Just picked up a 2010 TL G4 last week w/ 22K miles on it. No Tech. package, just a base model, but a sweet car and virtually new. I'll look forward to your input as I search the forum for nuggets. I've tracked down a couple Dyno shops here in Kentucky. As it's my wife's car, the goal is to get it to 300+HP. I suspect that won't be hard, but I want to find a Dyno shop that knows what they're doing. Any YaHoo can tune a car for 300HP at full throttle / 6500 RPM... but this is a daily driver, stop & go, stuck in traffic at 95 degrees etc. So that's the shop I'm looking to find.
If you have posted something, I may reach out to you directly if you allow that and ask a couple questions. Great to be a part of this group and looking forward to being part of the brotherhood1

Hi guys, here's a pic of my 2009 TL taken today. Just got the oem 19s put on last week. They were damaged when purchased, so I had them finished in gloss black. Other mods done to the car are: full vinyl wrap (hood, roof and trunk are wrapped matte black), lowered with teins, crossed drilled rotors all around and tinted tail lights. Looking forward to chatting with everyone on this form, as I sure do enjoy owning an Acura...

A little belated post but better late than never. I sold my '17 Accord V6 Touring last summer at the height of the frenzy for basically what I paid for it 5 years prior. Figured what better way to ride out this inflationary cycle than with another TL after my 3G served me so well for 8 years. I came across a privately (female) owned 2010 Tech with 95k on the clock. Replaced the tires, brakes and front axles (bit of a surprise) off the bat and she's been good to go ever since. For 10k its hard to do better than a 4G. Id like to grab an A-Spec SH-AWD down the road but for what dealers are asking now I'll gladly keep this for the forseeable future.

I'm the car's 2nd owner, it's the first Acura I've owned and I love it. Before, I had a 2007 Saab 9-3 SC with a MT and it was awesome, but after driving the TL the only thing I miss was the MT and turbo; the TL is much more comfortable and powerful! Pic is from a recent snowstorm we had lol.

It was a complete fluke as I didn't even know that the 4th gen TL came in manual until it rolled into my shop. I had only ever seen autos for sale as I have been keeping an eye out for either an Accord or 3rd gen TL V6 manual but never really found much that I wanted.
So the car rolled into my shop last week and it's now sitting in my driveway and I've been having a good time with it for the past few days.
I got a pretty good deal for mine since it's overdue for the timing belt.
