i like the body style on my '03 better than the last 2 all-new TL's....i'd still love a new one tho

i just don't like the rear-end of the new one...but like i said...still hella nice and i bet it's a kick in the ass to drive

i think i'd rather a CTS or the new A4....S4 would be IDEAL tho

I look at it like this, acura wants to be put in the same class ass lexus and mercedes and their prices agree, so why not just get a lexus, bmw or mercedes. For the price ur gonna pay for that, u can get a 645 bmw coupe easy. And that would b wAy flyer

Yea, they led the way for performance luxury starting with the 1st Legend back in '86 but Lexus stole that shine in '90 with the introduction of the ES250 and the LS400.....been runnin strong ever since.

Acura started getting the formula right back in '00 with the introduction of the MDX and has been producing some pretty nice cars ever since.

But they are trying....and this latest TL is the next step up for them.

Thats wuts up though.

NAY!

If you want good AWD, get a 2009 WRX.

265 HP, 240ft lb of torque...turbo charged...upgrades to transmission, suspension, turbo, and engine from 08 to 09 are considered STAGE 2 to STAGE 4 upgrades.

Fuck Acura. I went to them before I got my WRX.....they are faggots. And they will charge you well over $100/hr for labor ($125 at the Acura dealer I use to go to with my Acura 2.2CL).

The 09 WRX kills every Acura ever made (minues the NSX or Honda Type R which is Japans version of the NSX).

lol @ WRX..
of course a rally car owns an acura sedan.
but
the EVO owns the WRX.
for consecutive years.. in multiple tests with many magazines...
but they are both ugly for the price tag.
most dubrx drivers are nerds

@Grapes....yezzir that GTR is a fuckin BEAST....I have only seen one on the road so far....Unbeleivable!


@I AM.......I see you like the Subie which is all good......but as Grapes said.....the Subie is a rally inspired car and the TL is nothing of the sort even with AWD.....so yea...the Subaru better win.

Its key competitors are the BMW 3series, Lexus GS, and Mercedes C-class.

@moet.......I didnt like the new TSX when I first seen it........I thought big ass fender flares with the small rims looked hideous.

But then I seen one sittin on 20s(? on the size...all I seen was rim and a strip of tire)......rims matched the paint.

That changed my perception.

@Coop.....That muthafukka was sweet....and lets hope by summer all goes well.
