4 door and looks better. I had a two
car before but prefer a 4 door. I do
like the rear end of the CL-S better.

At the Brooklyn meet I got to see some TL's up close and they were nice especially all the custom ones. I am 25 and have 4-Door hysteria. When I bought my Type-S I did not even think to look at the TL. When I have kids I'll think four door. For now I'll take the two door rocket w/ perforated leather . I HATE driving around more than one other person cuz I hate being a taxi so for me there are lots of reasons why the CLS was a better fit. Lastly, when I see a TL I think it's just another TL. When I see a type-s I think 'Oh shit that's fast' but that is just my opinion no offense.

To reply to Gregs question I will be 39 in Feb Iam single no kids.I have elderly mother that I carry to the doctors quite often.I also haul around my 2yr old Boxer dog. I find that the 4DR car in more practical for the family & if you have to haul something.

Cool

OK... where should I start...
1. I needed the 4 door for the baby... not so easy to put the baby in the car seat in a 2-door.
2. As the only car in the family I wanted the practicality of the 4-door.
3. If it would've been my second car I still wouldn've looked at the CL until they make a convertible.
4. Yes, as mentioned before, I also think that the TL looks sharper.
5. Again, as mentined before, Accord Coupe does look better.
6. I wanted a car that wasn't a cop magnet... not a 2-door.
7. Wife doesn't like 2-doors... harder to get to the back seat...
8. If I think of something else I'll add it...

------------------
Just my 2 cents...

I was going to get the TL untill I saw the inside of a TypeS. Well that and the fact I just turn 22 and I am not ready for a 4 door yet. I think my wife is going to get a TL though. One thing I wish they would have done with the TL is make the back end taller.

I like my cars with as many doors as possible. So does my kid.

I told the dealer "gimme a car with a lotta power and a lotta doors."

I read in Motor Trend that the TL has twice as many doors as a CL. So I bought one!
