Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition: Features & Performance Specs

Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition: Overview of a Discontinued Performance Sedan
- The TLX Type S PMC Edition was a limited edition of 350 units that arrived in 2023 and left the same year.
- The "PMC" designation shows that it was built by hand alongside the Acura NSX supercar in the brand's Performance Manufacturing Center.
- Upgrades include several real carbon-fiber interior and exterior enhancements, Pirelli® P-Zero™ tires, NSX-based wheels, exclusive paint options, and a serialized interior plaque, among others.
- While a very rare handcrafted car that's now only available as a used model, the thrilling engine specs of the TLX Type S PMC Edition can be harnessed in the 2025 Acura TLX Type S.
While the 2025 Acura sedans are exciting, the 2023 Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition is the ultimate pre-owned model and has no parallel in today's lineup. Namely, that's because it was handcrafted in the USA by NSX Master Technicians at the Acura brand's Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC).
Only 100 units were made in each of the three core colors (Curva Red, 130R White, and Long Beach Blue Pearl), and just 50 were built in Gotham Gray. So, when you find one of these dream cars used, act fast. See the details below, and contact Phil Smith Acura to inquire about our available inventory.

Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition Specs
The Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition separates itself from the standard TLX model as a limited-edition variant built by hand and filled with exclusive enhancements. Its performance centers around a 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6, popularized as the "TLX Type S engine," paired with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission.
The Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition's turbo V-6 powertrain generates 355 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque routed to all four wheels via the automaker's highly advanced rear-biased Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD).
The Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition 0-60 mph time, as a result of the four-wheel grip and turbo power, is a thrilling 5.1-second run.1
Alongside the stunning acceleration, a high-performance chassis and sport-tuned Adaptive Damper System further enhance the on-demand adrenaline. NSX-inspired Y-spoke 20-inch lightweight wheels wrapped in Pirelli® P-Zero™ summer performance tires work together with the SH-AWD system to generate incredible grip and cornering control while also looking undeniably stylish.
In essence, the Acura TLX Type S PMC Edition is the ultimate pre-owned Acura TLX Type S, adding a level of quality and precision made possible by its birthplace, the Performance Manufacturing Center.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a TLX Type S and PMC?
The TLX Type S and TLX Type S PMC Edition are the same cars at their core, but the PMC version is a special limited-edition upgrade from 2023. Only 350 TLX Type S PMC models were made, and all included exclusive enhancements like carbon-fiber interior trim, NSX-inspired wheels, and more. The NSX inspiration is pertinent because the PMC Edition was indeed built alongside that supercar.
What is the Acura TLX PMC Edition?
The Acura TLX PMC Edition is an exclusive model made in 2023. Only 350 were built, and all were made in the same factory (Performance Manufacturing Center, hence "PMC" in the name) as the Acura NSX supercar. Details of this sedan, such as the wheels and paint options, are exclusive and shared only with that NSX supercar. Other upgrades include a slew of carbon-fiber pieces and stylish exterior enhancements.
How many TLX PMC editions were made?
Only 350 units of the 2023 TLX Type S PMC Edition were made. Meanwhile, 145,655 new Acura vehicles were sold in America in 2023. Averaging that figure over the entire year, we can estimate that 399 new Acura vehicles were sold per day in the USA. The entire TLX Type S PMC Edition sedan production run, therefore, was smaller than a day's worth of American new Acura vehicle sales.
Will there be a 2025 Acura TLX PMC Edition?
No, the TLX Type S PMC Edition was a one-year release that came and went in 2023. For 2025, the TLX Type S remains, but the PMC Edition does not. While you can't get the PMC Edition's NSX wheels or paint in a 2025 TLX Type S, you'll still get the same 355-horsepower wave of force throwing you back into your seat as you press the gas pedal.
