New to the forum!

Whats up? Im new to the forum I own a 2007 Acura TL Type S automatic, one of my dream cars, and a 2005 Honda Accord EX-L Sedan AT. Looking to keep the TL-S for the most part stock minus very few mods. Happy to join this forum!

Welcome to the forum. I would try and keep the TL-S as long as possible in original condition because it will be a collector car like the RSX Type-S and Type-R down the road. The good (or bad) thing about the RLX is we have no choice to keep them original because there is almost zero aftermarket support for anything other than adding Carplay or tires/rims.

Welcome to AZ! I moved your post to the 3G TL forum. UA6 FTW! The 3G TL is one of the best Acuras, ever.

^This certainly caught my interest. I'm kinda keeping my fingers crossed. I own a 07 TLS 5 AT NBP (177,200) with the black/gray interior. Daily driver. Limited mods. Straight pipe, windows tinted

I also bought a 08 TLS 6 MT with currently 118,300. Same NBP with back/gray interior. The mindset is...the toy..

I've done nothing to the 6MT., well excuse me I had the front grill wrapped (blacked out) windows tinted. I go back and forth daily about going with Tein Flex Z's on her, but right now level.

I was going through the same dilemma with Tein for years. At this point, I will keep it stock, I’ll just fix a few dings.
Jeff since you have both, AT and MT, is there some personality differences between them, or they are about the same.

Lastly, welcome to the forum and congratulations Josh.,

I have them both as well, the Auto just pull less hard than MT version other than that its identical car. Well my KBP had Tein Street Advance and I switch to BC coil and few support mods so the handling in corner is hand down better than Auto. I can def tell the LSD in the MT works during high speed corner.
