*Correction - 3.0L V6 has a single twin-scroll turbo, not twin-turbo like I said in the video over and over again 🤦‍♂️

I kind of balance my Youtube viewership between Topher(s), Throttle House, and Raiti's rides! All 3 do a great job, and attack the analysis from different perspectives.

I actually quite like this. For a reasonably sporty sedan that you intend to own long-term, this might be one of the best cars out there. More long-term reliability than anything from the germans (maybe aside from like an M340i with the current B58/ZF 8 speed), and still a lot of high quality leathers and interior materials compared to a lot of those germans who are unfortunately moving to gloss black and other cheaper plastics in the attempt to make the interiors look "sleek" and "modern".

Plus, the V6 sounds pretty good and it's a fun level of speed for the street. You actually get to go through a couple gears before you hit the speed limit, which is one thing I miss about my RS3 and one of the reasons I kinda wish I'd left it stock. Definitely a fun car and I've always loved the looks of this refresh.

It’s funny how so many people are fixated on the 0-60 of this and the 340. Every time I see a 340 they’re stuck in traffic just like me, lol. There’s so many reasons to purchase a car besides how quick it is.

Been here for quite a bit and I always love coming back to seeing the indepth Topher reviews. Appreciate the content bud.

Hey man, just wanted to let you know your video on this car a couple years ago was what made me pull the trigger and get a '23 TLX. I was conflicted and couldn't decide between a G80, IS350 F or a Stinger and it was your opinion that shifted me over. Had this car for 6 months and I love absolutely everything about it. I still look at it when I walk away from it; what a great styling.

Great car. Great review. Love this car's styling and performance, especially SH-AWD. If I had a spare $60K, I'd definitely buy this!

Totally agree with the conclusion. Test drove one of these recently when I was looking for mid-range sports sedan. Handles great and has more soul than the S3/4 and C43. Ultimately went for an M340xi for the tech and B58, but Acura is definitely is on to something with this and I hope they keep it around for a while. It’s a great car.

Love the car, just feel like for the price of their sportiest sedan, and the amazing SH-AWD, they needed more power stock to really compete with the lighter chassis B58 engines of the 40i’s. Overall great video as always!

I’ve been waiting for this 2024 review! So exciting!! The TLX Type S is such an underrated car and I would love to drive it someday.

I´ve realized that driving is one of the most enjoyable things in the life, in fact, I liked it to travel in the back seat. Once I travel on a cargo truck and I liked it watching the landscape as we moved forward. Anyway I think these reviews are very good, they´re made with great quality and profesionalism. Thanks.

A car that loves speeding through sharp turns is me. I will buy one of these when I move away from the snowy Ohio. Until then I gotta love my 2007 Honda Accord.
