SWEET!!!! I have the 03 version of the Tl, wish I held out for another year. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it? |

heh thanks.
umm well you can prb get it much cheaper in NY, but here in Cali its really hard to negotiate a good deal. Well with that said, everything including tax and registration was about 34k. I was not willing to pay over 35 for it, so getting for 34 was pleasing. I ended up spending $1000 for tint and all season matts and a hitch but all in all a good experience at my dealer. |

Thanks
I love the stereo system! I got the Linkin Park Reanimation DVD-A, and evem when i was playing with people in the car who cant stand that music, they were constantly moving their heads listening to all the different channels comming out of each speaker... although its only 210 watts which in my mind is WAY underpowered, and i want to upgrade it, but first i have to find an amp that supports 6 channels...
The XM i am finding is... ok... I have all my presets but they tend to repeat themselves.
In my mind i think for the money it has the best interior out of any of cars in its price class. |

my 4-speed auto has a said 0-60 of about 8 sec, but i've timed it multiple times and i get a little less, best one so far is about 7.5 sec. wait til i get my engine mods (exhaust, intake chip, maybe headers). I'll own your little stock TL . l8r. |

5.8 sec? whoa, that's amazingly fast. that would beat most cars on the road, unless it's a Z-6 or WRX-STI. |

yea 5.8 is really fast for a tl, although only one mag has been able to achieve those times, so i know i have a long way to go in order to get those times into shape.
natedj: yea the new TL style is great... i would wait for the 05 if your gunna get a TL since Acura just issued an Auto tranny recal (joys of a manual) I heard the Nav is a really cool feature and useful (too bad my parents didnt agree with me on that) |
