Car shopping.
I gotta buy a new car, my current mobile is falling apart fast. I had my heart set on the Infiniti G35 sedan, until I test-drove one on Sunday and I really don t like the clutch. It takes a lot of effort to push in until this one point where it suddenly lets go, and the engagement zone is about half an inch of stroke, it s really aggravating to try to get a smooth launch. The shifter is ok, a bit rubbery. Problem is I ve been spoiled by my RSX-S, Honda is known for having some of the best clutch and shifters in the business, so if I want to leave the Acura fold I may have to deal with less Stick Joy. There s a new TSX coming out this month, might give that a try. I m test driving a Lexus IS250 tonight, I ve been in one before and thought it was a bit cramped inside, but I ll take too much snugness over crappy drive-feel any day. I m quickly running out of options here, I swore off BMW, Audi, and VW for their low reliability rep. Oh well. Vroom vroom.
