If you test drove the TL-S

Whats everyone's take on the smaller tinted side view mirrors?

Seemed like i had a bigger blind spot ?

Thoughts?

They're actually smaller. I like the old ones.

I checked out a non-Nav white TL-S this morning. The front grill doesn't look too bad in person. However the rear Acura logo is too big. My opinion...

it's just NICE!

So are you going to de-badge the rear?

The wheel was cool.

I just didn't like the mirrors. I felt blind.

What about the head rests?

I've just test driven a Silver non-Nav TL-S @ Acura of Boston. They have both TL-S and the regular TL.

I'd give the Framingham dealership a thumbs down since they wouldn't even put the car in the showroom until tomorrow. I guess you could imagine that they wouldn't let me test driving it (even I ask a couple of times.)

Sucks. My dealer got two type-s and the one was still wrapped up and he called me and when I showed up they had just finish unpacking the car and gave it a nice wash for me. The car had .3 miles on it when i got in it. It was a virgin

.... well for at least 30 minutes heheehe

Probably not since the two holes are wider than the old one. I'll just take the time to get use to the look.

BTW, the TL-S wheels look better than the ones on the regular TL.
