That short commercial did absolutely nothing to make me want to see the TLX. It was just a blob under a sheet and the sound of a guy accelerating.

VR1

Racing driver? Hemlet? Guy accelerating?

It shows Acura at least cares about the "sport" part in the TLX. Not to mention it atleast sounds decent, unlike 99% of Acuras current range.

waaasobe

ya man weird shit, i just drove back up to school and gave it a thorough work through and nothing. it must have just been me.

all i want is turbos.... is that asking too much ?

VR1

I actually prefer N/A over Turbo. Of course if there is a 350hp turbo engine I won't be complaining. Some people said the video sounded like the car had a turbo, but I'm not buying it.

iCrap

The TLX NEEDS a turbo (or v6) and awd. The 200hp N/A 4banger just isn't gonna cut it..

We will find out in 3 days. I'm prepared for disappointment.

Now being owned by Fiat really helps.

Mercedes>BMW

NA ftw. That's what the Bmw E39 M5 is and its regarded as the best M5 ever made, no turbos needed to make that 394HP or all that TQ.

waaasobe

id love to own an e39 m5 one day.

VR1

E39 FTW. E60 & E39 were the last real ///M5's.

waaasobe

when i heard about how the new m5 has synthetic v8 sounds pumped into the car i lost faith. lets hope the new m4/m3 are not nearly as 'fake'.

TSXy Luster

Ya know, I see other companies doing cars like these...




and I wonder how fast I can trade in my Acura for that.

If you listen even closer you can also hear that it is RWD too.

i wrote up a whole post about "commercials" and their "sounds"

but deleted it.
VR1 is just young and naive. lol

opboarding

Aww you shouldn't have deleted it.

iCrap

lmao. yeah should not have deleted it.

Mercedes>BMW

E34 M5 and E39 M5 were the last two... E60 is a fat pig and so is the new M5, people say the E60 M5 doesn't feel faster than the E39 M5 because of that weight and the size difference. and that the power band is all at the end... With the E39 M5 you have power everywhere.

A lot of people on the M5board that have E39 M5's were excited for the new M4.

opboarding

Fuck girl scouts. Smaller boxes and they raised their prices. I just ate a box of thin mints like it was nothing. Higher prices I get, inflation and junk. But don't treat me like a chump and also decrease the amount I get.

VR1

I wanna see the post. I know that the sounds in commericals are altered, but dont ruin it for me. Only reason why I'm so excited (or want to be) is I want to stick with the Acura family.. Otherwise BMW is calling my name.

VR1

The FT1 is gorgeous (other then nose). GT4 on the other hand looks even worse then the pre-facelift Gen. coupe.

I lost faith when the said the new M3/M4 won't be N/A..

KillerG

still looks like ass. sloped ass

and anyone who thinks the production model for the toyota ft-1 will look anything remotely like the concept is gonna have a bad time.

TSXy Luster

KillerG has spoken

and not one fuck was given.

for commercials its just pre-recorded looped sounds. lol
might not even be the real engine note loop .

any one ever notice the Merc C250 commercials and how sporty and fast it seems?
*COUGH* bullshit marketing! *COUGH*

iCrap

gg acura... it's already on the site

http://www.acura.com/future/TLX#1

P-AWS AND SH-AWD though.

And 9 speed auto and a 3.5l v6. I am impressed.

ssjoeboe9

dual clutch is cool! Not sure i really agree with the body style.. but who knows what the aftermarket/areo kits will look like.

also SH-AWD!

ssjoeboe9

ok maybe I take it back

This looks kinda cool lol

VR1

Looks a lot better then my TSX imo. Hope it isn't too heavy.

TSXy Luster

20 inch wheels as standard?!?!?!

VR1

I don't see them putting 20's standard. 20's on the highest trim? Yes. On the base 2.4? No.



Didn't see it mentioned anywhere, but the 2.4 on the TLX is the K24Z3 right?

iCrap

They didn't say which engine it is. I assume its the k24z3. disappointing the i4 is not awd... I will never buy another 2wd car so if i end up getting this i'll be going for the v6.

I think the 20's are standard.
