Goodbye Acura

Hey guys! After 6 years of owning my 02 TLS, I will be finally saying goodbye. I will be joining the Lexus family. Just ordered the 07 ES350 with navi. I have been visiting this site since April 2001 when the site was solely delicated to the TL (www.acura-tl.com). Over these years, I have met many members on the board and made many friendships: Alfav6, Mr. Hyde, Blackshadow, Joey, Bigmonkey just to name a few. However, most of them have moved on to other things. I just want to say that the TLS had been a great car, only had on tranny replacement, but never let me stranded anywhere. It will be missed, but I will be enjoying my new ride. The ES will be arriving in 2 weeks.

Congrats on the new car

I test drove it and I thought it was a nice ride!


Make sure you find the TL-S a good home.

Congrats on the new car Charlie, I was gonna get the IS myself, but I test drove it and felt it was too small and had no power, it looks nice though and lots of features.
