Goodbye TL-S Hello 335xi

After being very disappointed in my Acura TL type S that I purchased. I decided to upgrade and buy a BMW instead and I have to say that I am very satisfied with my new car.

P.S. I hope to still be apart of the Acura family.

^ he meant 335i or xi FTW...not which do you have...

why did the Type S disappoint you? ...my goal is to never own a bmw...i would feel too unoriginal...just my opinion...plus 99% of the people who drive one around here are either a huge douche bag or a woman...

...i'll be getting an S5..........or maybe RS5...

Good luck. I am also seriously considering a 335i or 135i coupe.

I am just worried about the 29.2 lag program BMW just put in them.

Also the constant fuel pump problems with the N54 engine.

Like I said "GOOD LUCK"

Man, ain't that the truth?!

Very nice car you have there, jacey. I just couldn't get used to the red instrumentation lighting. That's probably why I never opted to trade-in for the Type-S or any German cars.

No offense or anything and this is just MY OPINION. But the interior on that car that you just paid about 20k (possibly) more then my TLS is complete shit. It looks so dull and boring. The interior on the TL(S) just looks so polished and sporty lookin with a nice luxury style to it. The gagues have that deep sporty look which the bmw doesn't, as well as the cecnter console. Of course your twin turbo 300hp would beat my car in a race. But having a car look sexy both inside and out is a big part of owning a nice car too. Again I hope you dont take offense to this its just my personal opinion.

P.S. I love the m3's and m5's although I hate the way the back of the new m3 looks
