2006 Acura TL A-Spec Dynamic.

The "dynamic" moniker wasn't actually well known, besides for in dealerships (and on the sales summary sheet). The Dynamic came with a 6MT, LSD, Brembo brakes on the front, amongst some other minor goodies over the auto version. I also have the OEM Navi in mine, and I've added some bolt ons over the years. Exhaust, intake, wheels, beefier rear swaybar, throttle body spacer, lowering springs, etc...

I'm an old school Honda guy, but these days Honda/Acura is nothing short of disappointing. The companies have become "vanilla" through and through, since 2008. Reliability sucks. Any trace of sportiness is gone. Just disappointing.

It's sad when Hyundai/Kia have surpassed Acura/Honda in every way imaginable.

Speaking of which, I also have a 2012 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T Limited w/ Navi, however, it's the wife's daily that I occasionally drive... I try to avoid it though, due to it being an auto. It has good power (274hp and 270lbft) and full torque is available from about 1600rpm. Besides the auto transmission, the suspension annoys me. It's just waaaaay too soft for my liking. The wife always gets queasy when I drive because the car nose dives when braking even moderately, or has annoying body roll in the corners (without pushing it much). I'm sure it could easily be addressed with some coilovers and swaybar, but I have no desire dumping money into that car. However, it has been reliable as hell for us. In 80000 miles, it's been to the dealership for one actual issue.
