So my dad's lease on his 06 MDX was up so he had to get a new car. He was hawwing and humming about the Venza, the Crosstour, TL, Lexus LS430, and a TSX. This is what he got... sorry for cell pics

2010 Acura TL SH AWD
3.7 v6 305 HP auto. This thing is awesome and fast. I want it lol. More pics to come but I actually don't mind the front end in black and those gunmetal rims are too drool for. I actually told him if he left that car unattended for a day those rims would magically appear on the mazda3 :chuckle.

Congrats.....still prefer the previous gens styling. The new Acura grill is a face hard to love. The 2010 Mazda 3 grill has grown on alot of people and has the sales to prove it.

Anyhow, these TL's can move and acura has a great AWD system. I'm sure you're dad will enjoy!

yeah man love the new gen tl-sh. I don't mind the grill, but on a black TL-SH it looks much better black.

1+ the back looks really nice the front looks weird. if you paint it black it will set it off better

Won't make a big difference most of the Acura's fronts are hideous and ugly. The shield looking front only looks decent on the Acura MDX.

However not a bad choice out of the bunch listed, could of been worse if he chosen the Crosstour.

Like the others, I'm not fan of the new Acura front fascias, that being said this is still an awesome car despite the lack of a 6-speed. Those rims are pretty nice though ;) Congrats to your dad! =)

Yea was contemplating the 6 spd. But my car is 5spd and my mom's TSX is 6 spd. He figures if my grandma needed a car real bad he needed one that was automatic.. not to mention he drives to Mississauga daily and drives around the GTA all day as an insurance adjuster... so it makes more sense.
