Hey guys, I wanted to say that the original post was to give a compliment to the TSX and how well it handels. Remember, it was a rental while my T was getting the blood changed out and tires rotated. I looked @ a TSX in the showroom with the fake wood like the TL and a diff color leather and it was nicer. Everyone gets so personal. I found it funny of the guy who said I have a 4th grade ed. I actualy have a masters. I usually have a secratary write my letters so sorry for the poor spelling and I had no idea your tires were as bad as the TL's stock EL42's. So chill out...The TSX is asnice as a four banger as I have ever driven. Just missing a few things I use everyday. sorry for the uproar!

nice compliment this is:

"The inside is so cheap and the care makes me feel like a am driving a Civic",

and,

"Maybe it is because the same turn i take a 20MPH inthe TSX I take at 35 in the TL? I am glad i spentthe extra...night and day!"

Those are great compliments. Did you earn your masters in how to dig a deeper grave?

I've never given neg rep (well only to fdl ) and I didn't give that NooB neg rep either. But I wouldn't blame someone for giving him neg rep. Not because he critisized the TSX, but because the uninformed way he went about doing so. He DESERVED neg rep, period.

I think this is a case of "the jealous car syndrome" or aka the new Acura RL and Infiniti G35.
I guess some of the TL owners are getting insecure about their current TL, so some of them are bashing others to make themselves feel better and "superior". I know alot of TL owners are happy with their TL's and they respect the TSX, but there are some bad apples in the bunch sometimes.

I am very happy with my TSX, and I am very proud to own one. If I owned a TL, I would be happy to own a TL, and I would be very proud as well. I wouldn't even care about others cars because I would be feel secure about my decision with either the TSX or TL. I know alot of you (both TSX and TL) feel secure and proud about you're decisions too, because theres more than a car when a car is an Acura.

I personally won't sweat it. If I want to drive the TL, I'll just ask my sister. She just got the '05

Big deal. There are silly posts like that on all boards. A few TL drivers need to make themselves feel better for spending $6,000, just like a few posters here bash the TL in order to make themselves feel better abou the purchase. They're both great cars, and I'd just leave it at that.

Go visit the TL site. You see one smart, informed post after another (like here). But there is always going to be somebody who has to make himself feel better by passing other vehicles.

THe guy who originally posted it was something of a superficial @#$%head. Amazing that someone that superficial would be able to have the discernment to buy an Acura of any type....

I have to say it's a nice car since i get to drive it while my TSX is in the shop!
Hahaha what da y'all got to say now?
My dealer is Acura Palatine if you'd like to visit sometimes
A little input though.
1) Yes, a lot more power on TL is always a welcome
2) I really didn't like the torque steer on TL at all
3) For that money i'd get 3 series

I know - I guess what hacked me was that he stood out in the crowd because of his tackyness.
