Used 2006 Acura TL Consumer Reviews
Like New
An elderly lady had owned this vehicle until the second owner-seller bought it when it needed a new engine. It had been stolen and wrecked by a thief who didn't know how to drive a stick shift, hilarious actually, fully restored. It was in Like New condition exterior and exterior when we bought it.. Seller had replaced the engine, batteries, brakes, tires. Looks and drives like it just came off the New Car Lot.

Bang for the Buck
My last 4 cars were MBenz's with an 02 E55 as the car before the TL. I spent months trying to justify buying a 90K car that didnt do all the things this TL does. yes I miss the big V8 and rear wheel drive, but for 35K this car is awesome. I added the A spec kit which does help with the 18 inch rims and ground effects. Ride is great power is ok, still a little torque steer but not bad if I lay off it. The doors do rattle when the windows are down and the "auto shift" won't let you shift to 2nd so it sort of makes it a little less than true shifting. But again I don't believe there is a better car under 50K including the RL.

Great car
Have had this car for over a week now, has been really fun to drive, has tons of features and engine performance is great.
Best in Class
I checked out all the competition and concluded that the Acura TL offered the best bang for the buck. It is much roomier then the Lexus IS 350 and less expensive for comparative equipment. I enjoy the NAV system and use the blue tooth constantly. It's nice to keep your hands on the wheel and still control all the main features of the car. I would recommend this car to anyone wanting luxury with a sporty feel.
Just All Right
Love the car, with the exception of the interiror quality. After looking at several vechicles, I went with the Acura because I thought the car was fun to drive, looked great, and I liked the idea of an all-inclusive package. I understand this is considered a "luxury" vehicle, but I'm getting a little tired of spending $200+ every time I have to service the car. The TL is high maintenance, and very expensive to own, especially with the current gas prices. The gas milage is not great. In 10 months of ownership, I've spent $325 to replace 1 tire, then probably another $750 on scheduled maintenance. Great car, but be prepared to see your bank account take a hit! Not for the cost-cautious!
