Please, no Type-S talk in this thread (there are other threads for that version).

 

I wonder if those numbers include destination fees. Also surprising that it's more expensive than the rdx

 

It does not include destination, which is $1,025.

Thanks for sharing. i am confused about one thing. Why Starting at? There is not much to add when you buy an Acura. You cannot mix and match.

 

The TLX starts at that price, and then you can tack on the Tech or Aspec or Advance packages. We might consider those to be trim levels, but they seem to consider it as packages.

 

A while back, I "built online" a 2020 TLX Tech/SH-AWD . It came out to $42,100 . So, 2021 is within $1000-$2000 of out-going 2020 model (just like my dealer said it would be when asked 2 months ago).

Looks like 2021 RDX starts at $38,200.

 

I wonder how the base model is going to stack up against the Accord Touring. That car is priced just under the base TLX, but comes equipped with things that you'd have to step up to the Advance package to get, such as a HUD, cooled seats, heated rear seats, rain-sensing wipers, etc., let alone features that aren't even available on the base model TLX like blind spot monitoring, parking sensors, foglights, navigation, leather seats, etc.. It's going to be real interesting in a couple of years once the 11G Accord is expected to arrive...

 

Includes Packages (Trim-Levels) and Feature Matrix

Thanks to Fiatlux for finding it for me.

 

So 2021 aspec is $1450 more than the 2020

 

Not bad....wifey is waiting on the version we cant mention in this thread.

 

so what is this version that we cant mention?

 

Curious to see and drive the car in person. Im considering ct5-v as well

 

interesting, the ct5 w the v6 is my 2nd choice, but i really want the acura. I just hate the trim level on the Acura. The caddy is easy to customize w any feature and engine choice. Price point is very similar.

 

Hard pass, overpriced for what it is. From the C&D article:

Acura is charging a lot more for the new version of its TLX sedan, as the sports sedan's starting price jumps $4500 over its predecessor. The base 2021 Acura TLX 2.0T starts at $38,525 and ranges up to nearly $50,000 when fully loaded, reflecting its extra power, features, and more stylish looks compared with the previous TLX. Acura isn't providing official pricing yet for the performance-oriented TLX Type S, which won't go on sale until next year, but claims it will start in the low-$50,000 range. That model has a 355-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 and standard SH-AWD.

Acura, thank you for making a long time loyal customer's decision so much easier

 

Only thing holding me back with the ct5v is my 17k overmileage, off which acura will shoulder 13k, if i stick with them

 

i currently have a caddy ats premium w the v6, it's a love hate relationship lol. I've had 4 acuras in the past, they're fun to drive and more reliable. Trading my caddy for a 4 cylinder seems like a step down, i need to see the final stats for the new model.

 

Thats what I dont like about cars and actually what I do like about Acura. You add something here and now it add on another package. I just priced it and picked the Platinum package - 55k. I'm not seeing where the difference besides the massage. I don't see rear cooled and heated seats

So that means I won't see you around the 2nd gen TLX sub-forum anymore right?

What dont you like about it? I just got an xt6 as a replacement for our mdx, and i am loving it. Sure there's a few things i wish it had that was available on the mdx, but overall, i love it. Couldnt wait for the 2021 mdx so i tried a different brand.

 

the ride is very harsh and firm. I've also had a number of issues w rattles. my dad has a ct6 and its very nice, just too big for my taste. I'm really undecided but like to see how the new acura turbo 4 compare to the previous v6.

 

Surprised that the ride is harsh and firm considering that cadis are known for their plush ride. Even the xt6 is miles ahead of the mdx in terms of ride and comfort, and i had the hybrid mdx with the adaptive suspension

 

Not since now that I know that you would miss me.

 

i came very close to trading it in for a 2019 tlx until i saw the pictures of the new model. Really cant wait to see the reviews of the new turbo 4. I think the advance package is reasonably priced.

 

 

Not since the Caddy’s of the early-2000s. Since then they been going for a “sport luxury” image as well to try and combat the likes of the Germans. Failing, but trying.

Just curious, why the XT6 over the Aviator? Seems the Aviator just has so much more going for it. I used to be a GM guy ... I like the styling of the XT6 but when compared to the Aviator it was a head scratcher how bad Cadillac dropped the ball on the XT6 in comparison. I haven’t looked that deeply into pricing and what optioning it out does to the price tho. That, and watching YouTube videos about them is different than comparing them in person.

 

Incentives and very low mf ( 0.40%). Plus i like the look of the xt6 more. Although the interior of the aviator is much nicer. But yeah, mostly its the price... im leasing a 65k vehicle for $565 (7.25% tax) with just 1st month due at signing

 

I did calculations for a lease on a tlx aspec shawd, and with just 1st month due, im estimating $600 pmt with mf of 2.5% and residual of 60%. This is with 3k off msrp, which is shooting for the stars. I mean, damn, that's one expensive car

 

True.

Just like Toyota/Lexus, it seemed to me that (traditionally and obviously) Honda holds-back features on Honda models, to (keep prices down) and up-sell Acuras.

Back in 2014 (like MDX) you got "Warnings" (blind-spot, forward crash, etc.) , but anything that actually "took control" was reserved for Advance (along with the usual high-end reserved features). Problem was (IIRC) the last step-up to Advance was almost $10k extra.

However, now-days, a lot of that has been deemed "Safety" (rightfully so, as in "not crashing" ) and has filtered-down ... not only to lower trim Acuras, but Hondas as well. So, it seems they are still trying to find a way to justify the Advance model .

You end-up with some strange feature/trim level items ....like the mentioned HUD being only on 2021-TLX 2.0T Advance ... but it is on a Honda. Personally, I think most of this will be resolved in 2023 TLX models.

 

Trust me once the car release I won't be on here as much so no I wont, whether I decide to get it or not. I'm sure you and others wont get the car but stick around complaining and repeating the same thing

 

I take no pleasure in bashing Acura and raining on the parade of those who like this car and I am extremely disappointed, as I had wanted to stick with Acura and I had really high hopes for this car. I am still interested in the finished product just because I have waited this long but it looks like I will have no reason to hang around soon after it drops. But you'll be stuck with me until then so hang in there

 

COME ON ACURA! How is power folding mirrors an advance option????

 

For real.

But since I'm not really interested in A-Spec ... even I'm not spending $5000 for the Folding-Mirrors and HUD. I guess that just makes the Audi-Q5-e all the more special.

 

I can't believe anyone is surprised by this with Acura's history. You can have sporty, you can have convenience/luxury, but you can never have both.

 

Yeah but no rain sensors for the tech package? Seriously? Thats a pretty small thing to include, considering its on the previous tech packages. What year is this?

 

Tech, A-Spec, or Type-S. Major fail.

 

Probably because they couldn't get them right so they just gave up ha ha

*I have no personal experience with them but have seen some complaints.

 

But seriously, they worked fine on our 2014-MDX Tech/SH-AWD.
However, IIRC ... the back-one was still just manually operated.

 

This is definitely more expensive than I hoped, but we have to remember this is also a big car that's effectively replacing both the 1G TLX and RLX. I view Cadillac's CT5 as the closest match. From that Acura presentation to dealers that's been posted elsewhere, we know a more compact sedan is coming soon and will have a Type-S variant. That should start much lower than the new TLX, and it will probably match the 3 Series for size, i.e., slightly larger than the 2G TSX but smaller than the current Accord.
