I saw DAB in person for the first time on an A-Spec, and I really like it! There was a customer owned ITS AB there too for comparison
I had service done on my MDX and then spoke with the Sales Manager afterwards about when they would get the A-Spec Tech 6MT in, and they wonāt have one anytime...
I really like both colors, but I still havenāt seen DAB in person yet. Iāve looked at a lot of photos online, and the DAB is really growing on me. It appears that the shade of blue may look different depending on the angle and how the sun hits it (maybe someone can chime in on this). If so, that...
Oh no, they changed the color?!? Ah man, thatās a bummer⦠I think. I guess Iāll hold judgement until I see it in person.
My other two color choices are⦠Red, or Black w/red interior.
my #1 choice is blue with RED interior, but they donāt make it. WHY?!? Acura offers that combo on MDX and TLX...
Great input from both of you.
Since they didnāt have a 6MT last week I test drove an A-Spec Tech CVT, and I must say it greatly exceeded any expectations. My typical response (based on driving a car with one many years ago) to anything CVT is š¤®. This newer generation Honda CVT is something...
I appreciate your perspective. I hadnāt considered the difference with the brakes; thank you for pointing that out.
Also, your Type-S looks awesome too!

Great discussions!!! I should have joined this forum a long time ago!
So, Iām not one for modding my cars or working on them except for detailing. Also, I like the peace of mind having the warranty despite I probably wonāt need it with a Honda/Acura.
After a couple of days now I am still...
So⦠did you chuckle and have a sheepish smirk as you pressed the āpost replyā button! (Pulls pin and throws grenadeā¦)
Ok, so youāve hit the nail squarely on the head⦠your arguments are the EXACT things that little devil on my left shoulder keeps whispering into my ear!
The A-Spec is sensible...
Great feedback everyone, very much appreciated!
Iāve never been more conflicted about a car purchase. Iāve 100% āmade up my mindā one way and then the other multiple times⦠my current thought (as of 11/18 2:18pm EST) is A-Spec Tech 6MT.
Iām really looking forward to the test drive in the A-Spec; Iām very curious to feel how it pulls through the gears. Iāll be sure to shift early.
Thank you for the reply. I think if I drive both Iāll for sure want the Type-S. So⦠Iām only planning to drive the A-Spec at this point and hope the 200HP and 6MT are fun enough while considering it gets great gas mileage. The car will primarily be a commuter, and I also plan to teach my...
I should have mentioned other previous āfun carsā.
1996 Trans Am WS6 6MT
2001 Corvette 6MT
2009 G37 S Sedan 7AT (I HATED the transmission, took a loss and bought the TL)
Out of all the cars, the TL 6MT is my overall favorite car (to this point anyway).
Hello everyone, this is my first post. I havenāt been on a forum for many years. I havenāt had a āfun carā going on 6 years. My last āfun carā was a 2010 TL 6MT; itās the only car in my 35+ years of driving that I regret selling. I should have kept that thingā¦.
Anyway, Iām finally back into a...
