Wow, theslik1 is on the ball with his test drives. Both of these automobiles are superior, precision automobiles in their own respect, yet the Nissan has a bit more of a sporty feel to it; that is, one that can be felt on ALL roads, as a daily driver. You see, the Infiniti (V35) makes cruising past the average soccer mom effortless. The Acura requires a little more stop, and trades some control for an advantage in the "feature and ammenity" department. It is still a very solid, respectable, thermally-efficient automobile, but it's no Nissan. Nissan has always put a sporty twist into it's cars while keeping them in their class. Always. They've just finally got their stying in check with North American buyers. Sadly, though, the Japanese car companies are slowly becoming westernized by enlargening their cars and their "cubic inches" simultaneously. McWorld has even gotten to the beloved Skyline GT-R, with it's new enlarged VQ30DE that will become the VQ32DETT V-6 (!) so it will surely sell in the States, and Nissan knows that they can get away with this because loyalists will still enjoy that we finally have the Skyline... and it will still blow the pants off of any American car... ha.
