Tl-s Stolen!!!!!
Okay so my WDP TL-S was stolen about a month ago now and I just got the check from the insurance company and I'm looking for some suggestions on a new ride. I loved my TL-S and was considering getting another one. As for the 3G tl I personal think the 2G looks better.

Buy a used Civic. Bank the remainder and use it plus the Civic trade as a DP on the 4G TL.

actually.. i really think the 2G TL-S is a bit better looking car (reminds me a the Legend)
but... tranny = pos... interior = garbage (compared to 3G), slower then 3G, worse navi, etc..etcc
but.. huge price dif. 03 TL-S Navi = $20k 07-08TL-S Navi $32k+

6G TLX-S
Buy the 3G TL-S now. Then swap to a 4G TL-S which will be introduced at the mid-model-cycle change in 2011.

Kilos of yayo in
If you do like the look of 2nd Gen (I know what you mean I do to) get a 02 TL-S with low mileage. Just make sure its not salvaged and if it has really low miles you will be covered until at least 2009 for a free tranny! Some 03s are not covered if you really want an 03 I would make sure its covered by the warranty just in case.

i dont think our TL is any better.. our tranny are a POS. and my shocks are blown at 50k running on stock springs. seems like my TL tranny is slipping ATM. having trouble shifting from 3rd to 4th gear. and I dont think i am under warranty for the new tranny.

plus, i dont push my car beyond 60%...call me old, but i've done my fair share of speedin/racing in my younger years. now, i just like to relax and take my time
