lol you guys are hilarious. Im keeping the TL until the wheels fall off and in that event id likely get new wheels

on the other note I think you guys were confused as to what i was saying. Of course this car will not increase in value, that is silly, what I meant was "lease equity" meaning that the buyout at the end of the lease is significantly lower than the actual market value, therefore you can just sell the car for market value, pay off the remaining buyout and keep the difference.

Now to get equity out of it, you have to keep the car in pristine shape, which as most of you know i keep my stuff super duper clean so thats not a problem, I also dont log a massive amount of miles either so id likely be bringing it back under the allotted mileage.

you may think I'm just blowing smoke out my ass but from my experience so far is that these are pretty rare, at least in Canada and none of the dealers can even get them right now, The wait time is like 28 weeks or some bullshit. I got lucky, no doubt about it and they had to search high and low just to get me in one.

The hatch is a hot unit and its in demand big time right now.

we will see in a cpl years I guess and see where the market value is at that time. The type r is coming out and will be here in Canada very soon but thats not a car thats going to be attainable to the avg person nor will there be an abundance of them produced so its not like that is going to kill the value of the sport hatch that I have.

 

Damn, that looks awesome!

 

 

Why park so far from Honda guy? Is the owner a Douche?

J/K!

TL looks Great! Bet your glad to have it out!

 

thanks tim!

 

Looking good man

 

Great choice for a daily driver! I love those new hatches. They're so smooth and comfortable and quick. And that motor has a kind of purr to it that you would not expect out of a civic, or any stock 4-cyl for that matter. They did a great job with that car, the colors and all the black accents - she's a head-turner. Not as much as your TL of course, but still a great looking all-stock car.

Hope your job at Honda is treating you well!

PS. What better day for a thread revival? Happy Easter! lol

 

Looks great!

 

Hey guys whats up? Man its been a while!! Wanted to toss in an update. Hopefully can catch up with some of y'all too !

Traded the Civic in for this back in April and haven't looked back. The car is excellent and its 6 speed





Here are some recent shots of the TL as well from a local car show

 

 

Hey man!

Just wanted something more rugged...more refined...more luxurious...AWD...Plus I'm selling cars at Toyota now and we part own the VW dealer so got a sick deal. The car is great. 1.8T 6MT. I love the wagon look. Gonna put some K02s on it for the winter lol

 

On the one hand it's a wagon so that's super awesome. But on the other hand, it's a VW which is basically an Audi.

So hmm. Enjoy that lifestyle, I guess?

 

Sup bro...

Cool! I love a 6MT turbo and it's a wagon. Good shit...
how's the job? How's the girl?

 

Yea man im loving that wagon life! No kids or anything. We like taking it on long drives and going to cool places and this vehicle takes us there!

Everything is good guys! Gf is doing good lol. My job is good! Slanging Toyota products is nice! Toyota has a ton of nice shit haha. I drive a 18 Camry XSE for a demo right now its pretty sick

How are you guys doing? Wheres jawknee?

 

He's around...
I mean, if you really want a convo it ain't gonna be in your thread, nobody is going to check here. Get your ass in ramblings.

 

Yeah, even the most sensitive of Canucks eventually made it back to 3GR. Quit being a lame.

We promise no one has forgotten about your inability to remove your bumper.

 

and how could they!???????????????

 

yeah stop being a pussy..


how'd i know I'd be mentioned in here...


welcome back :gheyhug:

 

#metoo

 

 

I'm just here to sniff butts

 

does anyone on this forum even have a TL anymore Seems like no one even cared about the TL pics I posted..

Car still works great.. Needs a few little TLC bits here and there.. Mounts would be really nice. Oil pump is weeping...

Its basically maxed out for low , anymore low or poke on the wheels things could be fatal. Fitment is as tight as it can get with these specs..

Heres a pic of the Golf Wagon I took the other day

​​​​​​​

 

What's a Tee El?

 

LOL...
doens't anyone give a fuck about my TL anymore? Here's a pic of my VW.


brother...we all met because we have a common interest but we are all still here because we have become friendly and enjoy each other's daily banter and ribbing...that's why we encouraged you to come by ramblings and chop it up with us again. If it's just about visiting a self serving personal thread for e high fives about how nice our cars are, that gets old eventually. Ask me how I know.

So while we do appreciate that you still care and put effort into it...if you're looking for it, you probably won't get it. I still look twice when I see a clean TL but these days I look harder at the ones that haven't been modified and have been well maintained. If I got another, I'd try and find an aspec set of wheels...spacers and springs and call it a day.

 

 

:bsflag:

 

lol...probably why i dont want one...another money pit!

 

Your TL looks nice!

 

 

Whats up guys?

Update on the TL. First 2 pics are from last year with un-drivable fitment lol. Dumped with 225/40/18 up front and 235/40/18 in the rear.

The remaning pictures are as of today!

Raised it up all around and threw on some meat!

235/40/18 in the front - 245/40/18 in the rear. BFG Sport Comp2 Tires

Car is drivable, drives like a dream now. No axle wobble, no banging the frame around, no tire rub! Lol.
