I want a TL. Those things are freaking pimp. Do Acs have the same dependability we have come to trust from Honda?

I want something a little fancy, but not gaudy ( I had a BMW 5-series before...to show-offy, $$$to maintain). Something quick enough that won't annoy me, but really something that is nice and hopefully reliable.

I just got a 2007 Accord EX V6 with Navi brand new for 25k... the TLs are just about 13 grand more than that... and you get very little for your money. Definitely not 13 grand worth...

The answer is yes. Acura islikea luxury Honda. Of course all decals say Acura cause it infact is an Acura(based onouter/interior design, features,etc.)but theentire power train(engine,tranny,ECM,etc.) is strictly Honda specs and manufactured. Go ahead and do this, go to an Acura dealer and pop the hood on any care and look at the valve cover "Honda motor co.".[sm=gears.gif]

I am a certified mechanic myself(gas)and have an associates deg.in Automotive Technology(I no longer work in that field) but I still don't know it all. I can tell you that I do know enough to say that mechanic needs to be shot[sm=shootshoot.gif][sm=violent053.gif]Oh, and I'm sorry for answering the question, I thought it was a serious question.
