I just bought the base and if you like the exterior there is really no hang ups on this car imo!

If you have had a previous 3G TL the only downfall to this car is the bluetooth setup. Acura really took a step backward in that area. It takes an extra step or two to make a call and I also used to be able to hit the phone button and say redial in the 3G and that doesn't work now either.

I owned 5 different 3G TL cars and the 09 AWD is a very well built car, far better than most of my 3G TLs and this is a year one TL! As mentioedn the Bluetooth is crap compared to 3G and the NAV while it looks great the interface menus are not as nice as the 3G and the damn NAV nags you too much for instructions, the 3G you coudl limit the number of voice reminders you got, the 4G you can nto and it nags lever 1/4 - /12 mile usually 3 times before a given direction, the 3G if you set minimum prompts you got one voice notification and that was it. This NAV is a bit naggy, but it works greta and looks awesome. The car is very solid and rides awesome! By far better ride than my 08 Type-S, although I still prefer the look of my 08 Type-S over the 4G.

Well, bought mine 2 weeks ago and put over 1000 km on it, so far no concern beyond blowing speed limits away.

The car seems very well made and the AWD gives you a great feeling of confidence as the car stay glued to the road.

I wasn't a Bluetooth user b4 but I recognize the phone system isn't that user-friendly, it could be improved.

My 2 cents,
