I'm generally critical of these guys for being way too generous in their reviews, to the point it feels like they are paid off by manufacturers for always saying nice things.

They earned a little more respect in my book for this review of the TLX. Its really been marketed hard as a "sport" sedan but I get the impression it's more fluff than substance (it is FWD and heavy after all). That grille still looks weird and the interior looks cheesy and cheap in real life vids.
