@@LinuxRacr yes indeed it’s a lot of fun and one of few cars in the price range that you can’t help to look back at after you park it 🔥😎

@@MrHellothisiscool niceee I’m getting ceramic coating and paint correction on mines too soon… be on the lookout for the video!

@@MarcoTLX for sure definitely worth it for people like us that always like our cars looking clean and don't take cars through the automatic car wash

@@cybernutjr2 yeah you couldn’t go wrong with one. I decided not to get one since my Type-S is a weekend car mainly

@@jaddyrose9318 that 2.0T is pretty tunable base models are well base but some mods can make it decently quick and nice looking with OEM body kit accessories

@@TheBanwait8 it’s the way to go! And the value you’ll retain in your A-Spec should allow you to upgrade into better times when you’re ready to trade in

@@MurderMostFowl my tire and wheel protection warranty covered the entire cost of a new tire so thankfully I had no out of pocket expense for this situation

Will last you a cool 10-15 years easy with only minor issues. I still have my 2010 TL and it’s chugging along.

@@Sologetthemoney yeah! It will I think for me I wanted to keep it for 10 years at first… but things change and I feel like I might trade out of it into something better in under 5 years of owning it

@@MarcoTLX can’t and won’t knock you for that bro. i’ll be honest I do wish it had just a little more something sometimes. it does feel type babied… i’m sure Acura could’ve did more.. what else would you go for just out of curiosity?

@@Sologetthemoney BMW M3 xDrive or E63 AMG so i am plotting on my next car but will still continue to enjoy my Type-S until 2025

People say it will do well for 100-200k miles but it will actually do you very nicely for 350k-550k if you are at all attentive of it. Be easy on the transmission and let it warm up. Anything else will cost an arm and a leg to keep up even a third of that lifetime. BMWs have parts designed to disintegrate at 100k.

@@angrycabbie1 I’ll let you know just reach out to me on my Instagram! @marco.tlx they’re having a meet towards the end of the month!

I got you. I just went and put every accessory available on this car. Norris acura gets it done quick. I forgot to say bro. They did damage my mirror replacing them puddle lights. They ordered a new mirror and putting it on friday

Remember bro everybody has a beamer. Not too many has the type s.

@@angrycabbie1 Acura Laurel or EC? I went to their EC location once not bad but I tend to go to the Acura dealers in Northern Virginia

@@TheRage191 how come? are you not having fun with the car? Don’t see the need for a performance daily driver?

@MarcoTLX the payment is becoming a bit much for a acura even tho I do love the car..m

@@TheRage191 well I understand! Gotta do what’s right for you and i always advocate for being financially comfortable even if that means having to give up the toys!

Shit mine is 1344

@@angrycabbie1 bro that's absurd

Haha thanks it’s not easy to keep clean sometimes

@@MarcoTLX well it was relaxing to watch i had no idea you would 'detail it' too hahaha made it better! but the WORK is the one detailing..question..do you daily that or have something else like a beater if not,are you nervous when you take that to the grocery store? reason is "I' would be every time if that was my daily,or hiding it almost when id park..the TLX regardless of trim,seems to command attention i feel due to not seeing many of them,and its profile

@@johnyaskoveakarpaccio4737 for the first year I did drive it daily! Certain parking situations I’d be nervous but most times I’d park far away in the parking lot and walk up to the store. Now I have a daily car that you can see in my newer video linked below. Pretty sweet daily beater car if I do say so myself th-cam.com/video/p-3Y5IhneRk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZmCA5wZG-UUGi2e0

We both know you’re the real fast guy… you’ll make me look like I am standing still 😂

Thank you! 🙏🏾

Sadly we were in a more rural part of the state so no freeways to stretch our legs aside from like 2 pkwys. But next one should have some free way sections for sure! ✊🏾

@@MarcoTLXno worries bro car looks beautiful even tho I would’ve went with another color but that red 😊stands out.

@@415alkeez thank you!! let me guess Apex Blue?

@@MarcoTLXIm loving that grey pearl rn got the 24 Aspec blk on blk the Type S wasn’t available nor in transition at the dealership so I just settled for it lol I get a lot of looks and comments on it, I can only imagine if I had the Type S prolly double that lol

@@415alkeez yeah it gets a lot of looks and stares haha that bright red is something else

That’s what I thought too! But recent appraisal put my car’s value at a few thousand under $50k

I agree with this 1000%

The person who said nope has no car to be saying that lmfao 😂

B58 sounds good but can’t say the Type-S’s V6 don’t sound good too!

Sleeping in a condo I own* but thanks for your negative assumptions lol

Emotional damage!! 😅

Yeah I looked into it this weekend picked one up and it works like a charm! Thank you!

Haha I wish I was being paid to promote them! I genuinely like the products meguiars has good detailing products. I used to use armor all, and stuff but I tried meguiars and I was impressed with it that I stuck with their products. A good alternative is chemical guys products

That’s a lateral move for me, think bigger 😅

@@MarcoTLX I figured the tlx is 40-50k range that’s why I said m340. I would get a g80 m3 comp x drive. Mines is a rocket and its stock. I can only imagine with full bolt ons and a jb4. Doing all that next month can’t wait.

