its ok to me....dont like the interior or wheels. and its too high. idk doesnt look good to me. they tried to do to much. and didnt pull off a nice sporty look IMO.

riced out tailights FTL

Edit: after seeing all the pics all i can say i like is the gauges, peadals, exhaust TIPS, backup camera, and of corse the 3.5 liter

I like the taillights on the non Type S betr than the Type S ones... Also I liked the gauges the current ones have betr. But 286 hp + 6-speed sounds nice. If I won the lottery getn one of those would be my 1st stop. Then maybe a Ridgeline for my truck.

Not too sure if I like it. I think the wheels are fugly. They'll be the first thing to go. I would have to see them on the road to form a good opinion of them.

All this is covered extremely extensively on the TL boards.

I know we coupe drivers have nothing new in the near or distant horizon to gawk at, but the 07 Tl and new Type S are all over the TL forum.

meh, too many doors. Audi>TL in the 4 door category. The only thing that looks good is the quad exhaust. Everything else is bland. And Acura is capped with those numbers, any higher and they're smokin crack.

wish the base TL had the same tail lights as the Type-S.

ah well, seats, steering wheel, and gauges look better in my opinion

I like it, but not enough done performance wise. I mean i wish it was a little closer to 300hp so that it pushes it up a level. They should push it past the G35 and the 330 and closer to the IS350. Then you have some serious kick ass Acuraness happening.

Can I have that 3.5L engine in my car with a super charger and the quad exhaust please.........and make that to go

IMHO, our cars are still unique to all the other acura's...and there's a million reasons why.

And OH! Acura's type-S is gettin kinda ricey Looks like a cross between Mercedes and Nissan.

There's a 19 page thread on the TL in the automotive news section:

Some of you guys need to get out of the 2G CL forum more often, right Lord Helmet ??
