Not in love with the new TL any longer, think the TSX looks better!
I do,... now that I've gotten over the TL.
I still have my 03 TL-S, and will hold onto it a bit longer, but the TSX temps me. I dream of a turbo TSX.
But, now that I'm seeing both the new TL and TSX on the road quite often, I now think the TSX has it over the TL in the looks dept. I think the detailing is something--perfect touches of crome (not too much), very clean lines, a design that will age very gracefully. Overall pretty elegant and not too sporty. The TL just seems too busy to me, inside and out. The more I see the TSX, the more I like it, can't say the same for the TL.
I loved the TL when I first saw that demo model in Seattle over the summer, but it doesn't do it for me any longer. I know I'm in the minority, but I just love the look of my 03 TL-S (sorry Larchmont!). But, I'll be ready to buy when they tweak the TSX in the middle of its current iteration!

The TL has the nicest interior features I have seen yet, I mean its just so classy and full no space gone to waste. That Bluetooth Technology is very nice to. But the LEDs seem alittle to fake for me. Other than that the car fits perfectly in my book, Heck I would love to drive an everyday car with 270hp and sporty refinment with the brembos and the 6speed tranny.

I am in love with my TSX too! I think it has to be the most beautiful Honda/Acura sedan ever!!! Just the right proportions, poise and grace. Very European styling. Just the right size. It is going to look fresh many years from now.
On the other hand, the TL may not age as well. I really love that car but I have to admit that the more I look at it, the more I love my TSX :-) Having said that, I must add that the TL interior is nicer though... There is a TL in the same parking lot at work - it's a champagne color one - maybe it's just the color, but it does not have the same head-turning factor as my TSX!

Hey -- Remember, I picked that TL-S over everything else out there at the time, and I still would.
About Lycos' "conversion" from the TL: This is kind of like if Gore announced next month that he's not for Dean after all. Back in ancient history, when we were only spying on the "new TL," Lycos was one of our top spies -- found the TL's at the Seattle show, took pics, posted them here for us, etc. -- and he was all agog over the car, as were most people.
And now he's back to the TSX. Cool.
