I was the missing link!

Wish I took a pic.

I was driving up to a stop light of a 3 lane street. On the left was a dark gray 2nd Gen TL, on the right was the dark gray 4G TL. So naturally, I stopped my carbon gray pearl 3G TL right in the middle.

I wonder if the people behind me even cared... maybe they'll post a pic of us on here.

That would've been a nice pic from the rear and front.

If there wasn't a 1st gen then it wasn't a complete alignment of the stars!

I completed a 3-of-a-kind of 3G's in the same lane the other day and kind of smiled. Dumb, I know. But I think you're 3 generations across beats my 3-of-a-kind in a column, doesn't it?

Well, to Acura enthusiasts, yes, but to oridinary people around, no.

I assume most people would think "oh, 3 Acuras" if they saw 3 generations of the TL line up or don't care at all, whereas they'd be more aware of three of the same cars, because you don't need to be a enthusiast to spot three of the same cars.

I was part of a 4 car 3G lineup once on the high way, it was funny and pretty rare to see i guess. it was one KBP type-s, SSM,my AM and a WDP. And it was funny cuz we all lined up like fighter airplanes, absolutly no one could pass us for like 5 exits!



it was fucking badazz

Man... when another NBP TL pulled right up next to me at a red light, he decided to race me when it turned green. I just wanted to cruise along side with him but I guess he wanted to show off his exhaust or something

I'm sure the other TL owners did not notice, nor did the drivers behind you.
