Thanks Steven

 

Last night ill ever have to look at these

 

I know you've been waiting a long time for the dash replacement. Let me know how it goes!

 

hopefully i'll have the car back saturday

 

Sorry if I missed it or I forgot...how much it end up running you? How's your daughter, buddy?

 

Got a total price from them a few days ago but then got a call Monday saying since the dealerships labor rate was a little cheaper than originally thought, I'd be $250 + tax for my part.

Daughters doing great right now, 3 more weeks until surgery though

 

New ride for the next 5 days

 

Best color

 

No black roof no care

 

No me gusta baby ass wheels.

 

Wheels will be fine for a few days

 

Enjoy the 4G!

 

I plan to for a few days

They are calling for 4-6 inches of snow tomorrow night so ill get to put it in action quickly

 

Is it a Tech with SH-AWD?

 

At least they gave you the right color.

 

Steven, no

 

I told Tyler I'd fall in love if this interior was in the 04-08's

 

The 4G is really growing on me. Especially pairing the 6-speed with the SH-AWD.

The cockpit of the 4G (wheel and gages) is so sexy, but I still thing our center stack in the 3G is nicer. I hate the bulging buttons and recessed screen.

 

It's funny because Acura went to a non-Touch Screen, but it seems like everyone is staying with the Touch Screen.

 

I think they did that for reliability...buttons generally give less issues than touch screen 5 years later, no?

Dan...my buddy got a 5.0. I got that new car itch too. Honestly, that cockpit is just a new version of what we have. I wouldn't trade just for that.

So 270 bucks for a new dash. That isn't too bad, actually.
Are they giving you any guarantee that it won't happen again?

 

No guarantee but If it does in 6-7 years, I highly doubt it'll be in my possession then

 

Dan that interior is just drool worthy !!!

I had some kinda of a pull at the Acura dealership in STL and they had loaned me a SHAWD 6MT Tech and was that fun to drive or what !!! It puts you in the seat pretty well

I hated how the exterior looks but the interior is just "state of the art"....every button seemed to be in the right place. I didnt have to go looking for a button....it felt very inviting and very welcoming....

when giving the car back, the guy asked me, so when are you buying the new model....and my reply was "the minute the change the damn exterior".....everything other than the beak in the front and the smile on the trunk, was SEXY about that car...

 

Was hoping the car would be ready today but dealer said maybe Tuesday. Damn

 

I prefer the non touch. I still have to take my eyes off the road to use the navi in my car. Its always refreshing when im in a loaner where i can feel what im doing

 

I agree, but it depends how the system is set up. My parents just had a G37 sedan as a loaner and the screen was in a position to have a usable touch-interface, but the ergonomics of the menus and buttons made the system as a whole confusing and 'awkward'.

 

G04TL if you read this, I tried replying to your PM but you need to clean out the inbox.

 

Nice sight

Came out to $290 with tax

Now to redo the seats

 

 

 

 

they almost peeled most of the plasti dip off the interior radio trim which i kind of figured would happen so now i'll hit them up this weekend

 

Looks perfect, Dan!

 

i'll be good for another 8 years now

 

LOL.....hopefully!

 

already read from someone that had the dash replaced almost 3 years ago that they could see the outlines over the pass side air bag already

 

Well, at least you had it done at the dealership. They now have record of this. Hopefully they will cover it.

 

well i hope thats normal and not a sign that the dash is going to crack lol. My current TL and previous TL both showed the outline...

 

my dash was showing it also before it started cracking but as far as i know this was a problem for the 04-05 and just a few 06 Tl's

 

In the proper light, I can see the outline on my Type S too.

 

i wonder as the 07-08's come up on that 6-7 year mark, that we might start seeing failure in them also