@@G8xm3kel yeah but if I’m gonna trade the S I’m going full M it only makes sense. I drove the M340i before its quick but for my personal tastes I need the full M model

@@MarcoTLX if you can swing it fuck it. You live once and they hold their value. Drove mines 15k miles and it’s still worth the same as when I bought it 2 years ago.

Type s is faster when tuned

Yeah I got a plan for that rust in the rear right side fender. As for the clear coat I’m thinking wrap the whole car. But at the same time I don’t want to dump too much money in cosmetics. We’ll see though Congrats on the new TLX! You’re going to love that 2024 A-Spec that digital gauge cluster is sweet! 🔥🔥

@@MarcoTLX To be honest, wanted the analog gauge cluster. I like gauges. And that subdued silvery background with red print is "hot." But, I have to admit, I like the all digital cluster too. I've begun to come accustomed to it when I had a 2024 as a loaner. I'm not crazy about the color that I purchased either. My 1st choice was a tie between the silver with red & black interior and the white one with the same; then , the silver with black interior. Well, the dealer had a white one with the red & black interior but I may have waited a tad too long to act on it. "Tiger Eyed Pearl" was high the list if I were able to get the Type S. (I initially saw the white one in the showroom on a day they were closed. The next time I saw it, it was outside. It was the only one on the lot both times. I inquired about it on line at that same dealership, and it was stated that vehicle was "in transit." But then, they received an "Urban Gray" A-SPEC with the black interior. Didn't know if I could live with the interior or exterior LONG term but decided to give it a chance... Reason? The dealerships around here are not putting them on the lots. AND YOU NEVER SEE a Type-S. I mean NEVER! Also, it's getting close to the 2025 model year. The finger track pad that controls the entertainment screen is being removed. As much as I don't like it, I know how to operate it because of familiarization with them with loaner vehicles. I'd much rather have the touch pad then a touch screen that always has fingerprints on it! Yuck! Slim pickens for this car and the MDX is a little too expensive for me. My question is: why is the TLX so rare on dealer lots? Do You HAVE TO ORDER IT?

@@virgilwyatt4632 it’s not that it’s rare it’s that Acura re-tooled their assembly lines to produce the new ZDX so cars that weren’t selling well were slowed down to a halt on their production thus why you can’t find many 2024s and people who can’t wait are buying up 2023 models. I’m still one of very few that has a Red TLX-S in my area

@@MarcoTLX Thanks. That makes sense. I feel much better about my purchase. And I know people are always comparing how slow Your TLX is vs. a comparable Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz. More power to them. (I really don't trust Audi for longevity like I once did. Love S-4's but don't trust their workmanship. And yes, I know Acura's build quality is questioned more now than ever.) Personally, I don't race. I recognize my TLX is slower to get to 80 (a good highway cruise speed for me) but once both cars get there, 80 mph is 80 mph. Your TLX And the longevity of Your powertrain and the overall vehicle will be better. So if anyone wants to challenge You to a duel, refuse. Preserve that beauty and just enjoy the experience of driving.

Thank ya!! I got some things in the works… I can’t say too much but just know 🇩🇪 🔜

I believe it was either the 2nd or 3rd gear that was bad. You’re cruising along at freeway speed and suddenly the transmission jumps from 5th to 1st gear at 80 mph. Instantly bad mechanical damage and possible situations of bodily harm up to and including death because of sudden, rapid deceleration of which could cause the driver to crash. When Acura recalled their TL automatics they extended the standard power train warranty on each vehicle. The 6 speed manual transmission in the 2003 CL Type S was not part of the recall campaign… My transmission is still going strong.

Ahh nice! How you like your Type-S so far 900 miles in?

Well being that’s it’s my second one since my first one got stolen, I’ve enjoyed it more than my previous. I text drove an M340i and it’s def a better car but luckily, not much much. And I also couldn’t justify paying at least 9k monthly payment. That said, this is a phenomenal car all around. Is it the best in its class? No. Does it look the best in its class, imo; absolutely. For both looks and performance, it’s def a great package.

@@francysantos1916 $9k a month!? What was your interest bro 😂😂

I meant 1k

How* ….learn some grammar if you gonna try come at me in the comments

Thank you! TLX is back to 100% now!

Definitely put out a video on that I wanna see, you will very well have the fastest TLX in the states.

@@MarcoTLX sheesh pry not I seen some people got some crazy modifications done to the type s I just got the. Aspec I’m still crawling up

@@TheUnreleasedTruth Still will be interesting to see and more people got A-Specs then Type-S models so you could be helping someone on the fence about modding their A-Spec or so.

Mine were not.

Its a must for the Type-S!

@@MarcoTLX Yes Indeed!!

Sweet! Congratulations on the purchase! How do you like it so far?
