My new car today, just saw it a couple days ago for the first time. Got a pretty good deal on it too.

It's a 2007 Acura TL Type-S, with 286Bhp. Brand new model I'm told, and I've never seen one on the road. So I feel pretty lucky.

Base price is about $38-39,000, with the only options being more high performance tires though I didn't get them.

Doesn't sound like a Japanese car either. Very powerful, lots of pickup, sounds amazing at high revs.

Bo' shizzle!

That is one very niiiice car. Tested her out yet? If so, whats accel. and handling like?

Jamie.
 
I haven't done an actual test, but it does accelerate a bit faster than the BMW. Handling is stiffer than the 3, and I've felt a few more bumps.

I haven't really pushed though like the BMW, so I'll probably be doing that tomorrow or Monday.
 
Sounds (and looks) like a pretty sweet investment, keep me posted.

Jamie.
 
I did forget to add about the keys too b/c imho, they're huge. They're switchblade like too, so everytime I press the buttom, I feel like I'm holding a knife. :p
 
and all that for wacking who?


EDIT: wacking as in killing, not the other kind of wacking

lNice car, you do go through alot of different cars though. I suppose your just one of those people that gets bored pretty quickly of the same car or you run them into the ground lol.

A little. But it just sounds amazing for a Japanese car, I can't resist. :D
 
WHOA!!!! I LIKEY!!!

thats a really sweet ride man, have fun in that thing
 
Cool, I just don't see the reason for a 7k premium for 28hp. :indiff:

I just love the interior of the car, and even from just bieng in the passenger seat, I can tell that its a real hoot. :D

The car looks different too, its not slab-sided like most of its competition.
 
Awesome, those are sexy exhausts.

Congrats!
