This is almost comical to me. I'm finally open to parting with my 07 TL-S, and cannot find a single 2024 Type-S anywhere near me. I'm going to reach out to two dealerships in my area later this morning, but I have a feeling that I'll be told they have no idea when they'll get any, if ever. Even the used 2023s are a hike from me (50+ miles).

Yeah this is actually making current TLX Type-S market price hold abit because the 2024s are non existent almost lol. few 2023s that are new, a couple used ones in my area though. A Blue 2023 TLX-S at Radley Acura, White 2023 TLX Type-S at Rosenthal Acura, and that's it from what I see in my area.

I stumbled upon a 2024 within an hour of me this morning, and am waiting for their internet sales department to get back to me. I'm tentatively scheduled to go look at it at 2pm, but really want to make sure that there is no absurd markup before I make the drive. Honestly, I'll be a bit devastated if I don't like how the car feels. My 07 is just so comfortable inside to me.

Coming from an '15 TLX and an '05 TL before that, the 2G TLX is very different, ergonomically. The dash and windshield feel much further away than its predecessors, making me wonder how moving back to a touchscreen would work. The front end feels like it's 10 ft long, so it's hard to judge distance parking.

That said, the car looks awesomely aggressive. Hope it works out!

This. Switching from my Honda daily to my TLX-S after awhile showed me just how big or rather how long the front-end of the Type-S feels. But I never can stop looking back at it when I park it. But these days I drive my Honda way more than my S

My 07 is cozy inside also, but make no mistake, your wrists will not miss driving the heavy front end steering wheel lol.

Yeah, gotta watch out for those parking curbs with that long front end. After a few weeks, it became a non issue for me.

Took longer than I had hoped, but I traded in my 07 TL-S for the 2024 Type-S. It was hard to part with it, and I almost kept it. This one had a number of upgrades, but I got it for the sticker price, no market fee or any of that nonsense.

So far, I’m loving how the car feels and drives.

Aweaome, and welcome to the club. There is literally no reason for market adjustments. Did the dealer have 2023s still on the lot?

No reason for it, yet two other dealers within 3 hours of me had $3k+ markups on their 2024s. They had no other TLX Type-S's on the lot, but had numerous Integra Type-S's. Said they were having trouble selling them due to the pricing, and being so close to the TLX, people were willing to wait for the TLX instead. This was the closest dealer to me that had a new Type-S on the lot regardless of year. They just seem to be non-existent where I live, and this was the first one I had ever seen in person.

Congrats! That blue is so sharp, I'm sure @KrylonBlue will be descending onto this thread soon, he can just sense when there's a Blue Type-S posted up hahaha

Enjoy the power, handling and amazing road presence that TLX brings. Expect to get lots of compliments on it too!

My first Acura was a 2005 blue TL. If I get another TLX, I'll go back to that color...

As cars have gotten even more monochrome (with an occasional red or maroon thrown in) it splashes more than ever.
