Who else has a Honda/Acura family of cars?!!
Got my 2012 TL a few weeks ago and enjoy owning a Acura as my 'daily driver'. My other car is an 02 AP1 S2000 which I absolutely love driving but not practical as a daily (for me). I moved from a 06 E90 BMW 325i to the TL and now am a loyal Honda/Acura car owner. How else has a family of honda/acura's?

+1 on the BMW... The cheap window regulators went out on my X5. 1st one happened when rolling the driver window up... all I heard was POP!! and then the sound of window slid down into the door. $500 to fix. Less than a year went by then the same thing happened on the passenger side. Another $500. Found a specialty BMW shop at that point and not even a month after the 2nd one went out the passenger rear did the same thing, but this time it was when I shut the door... POP!!! ~ slide. $300 to fix. And as they were testing out the windows after they fixed the 3rd one, they called and said the 4th one went out. That was the last straw. Got rid of that nightmare for the Fit. In all fairness, the thing drove like a tank through snow and stuck to the ground like glue... when I wasn't having problems.

Currently have a 04 MDX and a 012 TL SH-AWD. Traded in a 2000 Accord V6 for the TL.
Also had a 87 Accord for 4 years. So for much of the past 22 years have been a Honda owner, much like many of you.

The first car I bought was a 1987 Honda Accord. Since that time I have owned Hondas until Jan of 2011 when we bought a TSX Wagon. Now we own the wagon, a 2012 TL and the daughter has a 2007 Element.

In addition to my 2012 TL, we have a 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour, 2003 Honda Pilot and 1 1999 Honda CRV. Although I started out a Nissan fan (first car was a 1981 Nissan Maxima) I found my way to Honda/Acura.

Yep, all within 6 months, car is just over 4 yrs old and out of warranty. 2 window regulartors broke, a power door lock broke, and a power seat would recline forcing me to drive uncomfortably. I fixed the windows and door but the seat was it- that drove me to myTL. great to hear all these loyal honda/acura owners
#16
wow my mom's 325 had problem with window regulators too! Left and right passenger side broke in 4 months, extended warranty covered them but still we never used rear windows, couldn't figure out how they broke so easily.
This TL is my first Honda/Acura product in the family, approaching 6k miles

You reminded me, I had a red 1988 Honda Prelude. Loved the car. Was the first and last Honda product I ever owned. My father had a Legend, though. Loved that car also. Acura blew it big time when they retired that name.

I should have also mentioned that I previously owned a 2005 TL and a 2006 RL.

I 've driven an Acura since I got a new 1992 Legend. Before that I had an Accord. The rest of my cars have been TLs. My wife has had an Integra, a CL, two MDXs, and currently has a Honda Odyssey and CRV. The best thing is none have spent hardly any time in the shop.

I was just out of college in 87 and my only requirement for a car was to have "hidden" head lights. Not much to choose from, main choices were Accord and Integra. I am glad I didn't start with Acura because it would have set a high bar for a first car. I always wanted a Prelude, but when I thought I could afford one, Honda gave them pumpkin eye taillights.

We had an 87 Accord and an 01 Ody. The Ody is being replace by a TL. It arrived today at the dealer and we went to look at it. Great car. It is getting spalsh guards and side mouldings and my wife picks it up next week. After driving a station wagon then then a van she is VERY excited.
When we sold the Ody we had two parites outbiding eachother in the driveway for it. We got more than we were asking! Fantastic.

My family recently converted to Honda's! My parents own: 2003 Honda Accord EX (Sedan), 2003 Honda Civic DX (Sedan), 2009 Honda Accord EX-L (Sedan). Before these, they drove Chevy's.
I decided to go with the 2012 Acura TL (Base). My previous (first) car was a Jeep.
