Should I get the 2004 TL

I am very interested, on paper, in the 04 TL. I have not driven one yet but that's my next step. I see all positive press. But I'd like to hear more from you all who may own them. Likes, dislikes. Any concerns given they just substantially changed the model? I often hear to stay away from 1st year models or models they drastically change....Any advice is appreciated. Like I said, on the surface the car looks sweet.

Thumbs up

So far I only have the TL for 6 days. LIKES EVERYTHING, DISLIKES NOTHING so far.
Remember I only have the car for 6 DAYS.

I've had mine for 2 months with zero problems. I still look for errands to run and other excuses to drive it, and catch myself taking the long way and grinning behind the wheel. There are plenty of other models that will paste the same smile to your face, be sure to shop and drive the competition also.

I picked up my Anthracite/Camel/Navi yesterday and it’s an amazing car. I owned two CLs prior to this TL and this is far superior in my opinion. This opinion is in regards to fit, finish, technology, looks, and its raw performance, the only comparative factor from the competition, ranks among the best in its class. Those with more expensive vehicles will find the Navi system the best on the market in terms of technology and the way it’s integrated into the center stack. It's just an incredible car. You’ll not regret it for a minute.

Should you get a 2004 Acura TL?

If you have to ask--who knows.
I should get the 2004 TL, so I did.

Question:
1). Do you have the ITCH?
2). Do you have the SCRATCH?

Would I buy it again (same year--groundhog day style) ?
Yes--No regrets to date.

I wonder sometimes, if some of these threads are Honda-America employees doing MARKET RESEARCH.

Just my opinion.
