The acura-tl.com site is down in order to expand . I probably shouldn't say anything negative though, they'll probably say the site is faster and cost them less to maintain than ours !!!

their forum is down but that doesn't mean the cars are like that (well sometimes).

Just hope that none of the trolls (the few) on their board will come over here and mess around like some other forums before

Are you guys envious of us? Because it seems like you guys lurk around our board a lot to know that it's down and then to post it on your board about it. Can we say "stalker"?

C'mon guys, this is a little childish.

So what would be your reason for visiting other boards???

You can get off your high horse now. I visit other forums too so don't feel special.

The last time I checked, so was Acura's. But actually I was led there when one of your members made some ridiculous claim that a TLS would smoke a GS430, and one of the members on our board (and also a member of the TL board) defended it and gave a link to the site.

Why should I feel special that you're here, I'm the one that owns a Lexus.

Real mature response here. Big freaking deal if you own a lexus. Now if you own a lamborghini or ferrari then you can talk but a lexus, please.

Honestly, why do you even come on here ?! You have no appreciation for the car, you're obviously not an aficionado of Lexus, even your photo isn't a Lexus, so why do you bother coming here, other than to troll ??!! Just because it's a public forum, who here wants to listen to you spout about what Lexus isn't ??!! What started as a simple joke that everyone BUT you got, has become what you consider a personal attack on Acura, so please don't talk about being mature if you can't take a joke. Do us all a favor and go back to the TL forum, whenever it goes up.

How am I a troll here? A few of the guys on here knows me and they know I am not a troll. I have NEVER once bashed on your car, why, because like I stated before in an earlier thread, my next car is going to be a GS430 or M5/540i. I am a car enthusiasts who enjoys all cars. Just because I don't have a lexus yet I can't be on this board? So this means that ONLY lexus owners can be on this board? I don't think so.

If you don't want to listen to me then why respond back?

I did take this as a joke but then it got personal. Just like every other car enthusiasts, I will defend my car. Like you said before, the reason you came to our board was to see one of your people defend the GS. I have no problem with that. It's good to have different opinions sometimes.

FYI, the TL site is back up but I still surf other forums too. I bet you surf around too. C'mon just admit it.
