Thinkin about trading in the A4 for a is300 or a CL type S

dude i gotta ask you a question
your a 1.8t front trac.
me too!!!!
it is so hard to find fwd used parts.
will you be parting out your car?
do you have and front trac specific items to part out (28 or 29mm neuspeed rear swaybar , springs , shocks , etc.)
from the cars you listed i would go with a G35 but coupe only

IS300 is RWD, infinitely preferable to a CL...
On the flip side, the CL is significantly faster with a 40hp advantage...so if all you care about is straight line, get the CL.
Both dealers will come down on prices.
So i take it your little stunt didn't affect your chances of getting ANOTHER car? Wow.

Man, if you can swing it and find a used G35 coupe with the 6 speed manual...
definitely do it, that car is freaking gorgeous and quick. I would get one of those over a CL type S anyday (My mom has a TL type s).

Not the CL
I test drove the CL type S. Have any of you tried driving it? I stalled out twice. The clutch is very finicky. The car is also very long-i did not enjoy the car at all. IMO stay away from it.

Apparently you haven't driven the IS300. Ricey interior and terrible version of the tip.
I guess what I should be saying is drive both and form your own opinion. If you're like my friend and I that drove all of the competition in one day, I think you'll agree. I love rear wheel drive, but can't get past the other crap.
the Type S has a very soft suspension for a so-called sports sedan.
