Honda motor company is very slow in bringing new models to market. It is only expected that there will be a 09 redo that will go on sale in late 08. It could very well be a 10 model instead. Honda is very tight mouthed about their new cars. So buy now and enjoy.

Honda goes on a 5 year cycle for its models. The 3G TL was introduced in late 03 as an 04 model. The 4G TL WILL show up in late 08 as an 09 model.

"Honda goes on a 5 year cycle for its models."
 
Since when? I have no inside information on when the next TL will be introduced, but the MDX ran 6 model years (01-06) and the S2000 is on its 8th. There is NO certainty about when the next TL will come out - lots of people in the MDX forum stated with absolute certainty in 2004/5 that the 2006 would be a redesign. WRONG.
 
If I had to guess, a 2009 MY redesign would be a relatively minor one, but if they wait until 2010 (as I expect, given the 2007 introduction of the TL-S), we could see a RWD platform and/or other more major changes. But that's just my guess.

According to my Acura Salesman, 09 is the year.
He went to the most recent Acura convention and he said this has been stated.
Confirmed, who knows for sure.
 
Either way, I'm not gonna be a first year guinea pig for this big of a change.
If the car impresses me that much, I'll be in line for the 2010.
 
Man, just saying 2010 makes me feel old!
Starting to feel like a character from "Logan's Run"
... time to renew

Pulling the trigger in 2-3 weeks.
Until then, nothing is definite, but if I was dropping cash on something this morning, it would be the 07 G35x w/ Prem/Nav/Tech/Wood packages.
Slate Blue on Black.
 
I've had too many little complaints with my 06 MDX.
The dealer is friendly, but 6 visits for the same problem is a little much. Nav losing power, Subwoofer and dash rattles, driver's seat movement, whistling windshield... $45,000 for what?!?!
Other than little quirks, it's very nice.
Owning a Honda for 7 years and 180,000 miles, I have to say they are amazing vehicles... they just dont stop.
I know the TL is rock solid in reliability.
With that being said, I've had TL loaners 5 times now. I have to say, I got bored with them.
I hope TL owners dont take offense by that, it's just my opinion.
 
I drove the G35 and was stunned... I loved it.
The TL, unfortunately, didn't give me that same feeling.
 
I hope Nissan/Infiniti reliability treats me as well as Honda/Acura has.
 
Countdown continues.
