Audio system not their finest moment
Overall, the TLX Sport is a fun car to drive and it has many of the amenities.that have characterized this car model in the past. Exception is the computer mouse pad that is used to identify and change radio stations. It is difficult to operate while driving. The distraction in trying to change radio stations. especially using the satellite Sirus XM, makes this a negative. It lacks the ease of use that I was accustomed to in the 2015 TLX model that I drove until I purchased this new model. I was also unhappy in Acura's decision to eliminate the AM radio. Now if I am on the road when The Chicago Bears are playing, I have to listen to the game on a small portable AM radio. That is a ridiculous solution for a new car whiuch supposedly has all the new and updated electronics expected in a 2023 car.

Great Daily Driver
I’ve owned many Acura’s in the past however in the last 10 years I have gotten away from them due to build quality, looks and lack luster performance. My last Acura that I really enjoyed was a 2005 RSX Type S. I recently purchased a 2022 TLX Type S and after a month of driving this car, it has brought a smile back to my face. The adaptive/double wishbone suspension is extremely WELL balanced. SH AWD is the BEST in class, torque vectoring is a TRUE mechanical feature that makes this thing corners better than that Ultimate Driving Brand, the LOOKS, OMG and with the Tiger Eye Pearl color, it attracts many inquisitive busy bees. Critics constantly compare these cars to the wrong German rivals. It should be in direct competition with BMW M340i, Audi S5 and MERC AMG C43 of course with Acura taking the advantage over pricing, reliability, and longevity. I live in North Georgia where typical driving encompasses curvy, twisty, and mountainy roads not tracking or drag racing. This car is much more fun in that category. On long road trips, even in the most aggressive driving mode the Type S WILL NOT beat you up like others. On my wish list, if Acura can take the underpowered, overrated, and overpriced PMC edition loose some pounds, add about 45 more ponies, heads up display along with an all-digital display I guarantee ALL automakers would go back to the drawing boards. Remember the 1991 NSX that made Ferrari go back and think things over? Come on Acura you introduced to us the FIRST Japanese luxury line, make your Brand undeniable like say Apple?

2021 Acura TLX and MDX wireless charger faulty
The iPhone 12 (all models) doesn’t work on wireless charger. Acura is aware but doing nothing to fix. In addition, Acura didn’t disclose this when I purchased.
