From 2001 through 2008, Type S set the standard for Acura performance in North America, offering a dynamic driving experience with more power, improved handling and stronger braking. Those high-performance variants continue to hold a special place in the hearts of driving enthusiasts. Today, 2021 marks the return of Type S with the debut of the 2021TLX Type S and 2022 MDX Type S.

Fully agree. I own an 02 Legend, rebadged as the 3.5RL, but closest thing to the original cult classic legend before the KB1 came around. What Acura needs to do is make the Legend a BMW 7 series competitor. Finally offer a V8. As well as a type S variant of the Legend. I’ve done what I can to turn my Vermont Green Pearl 02 Legend into a VIP cruiser, dumping tens of thousands into making it perfect, my 03 Silver Legend is the performance test bed for what the Legend could’ve been had they simply offered a Type S with a V8. Gonna be using the K48, (2 K24’s split open at the crank and turned into a V8).

My wife had a '92 Legend as her first car, very nice car. We've been buying Acura's ever since aside from the Solara we had for a few years. I quietly resented every TL I saw on the road the whole time we owned that Solara. We actually bought one of the Agaen Blue 2003 Type S's right before we got the Solara, turned out the transmission had gone on the Type S (big surprise on that gen lol) It was just out of the extended warranty also unfortunately. Now we are back in TL's though!

@HalfBreedMix 3 жыл бұрын

Actual names (except for the NSX) were still being used in Japan where the Acura brand didn't exist (the car models were obviously there, they were just branded as Hondas). Honda Integra = Acura RSX. Honda Legend = Acura RL. Where it use to get confusing was with the Accord & TSX; the American market Accord is called the Inspire in Japan, and what we called the TSX was referred to as an Accord outside the States. My guess as to why they are using the alphabet-soup naming strategy; distinguishes it from the Honda models (although Honda is doing it too with names like CR-V) and to sound like the competition from the Germans (to the consumers' ears).

I have 2003 CL Type S with 6 speed manual. I purchased it brand new and took delivery of it on September 30, 2002. I've had a lot of mechanical work done to it to keep it running properly and now have over 245,000 miles on the odometer. I had a new clutch and flywheel installed at the dealership and She feels brand new. I've only ever put premium fuel in Her tank as required. She's been on long road trips between Houston, TX: Peru, IN; Chicago, IL; Youngstown, OH & Detroit, MI. Fun to drive and great handling OTR vehicle. This vehicle was rare from the start: It was the last year of it's production, the only year they built it with a manual transmission and the only year it came in the color I ordered, of which is Anthracite.

Crazy that they didn't even mention the CL Type S 6MT that was only available in 2003 in super limited numbers. One of the greatest Acura cars in North America - not a peep.

Thought the samething. Black headlights and red/taillights. I still have my 03 6spd. Transmission is so smooth in them. They only made like 3500+ of them. Give it time and people will be hunting for them.

Can't wait for the TLX Type S! I'd love to have that in the garage with my 2008 TL Type S someday!

They need to bring back the CL man, from 01-03 they were legendary. Especially that v6 6-Speed

I'm stoked to own a fiji blue 2008 Acura Csx type-s! Love the history of these cars and that they make great daily drivers! For those who don't know, the exclusive CDN Csx type-s was made from 2007-2010 with limited production. Honda Japan actually chose its design when making the Honda JDM etc in Japan. Neat to know the design of the Csx was the first original design :) I think in the next 10 years or so, these will go up in value and become more rare etc. The new TLX-S looks pretty sick.. love they are bringing the Type- S back.

I love my 07 tl type s and 05 rsx type s because they were instant legends, everyone in the tuner world talked about them. the new type s models looks very promising but I'm not entirely sold. Acura has some making up to do for leaving us in that "lost identity" decade

I have a 2006 TL 6 speed, I enjoy it quite a bit. My sister has an '08 type S Auto. I was going to get that Type S myself but I wanted a manual. My wife has an '09 TL 3.5l fwd, both faster than mine by a little but shifting through the gears on the 6 speed is much more satisfying than the paddles on the other two. GG all around though, so excited to see they brought back the Type S.

06-08 TL Type S stands as the second best Acura behind the obvious NSX. That V6 was reliable and responsive. These new turbo charged 4s just ain’t the same.

Very interesting mini vid on the origins of the Type-S. I am curious on why they didn't touch the TSX with a North American version Type-S? The TSX was/is a solid car. I've always been curious on why they left the car out.
