  Bitter sweet - 2005 Acura TL
  By evanthemack - March 21 - 9:39 pm

  The TL is a nice car with great design and performance. The acceleration is powerful but you must get it over 4000 rpm into the VTEC range. The engine whines and the instant you hit 4000 and deap throaty growls comes out. Its hangeling is good (for a FWD). I have had a few problems with the car: seized wheel bearing, broken power window, bent rim, and rattles galore.

  Good car that lacks soul - 2005 Acura TL
  By JDRTL - March 17 - 2:25 pm

  This car does everything well but is a very dull driving experience (if anyone cares about that). I do care about that and unloaded this car after two years and got a German make which is more to my liking. I really wish I would have gotten the manual transmission as the automatic is incredibly un-sporty. It is a great value as everything is standard except the navigation system (which I highly recommend). Although it was only in once for an unscheduled repair, the car was getting creaky and rattling after 30,000 miles.

  Best value in class - 2005 Acura TL
  By tngm - March 8 - 12:53 pm

  The combination of speed, comfort, handling, luxury and features is a true marvel at less than $40K. The BMW 3/5 series handles better but falls short in every other category. The Infinity G35 is quicker but doesnt have the build quality and falls far short in all other categories. The Lexus is for those that want total isolation from the road and cant remotely be considered a "drivers car". I purchased mine on the way to the BMW dealership to by a 330!

  No Comparison - 2005 Acura TL
  By Ray - February 25 - 4:40 pm

  I got this car about 3 weeks ago and I love it. I was in between the Infiniti G35 and the TL. There is no comparison. The TL is great to drive. The interior is amazing. The bluetooth, navigation, and sound system are all great.

  Looks good - 2005 Acura TL
  By Looks good - February 19 - 5:58 pm

  Traded a SUV for this after owning BMW 3 and 5 series. I cant wait to get rid of this car. It looks good, but rattles and is very noisy. Not a fan of Japanese cars or front wheel drive. If you want looks, economy then this is for you. If you want performance go elsewhere.

  Fun and afforadable - 2005 Acura TL
  By Josh B - February 16 - 7:20 pm

  Excellent cornering and handling, like it better then some BMW and VW I have driven. Nice interior for price shocked by all the standard features, so many gadgets still finding new things on it everyday

  Perfect Size - 2005 Acura TL
  By Rick Meltzer - February 13 - 3:00 am

  I waited for years to find a mid-size car that had the features and handling that I wanted without being way out of my price range. I quickly fell in love with the TL and after 11 months of ownership I still love to drive this car.

  Good Value - 2005 Acura TL
  By jbarker007 - February 4 - 12:23 pm

  I decided to go back to the Honda line of cars, felt they were a better value than others. I am coming from a 99 Lexus ES 300, loved the car, but wanted something a little sportier. It took a little while to get used to the stiffer ride, but I have now adjusted and am having a great experience. I test drove the MB E320 before this car, and better sense came over me. Give me the TL and $20K cash any day. The Acura has a tight feel and great get up and go. I feel it is one of the better looking cars on the market, and the upkeep should be more cost effective than the other brands. Looking forward to many years with this car.

  Fun to drive! Lots of high end torque makes expressways a blast!
