First Acura TL Type S

I was looking a for a new car and decided to go with 3rd Gen TL. I was not much of fan of the 4th gen and the 5 gen was not in my budget. Currently at the shop getting oil changed, safety and emission. Can't wait to get it, for now just plan on change the interior and fog lights to LED and getting the blackberry music gateway so I can play music over Bluetooth. Do you think that's the best option?

That's right. There is no 5th gen. Until next year, anyway (if they call it that.)

He's getting a Type-S, so it's going to be an 07/08 model.

Like seven said, go with the iSimple unit if Aux isn't good enough for you. Congrats on the new car man! Enjoy it!

Hi HBK;

I'm about to sell my 07 TL Type S in Kinetic Blue Pearl with light leather interior. The car is in excellent condition and has 83k miles.

If you're still looking PM me, otherwise I will be listing it on Craigslist next week.

I want $15.5k for it.

thanks.

5AT. I upgraded most of the interior lighting and trunk and license plate with VLED's. I had the front brake calipers painted black and I added a Metal foot rest with engrave to add Type S logo so it matches the brake and gas pedals. The car runs great but I'm thinking of upgrading to a BMW M235i as I need a new business write off
