Hello everyone.

I'm not new to the Honda family but this is the first Acura I've ever owned. I owned a Grand Cherokee before this car (it was hit from behind and had frame damage, so it had to go). I have to say that this by far is the best vehicle you can buy dollar-for-dollar. The reliability of Acura, the power of the 3.2, the features of the TL, combined with the comfort and versatility of the car make it an outstanding value.

I just wanted to say hi, I like the forums (and wow, the search actually works here unlike other forums) and I'm soaking in as much info I can about the new ride.

2005 TL / Nighthawk Black / 5AT / No Navi

 

Congrats on your purchase .. hope you have good luck with it .. as you noted there's a huge amount of valuable info on here .. glad to hear you're taking advantage!

 

Congratulations on the purchase.

We have had our '04 TL for a while now, and "Knocks on real Wood", no problems whatsoever. (I tend to ignore the come and go little squeeks and chatters of the car whenever they appears... which is very seldom).

A pair of snows and the baby has been set to go.. and go .. and go...


Enjoy the car and enjoy the forum

TL42 - Gord

 

Congrats and welcome to the forums.

 

Congrdulations ; ) since smilies dont seem to be working at the momment

 

spell check dosent seem to work either

 

Howdy!

 

Welcom to the forum ..... as Brewmaster said "a lotta info here regarding 3G TL". Congrats on your purchase and enjoy the car and most of all, enjoy driving it.

 

It's a great car all right - we've had our 05 Silver non-navi for a couple of months now and really like it. I was never inspired to do anything to any previous Honda, but have enjoyed doing the Zaino thing and putting in the LED lights, etc.

Just wished we'd noticed that the back seats didn't fold before we bought it!

I can see trading it in the second year of the next generation, as I'm sure it will continue to be improved.

This is a great forum - the information is greatly appreciated!

 

Congrats on the new TL! I just picked mine up a couple of weeks ago myself. BTW, great combo you got there.

Congrats on the new ride. Welcome to the '05 NBP crowd.

 

We have had ours only a few weeks now. Also a non-navi.

Smooth and powerful and very assured steering. You will love it and all of the money you saved over a comparible BMW, if such a thing exists!

 

Thanks everyone!

I finally got my phone (v710, Verizon) to pair with the car so I'm enjoying the HFL feature of the TL. It snowed here, so I've also experienced the VSA as well.

I'm waiting for my all-weather floor mats and full nose-mask to arrive. Other than that, I'm just putting a boatload of miles on it because I can't seem to stop driving it!

And I thought my 2001 V6 Accord was nice (owned before my Grand Cherokee)...

I told my wife that once I got back into the Acura/Honda family I wasn't going to leave again. They keep making vehicles like this one and it'll be easy to stay. Of course now she wants one...

 

Welcome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Congratulations on the purchase.
are you planning on any mods ?
