2009 RL

Weirdly I can live with the legionnaire's shield on the new RL.

In the rear I don't like the lip-like treatment on the trunk edge but otherwise its alright. Kind of generic though.

3.7L V6, 300hp/271tq.

Kind of crappy mileage at 16/22mpg US (14.7 / 10.7).

Interior looks unchanged I believe?

No idea about features but it looks like nothing more than a reskin + updated engine.

Now if only the new TL wasn't ugly....

That is exactly what it is.

The next generation should be coming in 2-3 years.
Rumors say A8/7 series/S class sizing with 300HP V6/ 400HP V8 options.

Hey Wetson, how do you like your TL? I'm in the final stages of leasing one. Thanks!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.  Not one complaint.  None zero.... It's a great car and I enjoy driving it every day.  Congrats! You're going to love it.  I'm VERY happy I got it.
