Used 2006 Acura TL Sedan Consumer Reviews
I'm In Love With My Car
We bought this car as a "weekender" for leisure driving, and let me tell you, the weekend can't get here fast enough. This car leaves virtually nothing to be desired in the driveability, power, and handling departments for cars in this class. It handles curves like a dream. The more you push it, the tighter it seems to grip the asphalt. The term "fun to drive" is clearly an understatement for describing this machine.

Good car overall. Reliable. Good gas mileage for power. Power is good but not good enough. Horrible in snow!! Squeaking noises from interior once in a while. Good build overall.

GREAT car!
Bought my TL in November 2005. Was going to go with the BMW 325 or Lexus IS 250 because of AWD vs. FWD (snowy northeast). Wasn't an issue this year due to lack of snow, but even the few storms we had the car did just fine in the snow. For all of the luxury, power and great price, FWD vs. AWD should not be a issue for anyone with winter driving concerns! Had a few issues with scratches when I got the car - dealer took care of the problem right away. Heard a squeaking noise coming from the engine area a few weeks ago whenever I turned the wheels. Not sure what was going on but noise stopped. Service dept. checked it out right away and nothing found.
Best of the Best
This is our second TL and we have a bias for Honda/Acura and the TL in particular. Few other automobiles have the mix of luxury, quality, performance, value and style. The exterior of the car is distinctive with crisp body lines that create interesting shadow and shape covered in a flawless paint finish. Inside the 06 TL you find nothing less than top of the line leather seating, fine carpet and details you would only expect in a much more expensive German sedan. The ergonomics of the interior are excellent and seats are supportive. Power and handling of the car are excellent and above the rest of the class save for the BMW 330 with which the TL competes. The car is Best of the Best.
Best Car I Ever Bought.....!!
Previous to owning the TL I had a purchased new Jaguar XK8. While I miss the "sizzle" of the Jag, the Acura has it beat by a long shot in terms of comfort, style, performance, reliabililty, quality of workmanship, etc. The car does not break!
Love my TL
All it took was sitting inside my car and the beautiful interior... driving only sealed the deal. I didn't choose the navigational system, didn't feel the need to spend the money. Other than the tires on my car, I love it. The tires are not suited for the car and have a "flat spot" that causes the car to shutter at 50 mph until the tires are warmed up.
Acura has a winner!!
I purchased an Acura TL after owning a BMW 325. I was sure i was going to get another BMW but from the start of test driving the Acura TL I was sold. The TL's attention to interior detail is great it has metal and carbon fiber accents. The navigation has a touch screen and the car has interior blue lights. The drive is second to none when the TL's VTEC kicks in you better be holding on, it takes you to 160 mph with out hesitation, that's right I said 160 mph.If you want to own a winner buy an Acura TL, you won't regret your investment.
WOW! This isn't a BMW or Mercedes-Benz?
JUST...ONE...WORD...WOW! I've only had one type of car my whole life GERMAN! 7 Mercedes-Benz and 2 BMW 5-Series within my immediate family. This car has been the best car I've ever owned. Not driven, but owned. The whole package I got fully loaded for under $34,000! I test drove the 2006 BMW 530i and Mercedes-Benz E500 and didn't think twice before buying this Acura TL. The BMW and Mercedes cost nearly or more than twice as much for the same features the my Acura TL came with. Besides the fact that it's 3 times as reliable and much lower cost maintain. It drives very good too.
So Happy
I bought my 2006 TL in Nov 2005. I was at the Orlando car show and had thought about a lexus. I even went and test drove the lexus. After that test ride I felt the lexus looked too conservative for me. I was then off to the Acura dealership. 1 test drive is all it took & could not be happier!! Its sporty and rides great. I get compliments on the car all the time. I am anal about being clean so I even wipe the car down before it comes out of the garage to keep it with a new look. My love of music sounds great in the car also. Great sound system as well! Acura fan always in Orlando:)
ACURA TL - Best in its class
Just an all-round fun vehicle to drive. By far the best value in its class!
