"This car is fun to drive. I bought it used a month ago to have a cheap car for commuting, but with a higher level of luxury. Boy did I upgrade my ride and increase the pleasure of my hour in the car everyday. Mine has high miles, but had a good service record. Everything works great and looks practically new. The engine is strong and the car is very reliable. I completely happy with the purchase."

"I owned my car for 4 years thank goodness no transmission problems but I'm thinking about getting rid of it before it happens. The brakes are very touchy. The car handles excellent. Faulty master cylinder switch caused all of my warnings light to come on in the car. I didn't believe the dealer when I had it checked out. Because the car still stopped very well. I replaced it because I was tired of seeing all the warning lights on in my instrument cluster. They all went when I replaced the master cylinder which is crazy. I drive my car less than 3k a year But I may sell because of the gremlins in the car also because I don't want the hassle of 2k transmission repair bill."

"Bought CPO in 2007 with 30k on it, 6-speed stick, NAV, integrated phone, the works. Really nice car, have had no issues whatsoever with it. Now have almost 90K on it, runs like a top. Very much recommend an Acura as a CPO purchase."

"I recently purchased a 2004 Acura TL in order to get better gas mileage, and to get better traction in snow situations with front wheel drive. The car does both things well. It gets about 25 to 26 MPG in city and highway mixed. The car has good front wheel drive traction. The car is attractive, comfortable and dependable. I give it 4 of 5 stars. If the car either was faster, and got better mileage and had edgier styling, it would get 5 stars from me. If it were larger and better styled, but had the same performance and gas mileage, then it would also get 5 stars from me. Pretty good car."

"I have an 04 TL Technology package that I purchased in 06. I knew the previous owner (my father, actually) and it was babied. I bought the car from him when his lease ran up around 45k miles and performed all of the regular maintenance. I really enjoy a few things about it - it looks great, the handling is pretty good and it's got good horsepower. All in all the car is great... besides a few big issues. I don't know if I got a lemon or what but this car has been nothing but problems in the last 3-4 years. Here's the list of what's gone wrong: - BAD ECU (Engine computer) in 2007 (replaced under emissions warranty) - 2x BAD Gas Pedal Potentiameter (sp?) in 2008 (replaced under emissions warranty but had to pay for a tow) - BAD Starter in 2009 ($600 terrible buzzing in radio after this service that they can't fix) - BAD Transmission in early 2010 (fixed under previous model's recall but still cost $2k) - BAD Starter in mid 2010 ($under warranty+tow+lost day of work) - Valve chatter (They can't figure it out) - BAD driver's side headlight in mid-2010 ($1000) - BAD Starter in early 2011 ($600+tow+lost day of work) - BAD Passenger side headlight in early 2011 ($1000) - I'm pretty sure the transmission is going to fail again soon. It's doing the same weird downshifting that it did before it failed the last time. Be prepared to pay out the NOSE for repairs when this car runs out of warranty. I have come to the conclusion that Acura parts are no better than Kia's. They just have a fancy emblem on them and an inflated price tag. Beware if you are buying a used Acura TL with more than 50,000 miles: you will probably experience some of these same repairs! In fact, it is likely that the person that traded in the car was faced with the same repairs and just decided to throw in the hat and get something else; much like I am prepared to do. It was nice not having a car payment but I need reliability and that is something this car does not offer."
