The reason I am considering leaving Acura is simple; fit and finish. While I am happy with the majority of the features and performance of my car, I am dissapointed in the rattles/squeeks/fades/cracks/etc that have occured in my car. I do however realize nothing is perfect but am trying to get into something with a bit more quality. Thanks in advance!
Hi Levy -
I'm the guy you want to talk with. I got one of the early '04 3G TL's (vin # below 600) and it was a POS Lemon and Acura had to buy it back... I didin't like the 05 Gs and the new 3 Series & IS were not out yet, so I purchased an 05 TL with my judgement. Mistake. The fit and finish still sucked, the "alarm" doesn't stop intruders (got broken into 4 time & the alarm never went off - had to buy a Clifford), the 1500RPM driveline vibes remained, rotors warped, dash faded, windshild stress fracture, and the transmission whined. There were other issues, but why bore everyone... I just traded it in on an 07 G Journey w/Prem, Navi, Tech & Perf packages --- WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Everyone I know likes the 07 G so much more than the TL... I enjoy driving again and I don't have to crank my XM up to not have to hear the rattles and transmission whine. I'm a huge Acura/Honda fan, but I would NEVER recommend one until they get their act together...
Now to your question, I paid $35,708 for my G35 - $500 over invoice.
Hope this helps - let me know if you need any more info...
