Turned in TLX today
I returned my TLX today and picked up my A5 sportback. This forum was helpful when I got my car. It was time for a change though. I will keep following Acura and see what the future holds.

Nice car!!! Love the A5 sportback. What package and options did you get? And I agree with everyone, let us know your thoughts on it in comparison to the TLX. TLX is probably gonna pale in comparison but still worth hearing 
There's a reason why all the reviewers give glowing reviews for the A5

includes virtual cockpit and bang and olfusen
I got the highest package for 360 camera
I didn’t add anything else I think the wheels and seats are just fine
I have to do a lot do studying in the manual to set up features
Answer to Acura review, at the time I felt I wanted to upgrade from Honda and Toyota and Acura was a bargain. TLX was comfortable and had good acceleration but there was a little big of a lag even in sport mode. Things I didn’t like is that the car was oil hungry and also really didn’t like the interface.
I wanted a turbo engine in next car and all wheel drive. Acura new diamond grill is a major turn off.

There are four lights!
Loving the A5 Sportback. When my TLX lease is done, I'm looking to go in the direction of a sportback. Increased cargo capacity and drives like a sedan... what's not to like? I could even do something like the A4 Allroad which pretty much drives like the A4 sedan despite a slightly higher ground clearance. I would love to see a TLX sportback for the next gen seeing that the new Accord kind of looks like one already.

^^ Acura's NAV system is century behind Audi 
Nice A5 SB. Audi seems to carry the torche these days.

BMW has variations by drive mode & speedo/tach can be reconfigured.

Was your TLX 3.5 SH-AWD? How is the acceleration and AWD in 2.0T compared to the one in Acura? How is the transmission? I have heard that 2.0T has a bit of a lag of the line? Thanks for sharing!
