95% excellent/5% terrible

My TL is an excellent vehicle, it looks good, handles good, and seems to be worth the $$. However, Acura continues to put the crappiest tires ever to be placed upon a "sport" or "near luxury" vehicle. The Bridgestone EL42 Turanza's are not worthy of being placed on a Kia, never mind the TL. It ruins the experience, and I would prob not buy another Acura unless they offered Michelins or equivalent as OEMs. The ride is noisy and takes about 15 mins of driving to straighten out the flat spots in the AM. Also, Acura has an agreement with Bridgestone that prevents them from replacing your tires with Michelins under warranty!

i love the car. For the price, i think this is the best buy! I'm getting 22-24 mpg, in city. the Audio stsyem is fablus, but the woofer makes a rattling noice when its played in full bass.Aslo one issue that i found is the wind noice inside, even when all the windows are closed. so i cant say the car is that quite! other than that..every thing is great
