Is the 2024 Acura TLX A-Spec the BEST new AWD sport sedan to BUY? 

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! It’s almost Friday thank God! Please make sure you let me know & Acura know what your feelings are on the refreshed TLX A Sspec. Make sure you also see my separate review of the refreshed TLX Tyoe s! Thank you as always for being super supportive!

Yes, it looks like to me the Acura A Spec now has its own identity. So glad we've got Joe's heart going pitter-patter.

*AMAZING REFRESH* not everyone wants a damn SUV ‼️ Thank you #Acura for still making a car 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I've had my tsx for over 10 yrs 300+ k miles and still runs great, acura really delivers a quality product!!, love the blue color and the new design!!!

Love the design and the way the side sticks out and the rear of the car, beautiful car

I love watching your car reviews above others. the details you give are much more rich

that interior is beyond amazing, its so nice!!!!

Beautiful car, the Apex Blue is stunning, love the frameless grill looks super cool Acura did a good job!

The TLX is my favorite car and this trim level and color is the best. I wish they kept the analog guage cluster but that's my only complaint.

This is what you get when excellence and dedication comes together

Daaam Joe, great vlog I bought the 2023 white A-spec last month bcuz of your vlog on it, now you come out with this 😂😂should’ve waited for the 2024 . Hope Acura knows how many ppl you influence with ur great vlogs, I wouldn’t buy a car without checking with you 1st 😂😂👍👍👍

The TLX is a great car in its own right. It may not be the roomiest or quickest, but it looks great, it’s screwed together tightly, and is a great value as is always the case with Acura. The updates, although subtle, look really good, especially the new rims. I don’t love the 4-cylinder engines, but they’re not terrible either. Three major omissions: pano sunroof, touchscreen, and ability to use the full infotainment screen for a particular function rather than only split screen.

I was really thinking about the type S but in reality, I'm not racing around and the a spec is better on fuel and is quick enough. Thank you for for making think more practically about the good value we're getting with this trim.

Great looking car and review.

Joe keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true 💯

Love Acura! I still have my 2007 Acura TL with only 88000 miles and runs great, just some of the plastic parts have failed inside the cabin. Gonna get me a 2024 TLX A-Spec one day. 👍

The legs were finally legging in this studio lighting! Great review & good looking car. I may actually end up getting one of these puppies.

The best car reviewer on RU-vid!!

I have 22 ILX ASPEC and this or TYPE S will be my next car! Can't wait

If it had a touchscreen infotainment and six speed manual? Then YES!!!!!

Great Review ❤

Love the color and this will my dream car.

nice critique Joe, it's a beautiful car, it's so aesthetically pleasing, Acura should have called it the Raiti spec.

Drop dead gorgeous sedan. Type S should be money.

Right on time! I was waiting for this review!!

"2 memory seats so you can share your tlx a-spec with a friend...... I wouldn't let them" LMAOOOO same

I just wish it was atleast 300 hp 272 isnt bad but for the price we should get 300hp atleast same with the types the type s should get 400hp

Looks better now with them tips

Love the car. Love the review.

For those that are obsessed with touchscreens.....you need to get over that. The touchpad works pretty well and Acura does a great job of providing alternate ways to use your infotainment using other buttons. If you want to change stations or advance songs...you can use a button on the steering wheel or next to the touchpad. Same with volume control. You don't need a touchscreen to get covered with fingerprints!

It actually doesn't drive like a boat 🚢 I own a 2021 TLX tech package. Yes, on paper it's heavy but the engine and trans are tuned for low end torque so you won't feel sluggish off the line. Also sh-awd pushes you around corners beautifully. My only complaint is that the power feels a little under at high speeds (like 80+ mph). But it still gets the job done. The people who complain about this car have never driven it. Dollar for dollar, this is the best value in the market. Everyone will compare it to a BMW but that will always be $10k more when comparably equipped with features. Weight on paper does not equal real world feel and putting around town. I love my TLX. I can't even imagine what the type S is like!!

Loving the 2024 A-Spec to replace my 2021 FWD Advance. In urban grey/red please!!! Raiti, are you allowed to say a date when your media drive video will be released?

Acura just has that Secret Sauce...They seem to hit that Goldilocks of sporty and classy. The TLX is some damn good stuff right there!

Love this colour and roomy backseat. Infotainment system is great with the precision touch pad. But still have to get used to that push button shift.

Only thing I wish is they bump up the power to 280hp or something other than that it looks amazing

You forgot Windy Winston & Messy Tessy 😂 great video!

As a '23 Aspec owner in AWD i can tell you i really want that damn Exhaust tip and those wheels

The purist in me wishes this was a manual but man this is a good looking ride

Beautiful ❤

What happened to the adaptive suspension of the advance package?

as much as I LOVE to get a TYPE S.... I just don't see the 9-10k price difference... this A SPEC is really nice!! just wish it was a SPORTBACK

Nice! Although Acura is stepping up their game they still sit on a FWD platform. With that said I still think the BMW M340i XDrive is the king of this segment so I bought one.

