Favorite 4G TL Feature

For me it's the BT streaming with song title/artist actually showing up on the NAV screen and the ability to change tracks using steering wheel controls
In my previous cars I had Blackberry gateway connected to AUX to get the similar result, but changing tracks had to be done on the phone itself.

What's your favorite feature?

I wen from a 09 FWD tech to a 12 AWD tech advance and I'm still exploring some of the new tech on the car like what you mentioned but I'm really loving the 6 speed and AWD system.

1. A standard iPod adapter!
2. Being able to keep the key in my pocket
3. A bit nitpicky, but it's really nice to have the trunk/gas release on the door instead of having to bend down and under the steering wheel and side of the seat.

I apologize if this has already been done but I tried searching and couldn't find what I was looking for.

In the 3G section, there was an old thread about "cool new features" that may, or may not be in the manual.
My wife just got a 4G and I wanted to see if there was anything "cool" I could discover on her's, but there's no thread for it.
Has this been done?
A link would be great...lol
Thanks in advance

Blind Spot Warning and Song by Voice. Nothing like setting your A/C temp, having the HDD search for a specific album to play, being notified someone is in your blind spot all while your eyes never leave the road and your hands never leave the steering wheel while merging onto the interstate!!!!

Is there a way to upgrade the software on an older model to add these features?

I'm really surprise Acura hasn't provided software updates, etc. that provide additional capabilities.

I REALLY hate how you have to navigate through song lists from A-Z using the knob.
