RL owners would like to keep the few real teeth they have left.

In other words - that standard package would yeild a stupidly harsh ride for a luxury marque's flagship sedan. If those wheels came with a "sport" package - instead of @ base trim - then I'd be more understanding.

And what's with the 7-series rip-off rear-end?

 

C'mon, let's be real. Front is Mazda Millenia. At least the GS and M45 are distinctive and cannot be confused from the front.

 

Why does the front look exactly like an IS?

 

 

I agree with you guys on this one.. The Acura is sweet but not worth 50k.. The motor and drivtrain however are a nice set-up...
BTW - our boys at LExus better watch Infiniti... My homie picked up an M45 and that thing is off the hook.. Ths interior really catches my eye and the exterior look is distinctive...
the LS430 has no equal however... .. but the GS430 has some competition.
