This TL probably the last Acura product unless they put their act together and make a solid car. My TL is basically done and sit in the garage doing nothing. Haven't touch it for months.
I got my Lexus SC300 with a few mods as my beat up daily driving car (eventhough the turbo kit that make 375hp at the rear wheel at 8psi is still on my list
Im taking over my brother's Celica, all modded up already and continue the project. A Turbo will be on the way soon.
So what do you guy think? Should I turbo up the SC300 or the Celica? I am doing one but not both. Price for either are similar at around 4 grands. Both of the car are Stickshift.

Loving my 08 TLS!
He looks ugly when he sits in his TL. But I tell him he looks even uglier in his Lex, but he doesn't think so.

At least I look ugly and seat comfortable in my seat than
your PHAT a$$ that sunk the seat and have all the metal wires poke your behind .... Maybe that's the reason why Park Ave refuse to replace the seat :p

Don't hate it that much. Just don't know what to do with it anymore. So I rather let it goes or just let it sits there and loose value every day.
Problems include bad passenger seat switch (took 2 dealers and 2 weeks to have it fixed), bad driver door switch. Rotor resurfaced twice and the second time they charged me $$$ and even charged me the extra day rental (That i didn't even notice. Better check your invoice before you leave the dealer). Wind noise like no tomorrow. Frozen Navigation Unit. And a full load of other minor problems.

sounds like you have more issues with the dealer(s) than the car. I mean, i hate when I have problems with my Infiniti and people tell me "mine is perfect." But seroiusly, my TL is pretty much perfect. its a 2000 and has no problems at all...just minor things like the sunroof not closing, but was fixed in less than a minute becuase a screw was loose. Its really quiet, really smooth, and it looks like a nice car. Why not just sell the "beat up" lexus...i would assume that car has more squeaks and rattles...i know someone who had an LS400 that used to just go FULL throttle at red lights and stop signs, and the car used to overheat constantly even though the dealer charged thousands to "fix" it.

Either way it's about time you do something with that car.
BTW, if you wanna give me your ct exhausts as a birthday present, I'll be more than happy to get it off your TL.
you got such a nice setup on your TL....
