I LOVE THIS CAR!!

2006 Acura TL 4dr Sedan w/Nav System (3.2L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I wanted a new car, didn't need it but I wanted one. I had to choose between several cars and I chose this one because of all of the things it came with. If you don't like a sports car and you want something practical then, purchase a Honda or Toyota. I'm a single mother and my daughter just loves talking to this car and playing with the navigation system.

Favorite Features

Navigation system, leather, heated seats, voice activation and the performance tires. There are so many to list but so far, I enjoy this ride after having it for only 6 days.

Suggested Improvements

I haven't had this car long enough to comment on it yet.

Not Too Shabby

2006 Acura TL 4dr Sedan w/Nav System (3.2L 6cyl 5A)

Review

Have owned for two months. I'm used to sports cars (MBZ, Porsche 911, Infiniti G-35) but having a baby so needed something more "family" like. It's a bit underpowered but has decent pickup - mileage is lacking - handling is pretty smooth but not excellent. So far, so good.

Favorite Features

BlueTooth outstanding. Voice commands outstanding. Touch Nav cannot be beat, did not find any better. Nice design. Trunk space is nice.

Suggested Improvements

The audio system is atrocious, absolutely atrocious. Other than that, it's great. Back seat should fold down. More horsepower. Tighter steering.

Review

My better half needed a new vehicle. She didn't want to spend over 30K. My only condition was that it have a Nav system. After looking around and pricing everything out there, nothing could beat the value vs price of the TL. Even if purchased at MSRP you are getting a great vehicle with tons of great features.

Favorite Features

Power seats, heated mirrors/seats. Excellent surround sound/Dolby 5.1 audio system.

Suggested Improvements

Seatbelts and front seats need to be spaced out further, a bit too tight in buckling up and pulling on seat belts now. Blinking front/rear side markers.

2006 Acura TL 4dr Sedan w/Performance Tires, Nav System (3.2L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I bought this car in October of 06. Fun to drive and fast! I love the way the car handles and a very quite ride. The navigation is really nice. The exterior and interior are sporty. I am 6'3" and I am comfortable. Gas mileage is great.

Favorite Features

Fun to drive, quite and fast. Sporty look.

Suggested Improvements

I really do not think the stereo is that great. It sounds good but not as great as my Bose system in my Altima. Need fog lights.

It's Only A Car!

Review

Nice to drive and own but fuel economy for heavy footed people like me doesn't go too well with this car! V6 is great but you pay for what you get. Overall good, quality vehicle.

Favorite Features

Good comfortable ride and good quality sound from either CD, radio or XM satellite.

Suggested Improvements

Better fuel economy!

Good, but not perfect

Review

See pros and cons below...

Favorite Features

Interior appearance. Engine responsiveness. Navigation system overall. Climate control system.

Suggested Improvements

Hard to find all stores of a given name in the navi (worse than using a phone book). Don't like the clutch engagement height. Stereo only good for very low volumes -- weak for even moderately loud music (my 1997 Subaru factory unit sounded much better). Steering not great for highway cruising.

Excellent Value Near Luxury/Sport Sedan

Vehicle

2006 Acura TL 4dr Sedan (3.2L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I shopped several cars within the luxury and near luxury class. I can break the survey down four ways: Price Dependent, Price Independent, Performance Real World and Performance All Out: Price Dependent: Excellent Price Independent: Very Good Performance Real World: Excellent Performance All Out: Very Good Roll in resale value and maintenence, and the TL should be a "must drive" for anyone shopping in this class.

Favorite Features

Interior comfort, features and roominess, stereo system/blue tooth, engine performance

Suggested Improvements

All-wheel drive option, paddle shifting option for automatic

Review

Truly the deal of the year! The TL was recommended and I could tell immediately that based on other evals and recommendations that this was the car to check out. I bought it and love every minute I drive it.

Favorite Features

Navigation system, audio surround, telephone capability, and it just goes on and on.

Best Bang for the Luxury Buck

Vehicle

2006 Acura TL 4dr Sedan (3.2L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I bought the 2006 model as a "left over." Can't wait to drive it every time. Performance is outstanding as is its handling. The interior is roomy and the steering has a very nice feel to it. The car hugs the road, especially around courners. Interior layout is very ergonomic. The quality of the leather is excellent and the body style is very eye-catching.

Favorite Features

Body style, impeccable fit & finish (both inside and out), acceleration, quiet cabin, handling, drive-by-wire throttle system, bluetooth phone, blue backlit gauges, two-tone interior with simulated woodgrain (parchment interior color), rim style (for 2006), etc., etc.

Suggested Improvements

Some already made for 2007 model - blinkers on outside mirror, data display in the center of console (under the speedometer instead of under the gas gauge off to the side) and white/red combo tail lights (such as those found on the 2002 & 2003 year's previous design).

Review

I was in a state of confusion. I was looking for a new vehicle. After my research, I was so impressed with the TL styling. After test driving, I fell in love with the TL. The power, the styling both interior and exterior was to my liking. Also the options I wanted were standard on the TL. After purchasing the TL, I turn many heads. The audio system rivals most luxury cars.The hands free link is incredible. Thank you Acura for building a sports sedan second to none. I am a proud owner!

Favorite Features

Audio system, handsfree link.

Suggested Improvements

Turning radius... my wife's 2003 Expedition has a better turning radius than my 2006 TL.
