Which TL do you have?
SInce we have so many different experiences on this board, I think it would be interesting to know which year and configuration you have on your TL. I am mostly interested in how many board readers have 2004 vs 2005 models.

The Navigation System with the voice commands adds a whole other level to the Acura TL. Yes, it is more or less just a toy, but it really is nice to have and can become very useful.
To those who are borderline on getting the nav or not... Unless you're really bad at technology and have no patients to learn, rarely travel, or are much more attracted to the TL's performance potential, get the Navigation if you can spare the couple extra thousand (although dealers typically will give you a better deal on a non-navi TL). It's worth it if you ask me...

6 Speed Percentage Surprising
WOW. I can't believe that 33% of the responders so far have the 6 Speed MT. I read somewhere that total TL 6MT sales were only about 10%. Forum members are obviously more "into" their cars and the TL's performance / sportiness so maybe that's the reason. The AT is still a nice ride but nothing matches the thrill of hearing the TL growl and feeling the accelleration under your control as you glide through the gears from a stop light.
The availability of the 6MT is the only reason we started looking at the TL in the first place and why we bought two!
The 6MT TL rocks!

Interesting
Interesting stats so far. After 254 votes, all configurations are similar in representation in 2005 versus 2004, except the Navi/Auto which has about twice as many people in 2005 than 2004.
One assumption from this data is that the TL became more popular in 2005 with the type of people that frequent this forum. As it became more popular, more people prefer the Navi/Auto combination!?!?!?!?!
