I was at my dealer yesterday getting my first oil change done on the TSX. I asked my salesman if they had a TL available to drive, he tossed me the keys to his DGP/Parchment demo. I'm not gonna get off on a rant here...but SWEET car. He got in long enough to demo the XM and the supplied DVD-A and sent me on my way alone, the only way to test drive. It's an awesome car, the thing that keeps coming to mind is the sound of the engine, it's intoxicating. This thing sounds bad ass. I found myself turning an excellent sound system off so I could hear the car. This car is very TSX like, only a little more refined. The only thing I didn't like was in SS it shifts to 2nd automatically. I prefer being the one to tell it when to shift. In a nutshell, I honestly prefer my TSX because it's a little sportier IMHO. If I wanted the cush and could afford the payment the TL would be my car. Did I mention this thing sounds SWEET.

 

I totally agree. The one thing that sticks out in my mind clearly after the 2 weeks since I test drove it is the engine sound. Hmmmm.....heaven.
