THE CARS BUTTERY SMOOTH V6 IS A MONSTER. RIGHT AFTER I TEST DROVE THIS CAR, I NEW THAT I HAD TO HAVE IT. IT HAS GREAT LOOKS WITH A ENGINE THAT WILL KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF. I TEST DROVE THE G-35, NISSAN ALTIMA, VW PASSAT, AND CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT FOR THE MONEY YOU CAN'T BEAT IT. THE FACT THAT EVERYTHING WAS STANDARD REALLY MADE IT APPEALING. THE CABIN AND TRUNK ARE VERY SPACIOUS. THE ENGINE REACTS VERY WELL. I'LL BE DRIVING ALONG AND BEFORE I KNOW IT I'M CRUISING AT 80MPH WITH LITTLE EFFORT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO ANYONE WHO IS IN THE MARKET FOR A SPORTS LUXURY SEDAN.

I love my TL-S; just had it on a 800 mile road trip and it performed well, thumbs down on the MPG, but I didn't purchase it for MPG, either. Mine is black w/ gold trim and pinstripes,added shiny chrome whls. I enjoy driving it, also tested a new Maxima,,,didn't even rethink it....TL-S was for me!

I purchased my Acura TL/S as a replacement for my Nissan Maxima. The Acura handles better and has more "umph" than the Nissan. I don't think I would have been as happy if I had purchased the base model 3.2 TL, however the "S" gives extra kick and also keeps the driver in a more drivable position to negotiate those things that are unexepected in Atlanta driving. I will keep this car for some time and would like to see what Acura comes dreams up in the next few years for those baby boomers who require 4 doors, but appreciate sports-car-like- handeling.

Overpriced HONDA

This car is a pony in a horserace. The advertised 260hp does not appear unless you floor the gas pedel. There is little or no torque, actually my mothers camry has more bottem end in normal driving. The ride is very rough an unrefined causing just about everything to rattle. The interior is cheap and is a carryover from a $16K Honda Accord with splashes of leather. DON'T buy it...get the loaded Honda Accord if you are in this market.

I have onwed many luxury cars (BMW 5 and 7 series). This car is by far the most fun to drive and the looks are underated . Have been "stopped" many times with comliments about the cars "look". The engine is a jewel. 260 HP and buries the BMW 3 series. BMW overated, smallish and overpriced.
