Over all this is a great car. There were a few problems I had with it early on after only one year, the transmission died out, but from my understanding it was known problem, and they fixed it. The only problem I had with this was they gave me a little cheap rental car during the 2 weeks it took to fix it, they stuck me in a little neon, not something I would expect, especially after only 1 year, with a higher end car like this. But I still love the car, its fast, fun to drive, a great deal. Their service just needs a little work.

An Excellent Value

I test drove the Audi 1.8T and Audi S4, BMW 3 series, Nissan Maxima, Infinity, Lexus ES and IS 400, and a few other models. Not until I test drove the Acura 3.2TL did I realize it was such a terrific car. It was superior in handling, ride comfort, power (only the 5-speed Audi S4 model felt quicker and more powerful- -even the higher horsepower Nissan did have the sense of modest power of the Acura) and all-around quality. Of note, the stock Bose stereo is of superior quality and the cabin of excellent acoutics, relative to the above mentioned models. I recommend this vehicle without reservation.

We bought my wife's 3.2 Type S in 2001 so we have had it a while. After over 30k miles it hasn't had to be repaired for anything. The main thing I hate is it is hard not to get a ticket in this car because it goes to fast and makes you try to take turns faster.

I looked at the BMW 330,325,M-B c320,lexus IS,ES,GS, and Infinti G35 and this baby has better quality, engine, and cooler styling than the rest. The TL is best bang for the buck.
