I went from a 2013 brz to a 2012 TL 6MT and I haven’t looked back. After a 100, 000 miles of ownership I still love this car. It may not be best looking car, but it is functionally the best manual awd daily driver you can own in the Midwest. Eat your heart out wrx and STI

I think this 4th gen TL is the best one they made

I have a 2014 tl SH AWD and i love it so much! Just hit 111k miles and she purrs like a kitten! Excellent performance, lots of smiles per gallon and it fits all my friends for the most part! Fits kids much better but adults also fit in the back seat with light complaining!

Just got into an accident one hour ago. Lady ran the light this car just save my live 🙏🏾 ❤️ thank you Acura

The grille and rear of this car is what kinda sets it back tbh, I think acura peaked with their 3g TL design

You're spot on about the 6mt being the perfect daily!👌🏽 my previous whip was a 6mt g35 sedan, and that got way too much attention. The TL does it all without making a scene.

I used to have an ‘89 Mercedes which I still own as a project. Afterwards I got a 2012 TL 3.5 and I love it, I originally wanted a 3rd gen but I fell in love with it. Even after driving a SH-AWD I think I’ll drive my 3.5 into the ground

I like me the J32 and J35 respectively. But that 3.7 I’ve heard is terrific.

I drive a mint 2013 SHawd Tech since new. Only 61K miles and tons of mods. It's bulletproof excellent. Nothing brakes. Just regular maintenance stuff. My only gripe is that you cannot swap out the factory stereo for a newer touchscreen head-unit because of the integrated ELS system.
09-25-24 - Update: A YT channel "Acura Audio Garage" came out with their own custom harness kit for aftermarket stereos for this make, model. Bought this kit and installed a new JVC touchscreen w/Android Auto! After install, I did full timing belt, water pump, spark plug service and will keep the car for more years to come! Just an amazing daily!

I own a 3rd Gen. The 4th Gen looks like someone's grandfather's car. If I did buy one, the 1st thing to go would be the silver grill.

4g all day, I have a white 13, did a few things to it, and all I get is compliments and questions. Only had it 3 and half months. Beautiful sexy car after the right touches

I have the 2014 with almost 300, 000 miles with the original engine and transmission love it takes care of me ❤

I think this car was made way before its time and people during that era still preferred cookie cutter vanilla designs. The 2012 refresh was gorgeous and if they advertised this refresh with Umber Interior colour and in Advance/Elite Trim level with those 19 inch wheels and 6 speed Manual, i think it would have been very popular but the marketing of this car was flawed unfortunately as they kept showing base model with ugly 17 inch rims and no lip spoiler. This car looks and feels executive when you sit in it. Many 3rd generation enthusiasts whether owners or not only have the base or premium auto models in mind and forget the 6 speed manual with awd will demolish the previous generation

The TL looks like a four-door NSX Acura

Dog your doing the damn thing on here player. Content on point. Your giving both views and hitting the bullseye... Now I can talk you to death about the 4th Gen and it was not THE GRILL. Actually it was the transmission issues in the 2nd&3Rd Gen that scared off Acura enthusiasm for the 4th Gen. How do I know. I had those transmissions in the 2002 Accord v6 and the 2001 Acura CL. They were terrible.the recalls etc made PPL shy away. I'm sure you up on those issues. I've reached out to countless PPL who agree. Once you Color match THE GRILL the argument is out the door. I have both the 2010 6 speed and the 2011 Auto box shawd. I got the best of both worlds. They are complete opposite of each other. Hard top describes unless you drive both. I'm sending your channel to PPL I hit up on youtube and telling them you got the hot new channel that's on point

6MT, 3.7, dual vtec, SH-AWD, Aspec kit = the best all around Acura ever made imo🔥!

[derekbrackett]

I absolutely love these cars so much !!!

[Santi]

Mine is 2010 Tech package with less than 100k. Still going strong

[greenlit]

I love my 4G SHAWD minus the oil burning.

[soleworkz]

Picked up the 2012 tech package. Never could find the Shawd. Paddle shifters are fun and seems like the 3.5 doesn’t have the oil consumption issues the 3.7’s have. Just hard to get the A Spec front lips😅
