Hey guys! So I was super excited yesterday night. My dealer called me and told me they had just installed the launch kit (200 available kits in Canada) on one of their TLX. I ordered it as well, $3200, with Michelin Pilot tires, AND you keep the original 18"rims and tires that come on the car!
It was the V6 model, and it drove like a beauty! The P-AWS was rock solid.The features (sound quality, quiet ride, siri eyes, IDS, ) were great. Felt a lot lighter then my current TL. I can't wait to try the sh-awd, which is the one I ordered. Must be even better! Here are some pictures in the meanwhile guys. Enjoy!
Body kit, 19" rims and Michelin tires in the pics. The original 18"rims and tires that come on the car also belong to you. You can just buy winter tires and sell the ones on them...
Wow, thanks for sharing pictures of your TLX, I always wanted to see what they look like in black and like most acura's in black yours looks killer, especially from the rear with the lights illuminated like that.

Thanks for the pics, I ordered the Blk TLX SH-AWD with the launch package too. Are the Michelins still 225 or 235 and are they all season or summer tires only (hopefully)?

I know I wasn't expecting to like it, but when i saw the gunmetal rims, the tint, its like EXACTLY how I would do it. Anyways going to have to be patient....
No offence but i hope you're wrong. I know they switched to the Euro size back in 2009 and it would be a curious decision to revert back now but one never knows. That said my current winter tires are on 18" rims with 235 width so worst case i swap them to the 18" rims that come with the launch package as extras (provided the offer of keeping the original tires and rims with the package applies to the west coast too).

Took my 2015 TLX SHAWD with 56,000km in for service and received a 2019 TLX SHAWD with 1,000km as a loaner.
The 2019 seems superior to my 2015 in every respect:-
- transmission is smoother and more responsive;
- engine/exhaust has more of a growl (my car almost sounds like an electric car);
-...
Local dealer agreed to let me keep a 2015 TLX....4Cyl/Tech...over the weekend.
Coming from a 2009 TSX which has been a very solid vehicle.
A few early observations:
Was surprised at the interior room. The space felt no larger than my TSX. For being a midsize sedan, was expecting a larger...
Well I went to the Acura dealer today to test drive the TLX i4. They did not have the i4 with the Tech package so
the only i4 available to test drive was the base model.
The car was Crystal Black Pearl with Espresso interior.
Fit and finish on the car seemed very good to me and the color...
Am I the only one that has noticed how off the QC is in terms of body panel fitment on the 2018s? Specifically where the hood and fender meet near the headlights. I went to my local dealer and noticed that most, if not all have a significant difference in panel spacing from one side of the hood...
Day long test drive - I've driven it from the dealer to work, which is 12 miles of freeway, and then to lunch and pleasure cruising at lunch.
Ride is wonderfully smooth and quiet. On the freeway felt hesitation when wanting to kick it up a notch to pass. Too much hesitation IMO. That was in...
