OK guys I didn't mean to start an all out war!!! First let me clarify:

1. It was an older (2000ish) TL Non Type-S (they are still pretty quick, I know because I used to own one.)
2. I don't think that my car is better than anyones...the guy in the TL thought he was the shiet so I had to smoke him....HaHa
3. Hands down I like my benz better than any Acura!
4. Sorry if you can't handle the heat in this forum Mash...

Thank you for clarifying that.
I have been saying that the TL is the older generation NOT type-S, but our fellow member, Mash, never seemed to understand what I was saying before. Maybe it is my english or maybe it is the fact that the guy doesn't really know how to speak or write it well. And, it definitely shows that he can't speak it well from the very NICELY worded PM he sent me earlier LOL :p

Sheesh!!!

this thread is about kill stories, meaning that performance is all that counts, so your comments are irrelevant!!!

Maybe the TL owner could have bought the E320 but liked the TL becasue it was faster. :p

I bought a Mercedes because I was sick of of people saying what a great "value" the car was and how it was built with a Honda Accord Chassis and because girls weren't impressed with an Acura when I took them out on dates, I didn't get any "nookie". Needless to say, now things have changed Ha Ha!

That's exactly it. Regardless of what you drive you either lose or win. There is nothing like spanking SO's ego in the process. The comebacks such as "yeah but I drive X, it's got class" are sorry excuses for someone who could not assess properly how fast the car really is.

Name a few more for us. And define in all characteristics of roadability and the progress of time through miles how everything holds up. The test of time have the leading parameters for the best of cars.

Z8, Aston DB9, 911 Turbo, GT2, GT3. Thats just my preference though, although id still have to take a SL600 black on black wheels to cruise around in. Thats gonna be my first car when i get money, a black Sl600 on Black rims, then the DB9 will come and what ever after that.

Z8?!???
I would watch in amazement if I ever saw one driving....wondering "why buy that for $125k when both the Z3 AND Z4 look better!!" The Z8 is hideous. It is like the Phaeton....what were they thinking (both BMW and VW). The Z8 is so plain.....I dont think I have ever seen one driving, I doubt many people have them.

No Coke is better.
No Pepsi is better.
I like Coke more.
Coke is gross tasting.
Pepsi is too sweet.
Dr. Pepper is better than both.

OK so E320 is similar acceleration to Acura 3.2TL, maybe slower than "newest" TL

Whats REALLY funny though, is these Acura punk-***-tools are not only completely full of themselves, they are stooopid.

For example, they (for the most part) don't have a clue about AMG.

That's where your fun is. These vermin will try to choose a 211 E55 just as if it were the BMW 525i they beat last night.

They get all kinds bewildered. I saw this prep wanna be in a new TL try my buddys E55 on a long uphill run after a stoplight.

I was passenger in the E55. E55 just lurked along at TL speed as the punk tried and tried to steal his lane. Then at about 70 E55 is floored and that TL looked like it slammed on the breaks.

In the split second as he dissappeared behind us I caught a glimpse of his expression....priceless

Not limited to Acuras, you can include pretty much any brand owner who has no clue about what they are doing. In the S4, I get all kinds of benz/bimmer/acurah/whatever idiots that can't figure out traction is kinda useful in the rain and, guess what, most of the time those are cars that would not even touch the S4 on dry pavement either.
