New poster here, have been lurking for a few weeks while I was eying the TLX, decided to make an account once I got a tentative order in.
A little background. My current ride is a 2013 base ILX in Fathom Blue Pearl, and I love it. This is the first Acura for myself and family. However, my lease was less than ideal for a number of reasons (mostly due to my impatience and inexperience in bargaining). I came in for a wash and saw the TLX and saw an opportunity to improve my situation.
I went to the same salesman who sold me the ILX and told him of my interest in the 4cyl with tech package. We worked out the numbers so that I got a deal I was happy with, though nothing is in stone currently. They did not have what I want on the lot, and no nearby dealer had it either. The color and package combo was already in route however, and they said it should be in by the end of the month. I gave a 500 dollar deposit to make sure the car does not get sold out from under me.
I have not had too much drive time with the car, because they just got the 4cyls in yesterday. He had me take a spin but it had all the plastic on everything, no gas, it was fresh off the truck. He just wanted me to feel it out. On Tuesday I will test drive it more.
I am very excited for this car, I like the look of it and I would appreciate some more tech in my car, coming from a base ILX. I also am not on the hook yet since nothing has been signed so I can walk away if I really don't like the deal or the car over the next month.
