Fantastic car

The Acura TL is a sleek and subtle performer. It responds with confidence to any driving situation. The steering is quick and precise. The engine and transmission are both powerful and smooth. The TL combines luxury and performance in a car with a quiet sophistication that belies a car that has the alter-ego of a go-cart. It's simply a blast to drive.

Great car and handling.

Considered many other vehicles, but best handling and performance for $40,000 out there. SH AWD is really super. The Technology package works great especially navigation and with 12 gigs records all your CDs automatically.

Perfectly balanced between beauty and braun

This car is the best looking car in its class. The 3.7 V-Tech engine delivers while the premium leather seats keep you firmly in place within the cabin that seems more like the cockpit of a fighter jet than a mid-sized sport sedan. The AWD (All Wheel Drive) suspension keeps you firmly glued to the road giving you unparalleled handling capabilities in any type of road condition. This vehicle is hands-down demonstrates the quality of performance, comfort, and security that you would expect from cars costing 2-3 times as much.

Enjoyable to drive!

This car meets all our needs and then some. It did pull to the right on the test drive and the dealership wanted to adjust/fix the alignment before we take delivery. Very impressed!

It’s an Acura

Had a 2008 TL for 10 years and 271k miles, then hit a deer. Read all the reviews and found the Acura TL 2012 SH-AWD to be the perfect replacement vehicle. It is just the right size for high mileage driving!! Not the best gas mileage for around town driving but wonderful for the interstates. Expect the odometer to reach 300k or more!
