The one thing I'll give Acura is that the TL SH-AWD 6MT does seem to be one hell of a package. Like all recent Acuras, though, I do have to throw in a "shame about the looks" caveat. But still, it seems like a very good car.
I may be shallow - but for me, that's a heck of a caveat. I hear it's supposed to drive great, but... make that
BUT..... I can't imagine purchasing a vehicle that I considered to be a let-down in the areas of peformance, interior quality / design, exterior design or reliability. In addition to being shallow, I'm greedy.
Then again, the automatic TL SH-AWD sure didn't impress C/D much at all. It didn't just finish dead last - it finished WAAAAAAAAY behind the Infiiti and BMW. And it generally doesn't take much for a Honda product to impress those guys.
