I cross shopped the 4G TL and the 5G TLX.
I liked the exterior styling of the TLX, the jewel headlights and I guess the fact that it would be NEW. There are some things I liked about the interior, the super clear gauges, the mini GPS between the tach and speedo, the navigation seemed pretty nice and the controls on the steering wheel were cool.
I didnt like the seats, the multiple lcd screens and clunky interface, the lack of shifter in the center console, the lack of mechanical buttons for simple things like heated seats, the thin-ish steering wheel, and the drive of the car just felt ...meh. Not to mention the jumpy transmission.
And perhaps the biggest deal breaker for me, no manual transmission.
I think unless they were to come out with a Type S version, I would probably wait until the 6G TLX. Now of course if they fix a lot of the things I have issues with, maybe 4-5 years from now I would get one.
