Well I'm not lucky enough to have someone purchase presents for me, but I did buy myself a 06 TL...not as a Christmas present, but a present for what I've accomplished.

For her Birthday.......

What didn't me TL get would be an easier question.....

Race pedals, TL-S sides and rears, DEG, the big ass service manual from Helm, the "tools" they speak of in the manual for removing door panels and plastic rivits, more carbon fiber (shifter/front & rear console), all season floor mats (ok, I bought those as soon as I took delivery).........and a new set of carpeted mats for the summer months (got the black for my Quartz interior).

For her Birthday she'll get the Aspec kit (Front, Sides, Rear and trunk spoiler)

I'm considering those for my summer tires (also consider the Pirelli's). How do they sound? any minuses that you can think of?

Only had them for a day, about 50 miles. I can confirm that the ride is a little better and I think the steering feel is a little lighter. As for the sound, I don't think they are any noiser then the EL42s.