Great video as usual. I have the 2015 TLX and love it. I was hoping for a panoramic sunroof, but I guess it's not to be. Not a fan of touchpads in general, wish the screen was a touch one. My son's Elantra has it, so why not Acura? Thanks :-).

This is Apex Blue! It's body already uptakes me!

The rims looks a lot better! Still prefer gloss back but I’ll take it. Maybe I’ll get 1 of these in the next couple years

Good morning, Joe! Stay awesome.

Beautiful car, nice refresh, touchscreen don’t bother me, I hate dirtying my screen. But the vacuum exhaust were always a big pet peeve, so the change to the exhaust really sets it own identity

I like this TLX much better I’d have liked it better with red and black leather int it’s so cool in this colored car I agree all cars should have panoramic roofs on them by 2024 it makes it feel so much more open and not make me feel claustrophobic over all I think they’ve done a great job here now

Great looking car and review. Now I’m questioning buying a 2023 Aspec now or just waiting for the 2024.

Now I know what Joe was up to on October 11 at 8:48am.

I'm glad they gave it a digital dash finally. 😊 But I'm also zonking that its not a touchscreen still. 😢 They proved it can be done in the ZDX afterall.

10 out of 10! Just an excellent job, Acura.

Like these exhaust better

When is it available?

Plenty of space on that dash to have made that a 15" display.

Hate the fact there isn’t a right hand drive for other countries to buy this sexy car

Geesh this one is 🔥🔥 i could imagine the Type s AWD 😮😮

Can you get a heated steering wheel on this? Also noticed the spoiler isn’t as kicked up as how the type s is as well I think. Glad they finally added rear connecting ports for back seats too

It looks more like BMW M3, M5 and M8. I loved just from the thumbnail

Looks like there was 'a spec' on the camera lens.

No rear heated seats ? Civic Touring has them and in Canada my 17 Si has them.

Looks better. What’s the price?

Finally a full digital cluster

Joe no touchscreen is dealbreaker for me. Doesn’t make sense that the new Accord has better infotainment than the TLX. Plus no panoramic sunroof. Great video Joe!

That color is hot

Liking this one.

What’s the price because the m340 xdrive is out there.

Is it just me or do yall think the 23 aspec grill will look better and sportier on the 24 aspec and maybe little bit bigger rims other than that love the car

I hope they make it lighter and hybrid eventually in this generation

The updates are fine but the glaring issues are that the car is very heavy and the biggest issue is the lack of a manual transmission.

i don’t like the dashboard especially the monitor it’s annoying separated. The hp is small for the sports car. Still love the BMW 330i Design and Machine The Best!

i have the stupid usb exhausts which is one of two complains i have with this car. ugly usb exhausts and infotainment not being able to go full screen especially with andriod auto. everything else even my analog gauge cluster is a home run in my book. personally don't like all digital clusters. i don't care how much but i need that exhaust on my car. 100 percent getting that changed when this is out.

..but does it come in manual?

Cool 😎

Insane Acura TLX sedan I want to buy Joe.

I’m just glad there’s a power increase you know what I mean

Did he just say 30 packs of Garbage Pail Kids!

I love the front styling. I wish Honda would’ve gave the Accord this front bumper as well but it would certainly cut into Acuras sales.

i feel like this car would've been better with the v6 of the pilot or ridgeline

No touchscreen! That's gotta be a quadruple ZONK!

Such a nice car, looks pretty good.

Hi Joe, this car is #1

Still can’t believe they didn’t put digital dash on the Type s yet the MDX got it. Smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

💯

Carplay needs a touchscreen. Receiving texts, you have like 2-3 seconds to click on the notification to have it play. Move it forward, make it touchscreen and move that overload of buttons down to the console area like heated/cooled seats buttons.

Are they addressing the flaw that allows it to be stolen in a matter of minutes?!

ACURA NICE SEDAN I AM SICK OF SUVS

I think Acura should think of making the TLX a sportback like an Audi S7 , for practicality. I think it would be a hit with the Type S as well .

Ugh. Was hoping to get a touchscreen. That’s a dealbreaker for me. However, I haven’t tested out the touch pad. How difficult is that to get used to?

13:51 ?

Acura dashes look so dated to me.

That interior….yikes 🤢.

LOVE THE BLUE....I'D TAKE 1

W Honda aka WONDA, W Acura!

These are nice but man are they heavy, there have about 800+ pounds versus the honda accord 2.0t sport.

This or a Lexus is350? 😫

Over all 2024 Tlx is killed cause I own 2022 I love the model and look it’s a spec too

Raiti rell these manufacturers enough of the daytime running lights and super bright headlights. Its truly annoying

So sweety back to in Indonesia overall easier and change to City drive look for Centinental power Acure or Acura Ah Ah.. Oh.. What the A-X performance tools perfect list air blow. Take away for talking delivery blue suede for cap and corp have beautifull BLUE DOPP.

Needs better gas mileage 😕
