Personal preference, but I'm not all that impressed with the G35's interior. I have a couple of friends that LOVE their TLs. I know you're more looking for sporty and at the A4, but FWIW I have another friend that loves his A6 4.2. I have no experience with the Lexus or BMWs.
I didn't read all of the responses, but in case it wasn't mentioned, I believe the TSX is smaller than the TL.
Have some fun test driving though
Yes, the TL is on the list. But not the current model. I think it's atrocious and I've seen some horrible reviews.
First test drives this weekend.
I've had a 330i 4-dr AT for 8 years. Very reliable, although repairs are expensive. Also a great combination of agility and comfort. The size is what it is. It's fine for me. The new 3 Series is slightly bigger.
Recently, I went shopping to see about replacing it, and I decided that the new BMWs (1-Series and 3-Series) are not that much better than mine. I felt about the same way about the MB C class. The Lexus IS didn't do much for me. So I'm not replacing it.
One point you might consider is that all the new BMWs use run flat tires. There's not even a well for a spare tire in the trunk. I don't know if this is good or bad, but it would give me pause. The tires make a huge difference in the perfomance and comfort with my car.
I saw they all have run flats now. I guess I'll have to drive them and see if there's anything wrong with them.
What about VW CC. I am strongly leaning towards one of these.

I will say they are attractive. After owning a VW back in college, I'm not eager to try the whole VW thing again.
