Used new body GS300? You can get into them right at 30k. Acura TL? RL?

I wouldnt buy the g35 based on the cars i looked at before buying my TL. Most of the G35's looked in kind of bad shape considering. Headlights yellowing badly, grainy, coarse leather, hazy gauges etc.. I looked at a lot of g35's, and i was very interested based on price and power, rwd etc... But they all seemed to push me off with so many things falling apart in such a short period!

If you are looking only at the LGT and the G35, i would buy the subaru. Perhaps even a new b-spec if you can afford it. Neither look bad, but i would assume the suby will hold together far longer.

Take care!

Mark

I am leaning alot towards the LGT, the reason being I have always liked them. I want something more refined and a bit bigger than what I have now, but also keeping the AWD. I do like the TLs and TSXs, but I dont want to own a FWD. I am going to try my hardest to get a spec B, but I wont be dissapointed with whatever I get.

You basically posted the car you wanted in your first post, and said no to everything else. I don't see what the problem is..
