Smile Pics of '07 TL & S A-Spec from Miami Auto Show!

Went to South Florida Auto Show yesterday in Miami Beach - It was a lot of fun!

Acura had a really nice set-up! The new '07 TL was "sharp" - I love the new interior color: "Taupe" - very pretty! The White Pearl is a beautiful color!

Hope you enjoy these pics of the '07 TL and TL-S (A-Spec)

I want the type S headlights....

Also, now seeing the tail lights, I think I look the solid red from the 04-06s.

Yea, the foglights look awesome! Really adds more character and makes the TL look even more sharp! I like the new wheels too! I think Acura really has something going on - Personally, I think it was the most exciting car on the showroom floor!

The Type-S is hot, hot, hot!! The way the lights were bouncing off the TL made it look even more beautiful and really showed the lines and brilliant color! I was also impressed how nice the pics came out!

I'm glad you enjoyed them!

oh hell ya, that rear on the S looks damn good. I wonder if it'll fit hahahaha. the S tails used ot be my fav thing, but seeing that rear. o man!

the front lip is whatevers, its a bit odd. it goes up so high on the fender part of the bumper. i dont know how to describe it. and not too sure about the chrome grill on the S either.

thanks for the pics OP. much appreciated

Is it just me, or Acura messed up on the chrome finishes. I mean I think they should be on the regular TL rather than the S because the S is more sport oriented while the TL is more luxury oriented. I think gunmetal should've been used on the S and chrome on the TL. What do you guys think? I also prefer the old taillights rather than the new standard ones, the S looks good. I don't like the new stock wheels, they look like the ones on my 1990 Accord!! For some reason Acura's stock wheels are always ugly, they always use that plain, grayish look rather than polished, slighly chrome like Infinity or even Honda.

Wow, I didn't notice that about the chrome grille until you said it. Now, looking at the pictures again, you are right.

Yes. I think the "matte" finish would look better on the "S" and the shiny "chrome" on the regular TL would be more fitting. I agree!

I think that, maybe because the "S" has the sportier "chrome" wheels - that could be the reason for the chrome grille?

Very good observation! Thanks for pointing that out!

Oh, I forgot to mention that the TL and the TL-S also had the "Rearview Camera"

(You can't really see it in the picture, because it is right above the license plate - you have to look really close, and you can feel it with your hand.)

Good luck, I called my dealership and they said with installation it would be 2200$ for both headlights because the wiring and inverters are completely different.

Type-S A-Spec.....mmmmmm........ Looks good.....

.....but it costs as much or more than my RL cost me (TL-S is $39k base + probable dealer cost for A-Spec of $5-6k)...... ......ewwwww....

.....but those parts will be available soon on eBay.....mmmmmmm......

Take it from me, the Taupe interior color looks good. I love it in the RL and it should look just as good in the TL.

My dealer quoted me $38700 INCLUDING destination for the TL-S. He said he would even give me 500 off as repeat customer. Normal people will pay MSRP!

Those are some nice pics. The ASPEC Type S is sick! I prefer the ASPEC wheels on this car than the 17"s

I like the rear and love the quad tips. Like others said, I too think the front looks a little too cluttered. And what happened to those license plate holes? Are they now coming pre-drilled from the factory? (Were the holes pre-drilled on the 04-06 model TL's?)

The way their showing the Type S with the Aspec kit is the way they should sell it to begin with. The Aspec shouldn't be optional and it shouldn't cost anymore to have it on.

Also does the TL badge look bigger on both cars?

The Taupe interior looks very stunning. Not feeling the Type S front w/ the Aspec. It looks somewhat awkward.

Thanks for the pictures mang!

Good point; this is something that any organization would need to "keep" the interest of the consumer(s). I do like the A-Spec rear but thumbsdown on the front. When will the taillights be available?

The taupe looks good. The TL-S looks much better with the ASPEC than stock.

Oh yea. I guess they forgot to pop-in the license plate hole covers!

The only thing I care to swap out from the non-navi 06 TL is the instrument panel and the non-navi area of the base 07 TL which looks alot better (including the stock stereo capable of playing mp3s). I don't care for anything else on the base 07 TL's

On the other hand, the Aspec Type S is a beauty!

I'm not sure where you see "unmatching" bumpers?
