32 here.
Funny, everytime I see another TL I naturally look to see whose driving and its usually a woman, mostly middle-aged (50's)... depressing.

24 and I'm curious about how some of you can be fresh out of high school and payin for a TL too. What bank gives a 25K loan to a teenager? I got laid off about three months after we bought the car but we're gonna hang on to it, point being, I make high school money right now (school again) and my wife is the only reason we can keep it. Before this car the lowest mileage I ever had on a car was 108k, and this is my ninth car. I am the P.O.S MASTER!
1987 Mazda B2200 116k
1987 Dodge Shadow 118k
1987 Olds Cutlass 108k (I loved this one, T-Tops,chrome
)
1988 Acura Legend 222k
1986 Acura Legend 226k
1994 Acura Integra RS 150k
1995 Honda Prelude 110k (Nice one too)
1991 Honda Accord 150k (Still goin)
1999 Acura TL-P 68k
Im sure some of you older guys can top that P.O.S. list, but all those crappers just make me love the TL that much more.

I am 27.
Living in Jersey City, I was very proud to be an owner of ACURA TL TYPE S. I thought I was some hotshot. I have seen only a handful of Acuras here and there in my area.
I went to Queens NY the other day. I parked in a parking lot where lots of young kids hang out. I was easily the oldest one there. Everyone was 17 or 18 or younger, everyone was driving at least a TLS and really suped up, and most were driving BMW, MB, Lexus or other various sports car.
I felt real bad looking at all these young kids driving better wheels than me. The only thing that made me feel a little better was that I am pretty sure I am the only one there that BOUGHT his own car. Everyone was probably money from parents or some thing like that.
Still... I wish I had a TLS when I was 17. Oh well, I guess 27 is not too late. Maybe I will join our fellow Acura owners up top and get a porsche when I am 37

Lucky you, but I'll be struggling to pay for mine on my own, unless my mom hits the lotto and wants to pay it off for me :o
