TL still going strong

Saw this article. Very nice to know the TL still appeals to the masses.

The new Accord is actually quite nice in person.

Kind of funny that Camry & Accord are not on the list when their sales are clearly top notched .... I did see a 08 Accord in person in front of my local Costco entrance & IMHO it's pretty bland from the outside .... was in a bit rush so didn't try to peek inside ...

TL is da bomb though still going strong after all these years ....

thats awesome! That's proof that the TL is hotter than Bentleys, Phantoms, Maseratis, Maybachs, and etc



I have to admit that the 08 Accord is pretty nice in person btw haha

what the helll..I just read this..
"Though the TL typically does not deliver the excitement or prestige of competing European sedans, it counters with exceptional value and above-average durability and reliability."

Excitement, definitely delivers enough excitement for me to have a smile ear to ear, and if it's competing with "a prestigious european sedan", doesnt that mean, theyre both on the same level? I know I know..BMW is "A BMW"(having that name), but exceptional value makes it sound cheap

Isn't that one of the reasons you bought the TL? Would you have liked to pay a few grand more

There is something wrong with the article. Did ANYONE notice that they price the TL at 43k to 48k? I would lilke to sell mine right now if anyone matches 85% of that price.


DUH ... I think the article is written for Canadian readers

Hahah, no no, but you know what I mean? They make it sound like it's the bitch car out of all the competitors.

I used to have a 2003 E39 530i and the handling was amazing but the power wasn't rele that . TL still gives me more of a satisfaction oh and yeah reliabilty wise..BMW was in the shop 1/4 months

I was only teasing

Skyline meet on 10/28 may be too early for foliage viewing this year. It is over 70 degrees in NYC today. I was up in the Catskills last week, and only 10% of the leaves changed color
