Just got my new TL last friday. I absolutely love the car. I was a Honda EX owner prior. The quality of the sterio is excellent, and the XP feature is well worth the $10 per month. I make a lot of my own cd's for recording and the quality is excellent, at times its hard to distinguish between the regular cd's and the DVD-A's. I also have the navigation. My only 2 complaints as of now are, there is a rattle somewhere in the sun roof area, and the brushed aluminum strip that runs from the dash to the console on the drivers side has small dents in it. They started to appear the same day I got the car. There are now about 4 small dents, I think they are do to the seat belt. When you go to put your seat belt on if you pull the belt over quickly and it accidently comes in contact with the brushed alluminum it puts a dent in it, at this rate that entire strip will be riddled with dents within a short period. Has anybody experienced this yet?

Sounds like we have to be extra careful with our seatbelts and ask our passengers to be careful too. That's the problem with real aluminum trim, I guess the other choice could have been painted plastic in which case there would be scratches too.
