We got one in today!
I work at a dealership in Woodbridge, VA and we got a tech in today. I like the car a lot. The grille and rear will have to grow on me, but as for the interior...perfect. Love everything about it. It's much quieter, better ride, better handling, power is much better. Keyless entry is great, they finally brought it to another model besides the RL.
Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure.

WOW! Thank you! You really couldn't wait, could you, taking all the great pics while it's still on the truck! :-) Thank you for doing that!
BTW, wouldn't the car look great with some chrome trim along the skirt of the body (I don't know what you call that area), just like the Lexus GS does? Well, perhaps that will make it look too much like the Lexus GS and some people will say that it has too much chrome already....

Oh also, which is the best body color so far?

I like how wide those exhaust tips are. It's something the 3G is missing IMO. If our exhausts were a little wider(not shorter, just wider) they would be perfect... Let's see if we can swap these into the 3g =D

I just wanted to say that the lot he is dropping the car off at is just our employee parking lot, which is why it looks like crap and there are no acuras there.
I saw the silver, black, blue, and grigio. Out of those few I really liked the black, of course. Grigio is a nice color, but it looks better on the RDX.

Yeah I took some with my iPhone and they look good on there, but not so nice on the computer.
I knew it was supposed to come in today so I brought my camera to work. ; )

Is that just the angle or is the new remote control thinner than our current 3G's?
It looks more compact!

I was at the dealership today morning for an oil change and must say that the car looks great in person.
And for some reason the back side looks more compact and well rounded than the 3G.

Forgot to add, from back the TL looks to be smaller than the TSX, which is a bit deceiving. And the decks needs a lip spoiler and the tailpipes on the non SHAWD needs to be changed to the Quad pipes in 3G TL-S and it would really stand out..

Stopped at my local dealership, they just got them in yesterday. Met with the salesman and looked at both the base and tech models. Well, I am still out on the styling in person. With all the banter on the beak grille, I agree it is not attractive at all. The rear looks decent enough. The interior dash reminds me of the RDX, busy looking but laid out well and useful. The Nav is of course top notch. The base looks really stripped compared to the tech model. Handsome, but not as clean as the 3G. I saw the base prices as posted and am waiting for lease rates on the SAWD, which comes in late next month. The colors are nice, but many seem to look the same, without one really standing out.

The pattern/texture of the aluminum interior trim (near the Start/Stop switch) looks the same or very similar to what is on the 3G TL.

Thanx for the pics man, great job!- I went to the dealership today and drove around the lot in one- and the salesman got on it in the back- great pickup, but the 3rd Gen S sounds much better, and seems alot quicker- I am sure in the next couple of days all you guys will go check one out- I did not like the rims at all- and still not a fan of the overall styling of the car. The engine is another thing, completely covered like ours- different strut bar as well- and no cover on the block- sweet looking Black center piece though- be sure to check that out.
The sticker for the Tech package (NAV and Keyless, and lip spoiler) was 39,895 and the base was 35, 695-

I went to Hendrick Acura in Charlotte today and had a very informative salesman take me on a tour of the car. The rear camera is built into the rear spoiler, and the interior blows away our cars. The screen is like a HD tv. It is so big and clear. The 40g harddrive is sick and how it has everything stored in memory. The tech package is the only way to go. My next car is a 2009 TL. Just need a couple years to have a preowned come up. The interior is really where it's at. The outside will grow on me.
