  Best car Ive ever owned - 2003 Acura TL
  By johnwilliams - October 7 - 1:54 pm

  I bought my TL-S with 60K miles on it 2 years ago and love everything about it. Great power, really good handling, exterior style is head turning, very comfortable ride, decent gas mileage (if you can keep your foot of the fantastic accelerator), and while the interior style is simple all you have to do is put a little leather conditioner on the seats and it stays perfect. My seat heater (driver side) and light for the clock did break as did the radio control on the steering wheel but this is minor stuff. If maintained this thing will run for 250K miles + no question.

  Excellent car - 2003 Acura TL
  By bobn - September 27 - 10:00 am

  Hadnt planned on buying this car, but glad we did. Excellent value for the $$. Beautiful exterior and interior styling, much nicer-looking than Accord or Infinity. I am normally a German-car driver, but I think this car has an excellent mix of comfort, handling, smoothness, power, gas mileage, and all-around bang for the buck. We get much better HWY gas mileage than I expected (~28+ mpg). Very quiet ride. Feels & drives very safe & solid. Suspension eats up road bumps like nothing. Quiet smooth engine, but still growls when you step on the throttle!

  great car - 2003 Acura TL
  By paul/pls - September 21 - 10:00 am

  had it only a week. Researched a long time before i went with the Acura TL. If you are looking for a sports sedan test drive BMW. Acura TSX, Saab 9-3, Saburu turbo. The TL handles nicely, but does not have that heart pumping ride you might want in a sports sedan. However the TL is a solid touring car that does everything well

  Good Time To buy - 2003 Acura TL
  By Mikemc - September 21 - 10:00 am

  This car runs so nice and is so comfortable. I traded in a 2001 BMW 330i for this car and even though the sticker was $12,000 less for the Acura TL the ride is much smoother and quieter. With 2.9% financing and $1,800 of MSRP now was a great time for me to buy. With low interest financing and discounts off MSRP this car is actually cheaper than the 4 cylinder TSX.

  Wish I was a "Mecha"................ - 2003 Acura TL
  By Khushwant Jhaj - September 7 - 10:00 am

  If i was aMecahnical man then i would have married this car and would has done my best to produce babies. With no second thought this was my best decesion ever. This car more relible then any girl friend i eve had and more trustworthy too. I love the handling and speed. Believe or not i drove this flying souceser at the speed 120mph while driving on Highway 5. This is till now the best sedan for the price. If you are in the market for new Toyota Camery XLE of Infinity I35 or g series with all the option go for this and you will be more happy. This is luxury for free. Believe me this is right.

  TL-S Ride in LA - 2003 Acura TL
  By myhonda - September 7 - 10:00 am

  The value of the TL-S is unparalleled. As a rocket scientist, I can say that this vehicle is top notch technically and creature comfort- wise, dollar for dollar. I never drempt of spending more than $25k on a depreciating asset, but only this car convinced me otherwise. The acceleration is superb in sportshift or auto. It is comfortable for the largest of my guests. Average 20mpg in LA traffic. 5k miles so far. Will take on a roadtrip soon.

  An amazing car for the price!!!! - 2003 Acura TL
  By sk - September 2 - 10:00 am

  I still cant beleive what a great deal my Acura TL was. I almost bought a Honda Accord last year for about the same price as I paid for this car and this car has so much more. It is safe, sporty, handles well, the basic warranty is better than honda or toyota. The overall quality put into this car is great!

  2003 TL is a great drive. - 2003 Acura TL
  By FEVER - August 19 - 9:51 am

  I have owned my TL for 2 years and I have nothing but praise for it. The comfortable ride is most impressive as is its get up and go. This is a quality vehicle that gives you the comfort of a heavier vehicle but the ride of a sports car.

  Love my Type S - 2003 Acura TL
  By charveycmt - August 6 - 5:33 am

  This car has great value and is very fun to drive. It is the best luxury car for the money, after having extensively researched all the European models. About the only negative thing I can find is that the ride in the Type S is a little stiffer than your typical luxury vehicle, but when you buy a car with a faster, larger engine, you expect to have a stiffer suspension. I knew this before I bought it, and have never regretted it for a moment.

  Love this car - 2003 Acura TL
  By sandy - July 27 - 4:51 pm

  My only problem was early on when the vsa went crazy, and it took dealership a month to figure out what to do with the computer. Other than, this car has been perfect. Great handling and very peppy. I dont use premium gas, only plus, and that works fine. Have gotten as much as 33 mpg on the long hwy drives average about 23-24, which is terrific. Sound system is great and finish is lovely. The CD player can make you a little crazy until it unloads and loads thats the only flaw. Got new Michelins (and it costs a fortune with the S model) at 43,000 miles, and standard recommended maintenance so far, nothing extra. Highly recommend it in fact my husband bought a 2005 TL.
