  • 260 HP - Great Sports Sedan! - 2003 Acura TL
    By -

    The best built near luxury car value on the market. I have no complaints other than the engine needs to be “tweaked” a little by the dealer after a 5,000 mile burn in Car is definitely in the BMW class as far as I’m concerned, a lot better value and more affordable Car is comfortable, yet sporty, has great power and handling and is an excellent value for the money. If reliability, great performance, decent styling and good value are important – this is your car! The engine and transmission are finely tuned and work well together, the “S” type is definitely the way to go when you’re going to spend somewhere around $30/k anyway

    Bought it about a year ago. Just fell in love during the test drive itself -- excellent driver, very good road manners, good power, and loaded with features which makes it a "deal".

    Went from 1988 Suburban to Acura TL. Really enjoy performance and handling. Getting used to the 5-speed auto shift points as opposed to three. Engine is quiet and despite what some say, I find the stereo just fine. Looking forward to years of enjoyment.

  • 2003 TL is a Great Car! - 2003 Acura TL
    By -

    Excellent drivers car with fun sport-shift pseudo-manual transmission, nicely placed guages and controls. Interior space is good for family use (2 adults, 2 teens) and a sensible trunk. Engine has lots of pull even at low rpm and corners incredibly well. Good feedback from the steering wheel on road surface (how do they do this?). Better than the Volvo S80 (which costs much more) which was also being considered.

    GREAT CAR!!!

  • Good for the price range! - 2003 Acura TL
    By -

    I bought this off a lease return with 45K miles on it a year ago. Now I have 57K miles. Overall Im happy with the car. I have the Aegean Blue, with navi. Looks pretty gangsta, plus nobody where I live has an Acura, so I stand out. But I do notice that the tranny is shifting a bit harder now and is starting to have a bit of trouble picking appropriate gear between 40-50 mph. But then again, I think Im due for a transmission fluid service at 60K, so it may resolve itself after that service.

    We took this car on an extented trip and had a very enjoyable drive. The car is fast and the fuel mileage was great. We could have gotten speeding tickets several times, and we are senior citizens.

  • Great value luxury sedan - 2003 Acura TL
    By -

    This is one of the best values in the luxury sedan class. Classy ride, incredible reliability and low price. Couldnt find this class of vehicle at the same price -- most luxury cars were much more and other similar priced cars were not as refined.

    Performs great. Handles well, gas mileage is adequate (but uses highest octane) and the car has a nice sporty appearance. I drive this car to work daily.
