2004 TL w/ 6MT & Navi
I'm 37 (almost 38). I would say that the avg age of the posters in this forum is probably around 31. But, I would say that the avg age of a TL owner is more like 40.

Just got a SSM/Quartz/auto/navi a couple of weeks ago, and I'm 50. I have had a few Hondas in the past but this time I was looking for something a little sportier, and upscale, but still needed 4 doors and room for adults in the back.
The TL fit the bill and I'll give it a 10 out of 10 for fun.

I think because of the average age of TL owners not to many after market parts to spice up/ or cheapen down (whatever your opinion) is limited. If you notice the RSX which has been out like 3-4 years had aftermarket items after the first year. It is really hard to find certain things I want for my TL unless I want it custom made... Give the 3d Gen TL its due.. I mean it is a AWESOME CAR!

Hello:
Now I'm mad, until I saw 65 Dr. Bill in St. Louis I thought I was the oldest
TL owner with "mods".
So, OK Bill are you going to get the S/C?
Comptech said it would be done sometime this summer.
I just turned 56 and I love my TL.. It's the best car I have ever owned.
I hope you enjoy your's as well...

I'm new to the forum and am enjoying it very much.

I was 30 when I bought mine. My first car was a Ford Tempo and second car was a Ford Taurus. I am glad I bought the TL and didn't buy the next Ford in line, the Crown Victoria.

Call it an 8 - not quite as flickable as the wife's S2000 nor can it keep up with my Honda bike. Better in every way to the '99 it replaced.
