Do any TL-S owners oggle other TL-S's ?

Ive had my TL-S for about 3 months now. I love it. Today I saw 3 other TL-S's...A black one which I admired zooming down the highway---a red one--my first red one ever. And my favorite of all---a dirty carbon bronze TL-S. I was watching this car for about 5 miles. I love that color ! I think I am a little obsessed---I mean I OWN the fricken car and I still look at the car on the road. Crazy---anyone else ?

Type S TL's are rare here in KC. I'm always amazed to see another one on the streets. Yesterday, I saw another ASM Type S. It was totally unmodded and was being driven by an old woman. The only thing I could think of is, why does she need a Type S????

Same here! Saw a really old lady driving a KBP TL-S with Aspec. I was jealous. She even had those Star Wars visors

I take it one step further and check to see if it had a navi.
I must say, 99% of the TL's I've checked are auto and non-navi.

makes me feel special that I have a base TL with a six speed and navi.

I still do it to this day, even though my baby is gone. I just haven't seen a highly modded TL-S at all here in GA.

^+1. When I see any TL on the road, I check it out like a good looking woman walking by on a summer day. Like others have said, I'm sometimes surprised by who the driver is. A few weeks ago I spotted a silver base TL with the complete Aspec package, including badge, driven by a guy whose hair was just as silver as his car!

I always gawk like crazy if I see another Type S driving. I will give a quick look at even regular TL's just not as much because you see them so often. The other day when driving some young guy driving a black base TL was looking hard at my NBP S 6mt. It was funny to watch but I appreciated it and gave him a nod afterwards.

Don't hate, it'll benefit a fortunate buyer (and hopefully enthusiast) when she decides to sell it.

I admit I do. I even go a bit further by trying to start or follow other TL's to form a pack. The largest line formed out of complete randomness was 4. Most of the time chicks are driving and don't really give two shitz.

Yes ^^^^^ Lot's of women drive TL's and I've even seen women driving TL-S's as well. I see enough TL-S's here in NYC and some are nice but the best looking TL's I've seen in NYC were modified TL's.

I always do double-triple looks at other type-s's in town. The majority of the time the drivers are older gentleman. I spot a few modded ones but nothing extreme like some of the ones on this forum.

I always double-take to make sure it's really a Type-S (or at least a well done fake). But every time I see a Type-S in KBP, I want to ask them if they want to trade.

I dont see many type S's in Loveland and boulder co but every time i pass one i check to see if it is. I saw one driving on the diagonal highway in boulder...he is a member here. only reason i know that is is he had a AZ sticker in the window...lol

I check them out, it is the only way to see what your car looks like driving down the road. I know it is a matter of preference, but when it comes to TL's I really don't care whether it is auto or manual, I had no desire to buy a fwd manual. My previous car was a Legacy GT, when I see those in lots I look to see if it is manual, that is a car that really benefits from the manual.
