Hey guys, I'm picking up an 06 TL, 6 Speed this saturday and was wondering if any of you have had experience with them. Would like any last second advice you could provide before I sign on everything. I've enjoyed my TSX I've had since October, but I just can't stand having an automatic any longer!

Do a tranny swap on the TSX! IMO, they are much nicer cars than TLs. Or upgrade to a type-s.
off topic, but does your tsx have tiptronic? -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

I love the look of the TL so much more than the tsx. Plus, 6 speed and nav is what I really wanted, my tsx is non navi. It's got Acura's sport shift or whatever name they call it.

I don't have any experience with them but they seem to be excellent cars hopefully it all works out. I wish my SI was a six speed. K swap time!

Nice cars, but could never afford Premium gas only. I rather get a Lexus over these things.

Sucks for me that premium isn't the typical $3-5 more per fillup that everyone else says it is.. It's definitely $10 (more if I end up at Shell) more each tank than 89. Post pictures ASAP!
