Agree. I wish the 10-speed had made it into the 2019 TLX, but no doubt, the 2018+ TLX is a step up (albeit a baby step up) for Acura.

Size is also just right. I loved my RLX Sport Hybrid, but the TLX is just the right size for my driving style. I know I spend time dinging the tranny, but the TLX is a solid car other than that, and the tranny is light years ahead of the 2015-17 units. The head unit is on fire (that's "good") compared to the older head units.

I do hope a type S comes, with more power, and perhaps a manual option.
