My step-dad had a '84 533i that he brought over from England (was grey-market from Germany). Maroon and beige ... I loved that car. It was so much fun to drive and nicer than anything else I had been in at the time.

He sold it with about 250k miles on it about 15 years ago so he drove the hell out of it ... The only thing I really recall ever going wrong was the electrics ... When you put on the turn signal all the gauges (including the speedo) would swing back and forth based on the timing of the blinker ...

It's why I'm considering getting one even though I'm an Audi whore.

 

04 TL with all the typical bolt-ons. Here's a VERY old pic. I've done the heads (custom), tails (custom), rear sidemarkers, and exhaust since this was taken. Back on stock wheels, too.

i wish we could see who put what in the poll... just cuz i can't seem to find the other other... lol

 

Congrats on your purchase! ...Black Pearl Emblems & F-Sport Wheels. The wheels come with the F-Sport Package.

 

05 6MT just paid it off

 

Been about a year since I lost the 06 TL. Got broadsided then pushed into oncoming lane where it met a truck head-on. Gave it's life for me.... Still miss that car.

Driving isn't really the word for manuevering this. More like piloting a river barge....

 

I'm a little envious because I really want TPMS and 2006 was the year they introduced it.

 

 

Poll results crack me up. There is like a 60/40 split in pictures, with the majority being non-Acura's... meanwhile, the pool shows 60% Acura owners.

at the people coming out of the woodwork and voting to bump up stats

BTW, some nice rides you guys have here

 

I was thinking the same thing

 

i didnt know this many people lurked in car talk

 

Lots of nice cars posted. I must admit, however, that the above is my favourite. Arguably not the best one here (no offense to the poster), but I've always loved cars a few years old that are clean, uncluttered, stock, and obviously cared for. Kind of an understated elegance. Simplicity often speaks volumes.

Again, just my personal tastes and not intended to offend those that take their automobiles in a different direction.

The 3G TL is still a high water point for Acura in terms of their styling. It's eight years old (or there about) and doesn't look dated inside or out.

 

I agree. Still looks good.

Heard it's a great improvement over the previous generation which had recirculating-ball steering (I think that's what it was called), and this one has a typical rack & pinion?

After driving my friend's old Suburban, old American driving scenes seem much more believable.

 

Trying to jump into a 2012 Nord Gray Gen Coupe... waiting to see what engines make there way into it. But def getting rid of the rabbit... Aftermarket got totally ...

 

I'm boycotting this thread because of the Subaru snub in the poll list.

 

omg he didn't put Subaru?????

Can't you fix the poll matt? lol

 

Just snapped a couple quickie pics (no glamour shots at all) with cameraphone of the '06 G35 and the '03 Accord...please excuse the dirt!

My dirty girls...

Some Infiniti love (only 35k miles)


The Honda, now over 100k miles

 

I've got odd taste in cars.... still driving my '02 Z28, it's been fun but I'm looking to get into either a smooth V8 cruiser like a GS400 or something smaller, fun and fuel-efficient with a manual like a GS-R. I can't decide.



Ideally I'd want a 3G TL-S 6MT or an '06+ Tacoma... but they're still a little too expensive for my liking. Chances are I'll probably end up with a motorcycle

 

I should have done the same Matt. But I can't help pimping Subaru.

And Terry, my car is stock, except for the K&N air filter. And I love the fact my car is 5 years old, the previous generation, and I get locals asking me if she's brand new.

 

1999 3.2 TL Black on tan, LOVE IT

 

1993 Lexus SC300 w only 145k!

 

welcome to car talk.

 

I voted for Toyota

 

^...

LOL..

 

Terry: my car is all oem!

 

Phee your car looks damn good! That picture makes me miss my 2G TL :/

 

Poll edited to allow for the piqued feelings of slighted Subaru owners.

Damn, look at all those Acura owners. I guess all those jokes about "Bimmerzine" are just jokes! This is DEFINITELY Acurazine.

BTW, who is the other Cadi owner? Delurk!

 

 

Looks great. I saw a Camaro like yours around here with some candy paint job and I guess 26" rims. Thing looked weird, had more ground clearance than newer Toyota Tacome..

 

I had the case of the Mondays when i made the thread. Forgot even Toyota! Thanks bob for the edit!

The cool thing about the list is that there are owners of almost ALL the brands here.

 

Why aren't we seeing more Acura images here though?????

It's okay! We won't make fun of the chrome beak! Show it off guys!

 

I like it already.






Terry

 

I don't see the Lesbians and Maple Syrup option

 

Didnt know what I was doing and shot this pic in VGA mode

 

04 is300 and 08 mdx tech

 

Infiniti typo still hasn't been corrected.

 

My trusty ol' '04 TSX.



157k miles and counting. It's been a really good car.
