I don’t believe a word. This guy says all of those cars three series they are use. There’s a reason why they are used and why they’re getting rid of them at 19,000 miles.
Be realistic, sometime cause they look attractive, real nice, but remember why you’re buying a car reliability don’t get caught up in the hype buy something that’s there for you. Not something you gotta be there for.
I waited a little over a year for my type s. Bought a 23 type s brand new. 12 miles on it. That was a hard find. Wanted black with black high preformance wheels with red interior.
I have the Aspec too (AWD up here in Canada). I bought it as a daily driver type vehicle, so performance is not my concern. I just find the car is a bit heavy and does seem to eat up a lot of gas (premium!). I like the look of the car and the drive and am overall happy with it. I just hope it lasts as long as my 07 honda, which is still running.
Man I wouldn’t jump in to an M3 … it’s basically the same car for a crap ton more money and TCO. Yes it’s going to perform better, ( at least the true M3’s ) but how much car do you need?
I just got a 2024 A spec for $32k and it's amazing for the money even with the shortcomings everyone keeps mentioning but i can see your point of view, don't mind the comments and enjoy your switch to germany!
@@gabrielsanchez4207 Acura is a new brand in my country (Kuwait) so they're desperate to sell them which is great for me when the german/japanese brands cost 2x or more, but it's an unknown brand everyone thinks it's chinese so it doesn't hold it's value.
@@gabrielsanchez4207Acura is a new brand in my country (Kuwait) so they're desperate to sell them with a lot of discounts, I bought one because a mid range camry/accord cost the same and the other german/japanese brands cost 2x or more, the only downside it doesn't hold it's value at all.
@@mariohysenaj7418 Not salvaged, Acura is new and unknown where i live, The dealer had two left and desperate to sell them they dropped the price from $45k, Also not all cars are as expensive as they are in the US.
I hate to say it, but imo FWD tlx aspec is in a very occward place, awd with the trick awd system is a lot better. I suggest you try out F87 M2 which is a LOT of fun and price is coming down a lot.
Good idea if your looking for a 'real sports car'. Even the Type S is a FWD platform at heart. It's as big and heavy as a 5 series, with less interior space than a A/S4 or 3 series. I worked at a Honda dealer for a decade. Honda ain't what it used to be. The turbo engines tend to burn oil over the long term and the TLX type S transmission has gears made of glass. I ended up buying a Lexus IS while I worked at the Honda dealer due to my last Acura's transmission that began slipping at 72K miles, and a handful of other issues. Ended up in a B9.5 S4 after driving both that and the M340I. Loved both but I got a much better deal on the Audi, and the interior was nicer IMO. The optional sport diff on the Audi is a night and day different from my old S4; it's kicks the back end out and dose doughnuts.
@@MurderMostFowl The Type-S is a good car. It does what they made it to do. I sometimes have buyer's remorse, but then I go for a drive and realize, this car is exactly what they made it to be, and I enjoy and accept it. I chose it. If I wanted more power, those options are out there.
@@ApexBlueTLXalso the only thing Type S underperforms in is acceleration because of weight, but exceeds every other aspect id say handling is its best aspect
Funny thing is the M340i is more powerful than what the M3 use to be not too long ago. A big plus is how reliable the B58 is. Toyota using it in their Supra speaks volumes.

I bought an integra type s...the m340i is heavy and doesn't look as good. Looks terrible actually.

It eats wayy too much gas, im like fueling up everyday
@@deleted9578 it does eat up a lot of gas...im surprised for a honda.
What? I have a tlx aspec and i dont find the gas to be THAT bad. Are you guys racing everyday or something?
@@sparker.24 Its not as gas efficient as other Hondas like an Accord. It ends up being more expensive with the 91 plus gas..
As it’s awd system is as good as Quattro. Accord won’t give you confidence when you accelerate on a curve.
i sold my 2019 Aspec and just picked up a 2002 s2k ^_^ so i'm on the same idea as you were

Have you done the ktuner 2 reflash? If you have the supporting mods, phearable stage 3 makes the car come alive.
Get a MK5 Supra. Best of both worlds and it’s in your price range

Bmw is fun to own. Just have deep pockets bro. Because when they break, it's expensive. And they do break a lot.
As a Type-S owner, I understand.
Can you elaborate?

50K for a FWD??? lmao bro should’ve gotten the RDX or MDX
Just an FYI, an M340i is not a true M car. Don’t fool yourself into thinking it is.
@@gkrieger6824 ofc it’s not but for the segment it competes in, it def out performs the type s in all departments

If you really decide to sell your TLX you trying to sell your down pipes
I have stock downpipes lol
