I highly recommend one for a DD
286/256 is always fun times. anyone know of any known issues with acura's or the TL in general?

They're very comfortable cars, pretty reasonable too especially for a sport luxury. From AutoWeek...

The Type-S returns to the lineup after a three year hiatus. The engine is mated to a new 5-speed automatic with paddle shifters, or a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission. The regular TL comes with a 3.2-liter VTEC V6 producing 258 hp at 6200 rpm and 233 lb-ft of torque at 5000 rpm. Both the 3.2-liter and the 3.5-liter meet CARB LEV-II ULEV emissions requirements.

Hook me up with the Type-S, Brembo brakes and a 6 speed... yum. Oh yea, don't forget about the V-TEC! V6 I might add.

Yeah those are pretty sweet. Ive always like Acura's for some reason. A+ Luxury car.

Me and my wife almost bought a TL Type-S...

Really nice cars...

But they didnt want to give us what we wanted for our 07 MB C230 so we went to nissan...

I would have gotten a TLS, but they are freakin FWD! I can't stand FWD cars. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[ChrisJ]

They are really nice though...

But Acura only wanted to give us $22K for the 07 MB C230...It only had 9K on the clock...

And then Acura wanted us to pick up the bill for the 22K they wanted after they took off what they were giving us for the MB...

I said screw that...Nissan gave us 32 for the MB...So we bought the pathfinder and a 350Z from them...

Holy crap Nissan gave yhall 32!!!! Wow. That would have sealed the deal right there. Did yhall not like the C230 or just wanted something different. It is kind of odd to go for the posh Mercedes Benz to Nissan. My first car was a Nissan Maxima and then a Pathfinder btw. My brother drove 2 pathfinders, my mom drove a pathfinder, she nows drives a Murano, and my Dad drove a Maxima. Wow

We were a nissan family at one point. Mom, Dad, Brother, and me all drove Nissans at the same time kind of cute. Now it is about to be all BMWs. Maybe except for me, but I still have my two classics.

We have had 3 new MB C230's...They are nice but the maintenance is crazy...$180 for an oil change sucks and you HAVE to have your oil changed by them...It was a really nice car and we had it fully loaded...But alot of the time MB is just a name the customer service and actual production have became sloppy...

The car booked for something like 37K...It was paid off...We bought it for 42K when it was new...Only kept it for about 7 months and got rid of it...The ones before it we kept for about a year...

We love our Pathfinder all the time...I put about 70 miles a day on it going to and from work and we have ZERO issues...Got oil changes and tires for life...Same with the 350Z...

I am very happy with Nissan...

Its 0W20 and they have to handle all maintenance or they will make it take an act of god to get warranty work done...

Wow what a pain in the ass! That sounds just like Jaguar, they have the worst maintenance program.

[ChrisJ]

Yeah and the guys that work at the local MB dealership I think are thieves...

I'd rather have an Infinity G35. 306hp and RWD.
