How old are TL drivers?

I am 38 (36 when I got my 04 TL Navi). Best driving car I have ever had. Annoyances are: screaming into the HF mic to make it work, odd vibrations at times, wore out the factory tires at 25k (earliest I ever had to replace rubber), the fact that the kick-but audio system doesn't play MP3 discs, and finally, no aux in jack for my iPod (or any other outboard device).

I am a 30 year old with a 97' 3.2TL I traded in a 95 Integra for a nicer car I plan to do some modes but not much to the egaine just to the look of the car and keep it clean. When I get some pic's I will post them.

Nice birthday present. When I turned 18 my parents announced that they would pay for college so I didn't have to take a student loan. Enjoy your TL and drive safely.

I'm 57 and i've had my 05 TL for 7 months. The car is great except for one thing ... the seats are not supportive enough. After driving for 30 minutes i get a backache! I never had that problem with my last car ... a 94 Accord EXR coupe.

Happy birthday to you too. Damn. I wish my parents had bought me a kickass car for my 17th birthday. My first car was a 10 year old used Buick!

Have you really spent enough time messing with the adjustments? Remember, there's a lumbar support as well. Both my dad (68) and I (38) have the same car and he has had major back issues. In the beginning it took him time to dial in the right settings. Once you get them, be sure to store it in the memory. Has your dealer tried to help you out? For the record, these are some of the most comfortable and supportive seats I've ever experienced in a sports sedan.

19 had the TL for about 2 months now. I'd rate it a 8.5 because of the rattles and the minor problems it has.

28....going on 5

I'm 28. Had a 94 Accord EX coupe with leather, til it was stolen....Have/had a 95 Saab convertible (it's for sale) and an 03 Explorer (also for sale) because I never thought I could afford a TL. Luckily, some spoiled brat got a DUI and I got the TL from his parents for WAY cheap!!! I plan on moving to Chicago in the next year or so, so I knew I needed a car that wasn't a convt.....I got the explorer, but quickly realized I was not the SUV type, esp with commuting 100 miles a day....I'm sooo in love with my car. I know I will have it for way long!!!

20 now! I've had my 04 TL since October of 2003 and still love it like that very day of my 18th birthday. It was a present from my father and yes it is my first car. I dont know it it means anything but I've been driving rentals since 16 y/o and give my TL 10+. My father has an 04 Corvette Zo6 commemorative edition Manual Trans and I drive it evero so often in the summer but have to say for me I prefer my TL. Just cause it's mine and dont have to worry if I crash it. LOL!

23 now, will be 24 this July.

I wish my parents would have got me a TL as a gift! But I was happy with the Malibu they helped me get when I was 17. They always stuck to buying the American brands -- 'til I came along

33 here ... 34 before long. Picked up a new 2006 TL, Anthracite and Quartz 6 speed with nav last night. This is my first Japanese car ever, but I've had a couple Honda motorcycles (and a couple Suzuki's and a couple Kawasaki's). Still less than 100 miles on it as of this minute, but that won't last long.

I'm 30, and have had my 2003 Aegean Blue TL-S for two years now. I've done a couple modifications to it since then, and have plans for some more in the near future. Love the car! Here's a picture taken from a road trip not too long ago... Enjoy!

My mom had a 00 TL. I liked it quite a bit, but when the 3rd gen came out it drew me away from other cars I was looking at.

29 for a few more months. 05 5at. This is my first Acura and am pleased for the most part. Step up from my IS300. I would like to see more low end torque from these cars in the future.
