new TL impressions

After checking out the new TL minisite on acura.com I am happy that I bought the TSX.
No regrets other than the fact that navi is avail on new TL and not on TSX up here in Canada.
I think the exterior design is not as good as the TSX, despite being so similar. The interior and 80% of the features are the same. Both are superbly executed vehicles. It just comes down to the preference of engine IMHO.
I don't think the new TL is going to feel or look that much bigger than the TSX either. My friend in Chicago has seen both cars side-by-side and says that to the naked eye they look very close in size.

I think the new TL is going to sell like hot-cakes!

from the pictures, the interior looks alittle better. IMHO
the steering wheel has got to go.
exterior, i kinda like the tl more bc its more performance orientated. i like that side chiseled line.

The A-Spec is supposed to have a different steering wheel. My guess is a three-spoke sportier version

The TL looks really masculine. TSX could be a girl's car just as well as a guy's, IMO.

I hope so....maybe I'll trade my TSX for A-spec TL...i hate the steering wheel...i think it kills the whole interior design.
