Used 2016 Acura TLX Sedan Consumer Reviews

2500 miles

This is a really good car. Very solid and enjoy driving. Best value for my dollar. I do think Acura should step up to the plate and turbo the engine on the 2.4 to compete with Lexus and Germans.

Deceiving

I had a v6 with very low mileage and moderate use . I got horrible fuel economy with moderate driving. Looks good from the outside but feels cheaper in the inside compared to similarly priced vehicles. And finally it’s not as reliable as you may think. Just because it’s a "Honda" doesn’t mean it’s reliable. Battery dead after only 3 years. Rust began to appear after 4 years even with regular rust treatment and being in a heated garage during winter. New motor and car noises every now and then. Crack when you turn the wheel after 4 years. Overall i do not recommend. You can get way better for the price.

Don't understand the poor reviews on this car?

This car is a dream to drive and if "your are alive" really fun too! With the 8 speed, it can be a real "hot rod". Once the cam and ignition advance at 5,000 RPM, it is hard to believe it is a four cylinder!!! It can hit 100 mph on on-ramps. . . how much more do you need? The "engine matching" rpm works great and always smooth at RPM's above 3,000. Extremely quite inside, great sound system, and a very luxurious feeling with the high quality leather seats. The drivers seat retract each time you enter. . make it so easy! The four wheel steering really makes cornering very stable and faster than normal, with confidence that you will stay there! For $28,000.(April 2016) I think it was the best buy out there!!!! I just put 315,000 "hard miles"(full acceleration most of the time") on a '97 Accord and am looking for this one to do 350,00 to 400,000 miles!!!(their advertisement said it is fun to drive a 4 cylinder that red lines @ 6,800 rpms and it is!!! UpDATE AT 32,000 Miles: I standby all of the above. . (Good Year tires do "squeal" on hard corners. .. ) Split screen is great from music. . shows the details at once) 50,000 Miles . . . Still just like new! I have no desire to have any other car! Honda really knows how to build a great car! 60.000 Miles. . . I believe if you covered all the name plates and specific designs, I don't think people could tell the difference between the TLX and similar BMW or Audi when driving it. It is a real sleeper! Grandmothers, keep you grand kids away from it. . because when they find out what the car can really do-hang on!!! 72000 -Still great -looking at the drivers seat and almost no wear!!! What a car!! 78,000 - Love the engine when it hits 5,000 RPM - - It forgets it is a 4 cylinder!!! 85,000 - Getting a lot of garage time, so still the great car that Honda makes!

A used TSX is better than a new TLX.

I have owned Acura cars for over 20 years and this one is the worst. Getting in and out is terrible as the reach to close the door is too far and the seats are too low. You can not see the front of the car so parking head-in is just guess work as you never know how close you are to the wall. The entertainment system is far too complicated and not easy to use. I never feel comfortable driving the car and wish I had obtained something else. I want my old TSX back. I really hate this mistake of a car. Every time I get in the car I hate it more than the last time. Worst car I ever had. Major mistake.
