Found My Unicorn and Added a 2014 TL SH-AWD 6MT Tech to My Stable!

Just as the thread says.....I found my unicorn!

I took delivery of a 2014 TL SH-AWD 6MT Tech (Silver Moon/Ebony) on 11/18/2013 from Muller's Woodfield Acura in Hoffman Estates, IL.

Muller's Woodfield Acura did a dealer trade with Pauly Acura in Highland Park, IL.

My sales guy (internet sales manager) picked it up with 10 miles on it and drove it back. I took delivery with 38 miles on it.

I did a 3 year @ 15K miles/year lease. Vehicle price was $39,589.71 + TTL + $595 acquisition fee + $350 turn-in fee.

Deal included the $2000 factory to dealer cash, the $750 Acura flex cash (can be used for down payment or capital cost reduction), all-season floor mats for $0, and trunk tray for $0.

Money factor was 0.00085 (2.04%). Residual value was $22,544.55 (51%).

It is now in my stable, along with my 2001 CL Type S with 210,000+ miles.

Some of you may already know me from OdyClub. I'm looking forward to bringing a similar level of information to this forum.

Congrats on getting a new TL, especially the 6MT TL.

Was the 6MT hard to locate, or have you waited for a long time for the 6MT to arrive ?

Thanks!

I just missed getting a CPO 2012 TL SH-AWD 6MT Tech (Bellanova White Pearl/Ebony) that was purchased by TOMMYTOM83, as I discussed in this thread.

So, I waited until the 2014 6MTs started to arrive. There were not many available in the area and surrounding states with my color combo preferences 1) Silver Moon/Ebony and 2) Bellanova White Pearl/Ebony)....only 3 total. It took awhile.

Congrats. Probably the last acura you'll be able to get with a true manual trans.

Welcome to a fellow OdyClubber. I like having basically the same tech layout in the TL and Ody. I was blown away by the 650w system in the Ody, until I heard the ELS system in the TL. Both are loud but quality is much better in the TL.

Too bad the DVD-Audio format has such a small music library, but it's nice being able to play DVD-A's in both the TL and Odyssey (if you have DVD in the Ody).
