2007 Acura TL type-S

Great car overall. Purchased new for $5K below MSRP. Very reliable but watch out for Bluetooth connection to cell phone. Known to actually kill battery by failing to disconnect properly. Continues searching for connection when you leave vehicle (24/7!). $375 to fix plus new battery! Engineered to go 300k miles with proper maintainence. Brembo brakes fantastic but pads AND rotors wear very quickly. Remember the $1,100 cost to change out timing belt and water pump at 105,000 miles or 7 years!

Great All Around Car

I have owned Honda/Acura products for over 10 years, so when it came time to replace my TSX, the TL was the logical choice. I looked at the 335i, G35, and IS 350. They are all great cars, but each one had a few annoying features. The TL Type-S has all the performance I need, with a great interior and proven Acura reliability. I have had the car for 2 weeks now, and I do not regret any part of my decision.

My husband purchased my used '07 Acura TL Type-S for me in September 2016. We hunted for months to find the perfect TL. It had 117,000 miles on it and was in tip top shape. Handles nicely, accelerates without hesitation. My only gripe is the dash. After owning the car for less than 6 months, deep cracks started appearing in the dash over the airbag. Now my luxury car looks a wreck on the inside. I contacted Acura and they did not have any concerns or solutions to my problem. I'm still driving the car and have put 20,000 miles on it since purchase. It's my daily driver and handles well in all types of weather; even deep Michigan snow. I will gladly get another Acura down the road because of the comfort, luxury and reliability that I have experienced with my Type S. I just wish Acura would stand behind the quality of the interior a little more. I cannot use my blue tooth due to a common fault in the system that runs the batteries down.

Tires and iPod connection

Just would like to address those that complain about tires not lasting: in a sport-sedan don't expect sticky tires that hold the road last very long. Long-lasting tires will spin when you drive. iPod: for all of you 2007 TL owners: the iPod connection is in the middle compartment under your elbow, well hidden, just look for it. Not a good place, but it's there.

I bought mine in April of 2013 (Type-S) from an Acura dealership. I actually traded in a 2011 Honda Accord that I was leasing. I went from a 2 year old car, to a 6 year old car, but I had always wanted a 3rd generation TL. It had 50k miles on it, and it had one owner who took care of it. Now, in October of 2019, I just hit 117k. I don't really drive far very much, so the mileage is still low/average for the model year. I really haven't had any major issues with the car at all. It's a solid machine. The only thing I've never been crazy about, is the fact that the sport suspension can make for a rough ride. In my area, we've got all kinds of potholes, bumps and other imperfections on our roadways unfortunately. When I'm on a smooth roadway, I have no problems. Between the suspension and low profile tires, I seem to feel every little bump and crack in the road. Other than that, I have no complaints.
