2018 Acura TLX SH-AWD 4dr Sedan AWD w/Advance Package (3.5L 6cyl 9A)

We’ve all heard / seen commercials urging comparison to competitive products “costing thousands of dollars more” .... well the TLX AWD V-6 w the Advance package truly offers a fully loaded car for thousands less than other mid-size premium cars. (In some cases for many, many thousands less.). Coupled w advanced safety and tech features, the car provides a smooth, comfortable and very quiet ride ... almost no wind or road / tire noise. The seats are very comfortable and the Advance package offers a driver’s power seat extension feature. For a taller guy that’s a much appreciated feature. My only nicks per se are the back seat leg room is a bit tight, trunk springs could be a bit stronger and the 9-speed trans is not as silky smooth as my previous car ( Audi A6). That said, the V6 AWD provides plenty of power and confident handling. The car is tight and feels solid. At 75mph the engine / trans are only turning 1,500 rpm! And, Acura finally dumped the beak grill got a modern, attractive and premium looking grill for the car making it a great looking car. When considering the price ($43,200 after Acura rebate) advanced safety, tech features and build quality this car is an outstanding value.

It's been said before: The TLX has been greatly under-rated by a lot of the reviewers. I suspect a certain bias by them in the direction of "snob appeal" as though that was a ultimate criteria for car ownership, as opposed to high quality, dependability, and general satisfaction. I would put the Acura TLX alongside any of the cars in its type and class. This is my second Acura, after owning several Honda Accords earlier. The earlier Acura was a 3.5RL (2004), and I would say the TLX (and the TL before that) is a better choice for a whole lot of reasons. For one, the RL (now RLX) is a fine car but the new vehicle price of some $20,000 to $25,000 above a TLX does not deliver that much more value in proportion. The TLX has all the features, technology, choice of engines, etc. that anyone really needs. Feature for feature the TLX is a far greater value, overall. As a "sport sedan", it combines the best in top-of-the-line value, with ease of driving, snappy pickup on the freeway, and much more.

2019 Acura TLX SH-AWD A-Spec 4dr Sedan AWD (3.5L 6cyl 9A)

We have been a Honda family for the past two decades. We are now on our second Acura. Leased a 2019 A-Spec V6 AWD. Great looks and comfort until you hit 65 plus. The car begins to shake. The dealer has replaced the tires and front axles. The problem still exists, you literally shake driving down the freeway. Acura calls this a 'normal characteristic" of the car. I did research and there appears to be an issue with the subframe. Acura is turning their head on the many consumers that have this issue. My advice, stay clear until they remedy the issue. I am now stuck with a hefty payment for the next 32 months. Learn from my mistake and go in a different direction there are better choices for the money.

I've owned this car for over two years now. I'll be honest: It is one of the best sedans I have ever owned. I have the 2.4L V-4 with the tech Package, and the car maneuvers amazingly!!! I've gotten plenty of looks driving around the car and stopped just to ask about it. But be warned... I have had nothing but issues with the proximity sensor on the front. I am not sure if it's an electrical system (battery has failed/leaked twice on me now) or if it's mechanical. Regardless, when the proximity sensor has kicked in, my brake pedal stays down and the vehicle starts to sound like it's about to turn off. This has happened multiple times and have barely missed hitting vehicles as the pedal is soft. Very dangerous!!!!! The funny thing is that I was literally 3 - 5 car lengths driving normal (no speeding) and the sensor kicks in to stop. WTH!!! Car is back at dealership as I write this review. I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but be careful. Can be very scary when it happens. I will pursue to end my lease if they are unable to fix the issue.

On a scale 1-5, I give this car a 4.5. The vehicle overall performs remarkable well. The new exterior body is what allures you, while all of this safety and creature comforts surround you and keep hold on to your every selfish desire and at a price point that is even more impressive. The interior is an extension of you, ergonomically adept and comfortable with a few array of technological features that any respectable geek would approve of. While there was a slight hint of road noise, it has an acceptable ride, but not as smooth a ride as I would expect and the GPS system that would fair better for the driver if it was more user friendly, but overall a very smart design, well thought out and fun to drive and look at. You cannot go wrong with the car at this price range against any other car in its class. I can see myself enjoying this car for years to come and so could you.
