Only a 1 year love affair!

I had my 3G TL for exactly 12 months. Loved it, but somehow found myself drawn to (Megatron) 4GTL. Whelp, as the title states after 1 year my ABP is gone and Hello Beautiful....
2009 w/TECH. Just got home with her tonight.

Just after the detailing!

..........finally home after a long day!

Congrats man. As I am sure you've realized, the 4G TL is a better car in every way to the 3G. Enjoy

I too moved up from a 3G

Good to see you got the Tech, what are your plans for it?

ThoiBoi yes I did. I first sat in the 2009 TL as a loaner from Bridgewater Acura in Jersey. I hated it and vowed never to own one. Never say never.
Oh yeah, I have no Idea what my new user will be......

Not many plans other than maintenance at this point.
Window tint was done at dealership and is in phenomenal shape.
I will be replacing front rotors and pads as I did my 3G
Transmission fluid check.
Might consider painting grill to match.
I'm eyeing a set of 18" SH-AWD wheels/tires on craigslist.

...oh and I have to replace the driver side door speaker (blown).

If going for the OEM 18", get the 09-11 wheels. I personally like these better than the 12-14. I think there is a set being sold in the black market.

You can change your user name? How

I disagree with the 4G being a better car in *every* way than the 3G, but I am biased.

Yes I'm a 09-11 wheels fan all the way around. Even the base wheels look better in my opinion.

Very excited that Acura Dealer expressed that vehicle was in tremendous shape. I got new transmission fluid work done and immediately felt the difference.
