So far So Good

The car has met the majority of our needs. Super smooth and super quiet going down the road. Plenty of legroom for my boys as I am 6?3 and they are approaching 6?. The only two drawbacks we have found with the car are no rear charging outlets and I was surprised not to find an automatic trunk close feature. These may sound petty, but with all the tech my family carries around front chargers just don?t cut it anymore and it?s so nice with an arm full of gear to push a button and go on the trunk. Aside from those, we are really pleased with the car. (2016 TLX SH-AWD Advance)

I love my TLX

Over the past 15 years, Im on my third Acura, I'v never been disappointed and though I love checking out other vehicles, I just keep coming back to the Acura. The 2016 TLX is a great car. I did get all the bells and whistles this time around. The only thing I'm disappointed with is the auto steering. It works for about a minute then flashes steering required and cuts off. I'm hoping newer models will at least recognize when the road is straight that it will not cut off. Overall, It's a wonderful car.

I love my TLX

I absolutely love the features on the a\Acura TLX. It is easy to drive, integration with Bluetooth, Pandora, and my 3,000 contacts were the seller for me. It is very comfortable for the long commutes i do for my job in sales. The exterior is very sporty and attractive.

Luxury Ride without the Price Tag

In my opinion, the Best Value in its category. Yes it's a Honda but with Better everything. Car is so quiet, handles extremely well, Tech Pkg is Crush! Too many features to mention & well worth the price. Big plus is the low cost of maintenance vs other makes in its category. Do your homework, Best Buy all around.

Great Value for what it is

I have owned the TLX for about a year now sitting with 5,168 miles. The vehicle is very sporty and quite comfortable only being held back by a slow transmission. The first few gears can be a mystery sometimes.

Go with the 4banger

The TLX is a wonderful car. Sleek and sexy and makes my wallet happy. The 4 cylinder engine is the one to go with. It's quick peppy and likes to rev.

Love this car!

I've owned several BMWs and an Infinity. Hands down, I prefer the Acura TLX. I'm only selling it because I'm relocating to NYC and don't need a car any longer.
