I just drove the car yesterday. I have a '98 Integra GSR that was getting worked on so they gave me a '03 TL to drive. When I came back to get my car they had an '04 in the show room and one ready to drive.

This car is the most solid Acura I have ever driven, (I have driven them all)! It handles very well and the pick up is fantastic. I loved the feel of the car and the interior is roomy. The sound system is killer, the phone part was pretty cool. The shifting for the "autostick" was so smooth and quiet that I forgot which gear I was in. I had to look at the tach to check. Even at 100 mph in 3rd or 4th gear it was quiet(btw, it got to 100 quick!) I love this car so much I am actually thinking about selling my teg to get it.

The car costs only $33K, considering the '03 type-s was $31K, that aint bad.

If you can get to an acura dealer, this is a must drive!!!!

 

Thanks for the feedback. I am sure the 04 TL is be as popular as the 2nd general TL.

 

I can adree with him on this one. Our dealership just got 6 new ones and there are sweet. The 18 inch wheel upgrade looks very nice. Only things that bother me are the engine plastic covering just about everything and the split at the rear bumper. Everything else is pretty cool.

 

we had 10 delivered to my dealership. they are a blast to drive and look so good! especially the one on the showroom floor; it immediatly recieved 18" rims, OEM underbody kit, and rear spoiler. it is hard to think of a reasonably priced car that gives you all of this.

 

Hey guys,
I was at a Holiday Inn in Louisville, KY last night (10/4) and saw this in the parking lot. I'm assuming it's the new TL. All the Acura symbols were covered and no where did it have a model name.








I'm not an Acura driver myself, but I thought someone here might be interested.

 

Good work THGL, that's the new TL alright. It looks nice. Too bad my wife won't let me trade mine in for it....because I rarely drive mine. Only have 35K miles and it is 4 1/2 years old.

 

me and tim will be posting pictures in the next couple days of a 04 tl that I'm currently adding Acura accessory's to. It has the 18' wheel upgrade, complete body kit, spoiler, back up sensor kit, shift knob, moonroof visor, side mouldings, wheel locks. it' almost done cept for the side skirts and the rear spoiler.

 

hey everyone,

my local dealer got a bunch of new TL's in.
i sat in one for a few minutes. my intial impressions
are that Acura has a sure hit on its hands. a very nice
car inside and out. when i get a chance to test drive one
later in the week i will post an opinion.:thumbup:

 

Anyone know if its difficult to get 6-speeds?

 

I haven't seen one yet, my guess is it's not out yet. You guys should know they plan on making something called a summer tire edition which has brembo front calipers and rotors. My guess is that this will have the 6spd.
