Good fuel economy paired with good performance
Great car so far. Nice and responsive, yes the fuel economy is pretty good as well. Pretty roomy too, and I am 6'5". Just a great all around car at a great price. Sure maybe the finish is not like that of BMW or Mercedes, but is more than good enough for me at this price point. Much more room than a 3-series BMW, wider, 4 wheel steering is nice, and repairs are just so much more limited than the German cars. Wonderful resale value with Acura as well. After driving it for 15K miles, zero recalls and repairs required.

Stop reading online and go buy an Acura TLX!
We cross shopped against just about every other mid-size sedan. Almost bought a 16' Maxima, but glad we didn't. This is seriously the nicest car my wife and I have ever owned, and we've owned some very nice fully loaded vehicles, we just love it! We got the 2.4l powertrain with 8 speed automatic and Tech Pkg in Blue Pearl and Cashmere interior. Beautiful color combo IMO. This thing is really surprisingly fun to drive with just a little 4 banger engine. Pop it into Sport+ and hang on! Lots of fun factor with this car. I was initially overwhelmed and blown away with the Tech Pkg, just too many features to play with and learn about. The two screens up front was a great idea and perfectly executed by Acura, extremely functional and pleasing to the eye. ILS sound system rocks! This car is just about perfect in every way, we love it. Do yourself a favor and go test drive one, you'll want to buy it. I would definitely recommend opting for the Tech Pkg. Don't feel like you need the V6, the 2.4l engine has plenty of pep in normal driving mode. Sport+ mode is crazy fun. Also, after reading other negative reviews about the 9 speed ZF trans V6 powertrain I'm glad we got the little 4 cylinder 8 speed!

Test drove the TLX
In the market for a new car & recently test drove the TLX. I came away very impressed with the cars quality, comfort, driving dynamics and most importantly value. Top of the line TLX sh-awd with Advance Package is $44,595. I test drove the Mercedes C300 & C400, Bmw 328i & 335i, Audi A4 2.0T & S4. all great cars but in the end I chose the TLX because it's packed with technology, great reputation for reliability and cost's $5,000 to $15,000 cheaper then any of it's competition when fully equipped with the same feature content. A no brainier for me!
Great car when it works!
This is my 2nd Acura and my 5th purchase in the Honda family. I want so much to love this car - it’s sporty and fun to drive, and the seats are so comfortable! It’s interior is pretty and it has a ton of options that I love. But all of that falls short when the car just won’t drive despite my diligence in servicing. At 30k miles in and after multiple transmission software updates, I had to completely replace the transmission. I have an undiagnosed electrical issue that sometimes results in the car not recognizing my keys, not turning on, arbitrarily disabling my garage door openers, and generating a buzzing noise when I use the touch screen system that makes me fear I’m going to be shocked. The navigation system is so convoluted that you can’t adjust your air conditioning or radio until it’s fully booted and the seals on my back doors have been replaced multiple times. Because of the massive recall on their transmissions, the voluntary extension of warranty to 10 years, a lawsuit over the transmissions and some really terrible critic reviews, the car has depreciated so much that I’d have to pay someone to take it off my hands. And I just got a call for the latest if recall work - a fuel pump control. I absolutely loved my MDX but I wouldn’t wish this TLX on anyone.
