#1123 of 1532 Re: 09 TL too big, weird front end [traumeri] by lax29 Oct 20, 2008 (5:21 am)
Replying to: traumeri (Oct 17, 2008 8:08 pm) Ocim Thanks for your driving impression. Just curious, what do you currently drive now? I do have an 04 TL and am trying to get to the dealer and drive the 09 as well. Is the turn radius really going to be that noticeable with everyday driving?   I have said it before, the 09 does look better in person. Even my wife likes it. But she always said the 04 TL looked like any other car that Honda makes. By no means is she putting Honda products down, that's all we have driven for years. Think she is just happy to see something that a little more striking to the eye.

Replying to: kennyg8 (Oct 17, 2008 8:00 pm) If you think a Honda/Acura transmission needs to be replaced every 30k miles, you have not driven or owned a Honda/Acura. Honda had real problem with transmission in 2001-2003. 2009 TL looks ugly and too big. I think sales of TL will drop a lot. My girlfriend saw it on the road and think that it is new Saturn model.

#1127 of 1532 Interior - Looks by vaughn4 Oct 20, 2008 (12:44 pm)
What do you all think of the huge visor on the dashboard that houses the Navi screen on the 09 TL? Unlike the previous generation TL it doesn't seem to flow with the dash... It kind of sticks out like an after thought... Replies to this message: mikey38 (Oct 20, 2008 1:33 pm) kennyg8 (Oct 20, 2008 6:39 pm) lax29 (Oct 21, 2008 4:58 am)

Replying to: vaughn4 (Oct 20, 2008 12:44 pm) I liked the placement of the Nav screen on the 09..The entire interior is very well layed out....it's still butt ugly on the outside though...IMHO of course.

Replying to: vaughn4 (Oct 20, 2008 12:44 pm) The big 'visor' is supposed to provide a shield for the navi and blocks sunlight from striking the navi screen making it hard to read on sunny days. I like the navi in the 3G, which is closer to the driver (but the glare on sunny days is problematic) and the touch screen functionality.
#1130 of 1532 Acura TL Size by jpdisarro Oct 20, 2008 (9:52 pm)
Although I am interested in the TL, its size is a bit of a turn-off for me. I hope that Acura will release a TSX Type-S to rectify the major problem with the TSX, namely a lack of power. I would be excited about a TSX with something in the range of 250 hp and SH-AWD. Replies to this message: bodble2 (Oct 20, 2008 10:03 pm)

Replying to: jpdisarro (Oct 20, 2008 9:52 pm) Rumours have it that a V6 TSX is coming. A diesel TSX would also likely give the TSX significant low-end torque.   PS: You can't complain too much about the TL's size, or speak negatively about it, on this thread. If you do, then you may face the wrath of some members (albeit only a few) who will accuse you of not offering any useful information. I made the mistake myself of not realizing that some view this thread as a shrine to the new TL.
