Overview & Reviews

Other than a new tire-pressure monitor and altered engine management (for reduced torque steer), the Acura TL is mechanically unchanged for 2006. As with all 2006 Acura cars, there is a longer powertrain warranty for the TL. It now provides six years/70,000 miles of protection. New SAE testing procedures have dropped the TL's horsepower rating from 270 to 258.

• Luxurious interior, long list of standard equipment, powerful V6 engine, slick-shifting six-speed manual, pleasant blend of ride comfort and fun, superb sound system.

  One Fine Vehicle - 2006 Acura TL
  By David J. - December 19 - 1:23 pm

  Im a hard to satisfy middle-aged male who grew up with performance cars of the 60s and 70s. Although so much more refined than my 70 Cougar (350 HP), 70 Nova SS (375 HP) and others, the TL gives me a little taste of what I used to know and love but with so much more refinement and luxury. The sounds of the V6 in the higher revs is really terrific. It sounds and pulls like a mid-size V8. I own very high-end home audio equipment & am quite satisfied with many quality DVD-A recordings on the factory system. The sound is far better than average. With well-mixed discs as source material, youll appreciate the 5.1 surround sound.

  A very nice car - 2006 Acura TL
  By AN - December 19 - 12:57 am

  I bought the car for the sole reason I wanted a car that was reliable & would last me a long time since Im the type to buy a car and drive it into the ground rather than lease it. I wanted something low maintenace and affordable. I did a lot of reseach into comparable makes such as the Infiniti G35, Volvo S60 and Lexus ES, and none could match the price for what you get with the TL. I didnt have to deal with option packages, everything I wanted was included standard for one low-price and it was under a brand that was known for reliability. Its both sporty enough where you can go cruising on a weekend yet, practical enough where you can run your daily errands, albeit in a bit more style.

  Great Car - 2006 Acura TL
  By great car - December 5 - 6:47 pm

  Have been a loyal Honda owner for over 7 years but wanted to move to something with some luxury and went to test drive a Acura TL. Found it to be a well-engineered vehicle will continue to purchase acura cars.

  TL is an Excellent Car - 2006 Acura TL
  By Joe R. - December 5 - 1:22 pm

  Hands down the most car for the money in this range. Fun to drive, fantastic design and terrific quality. Better than most more expensive cars in its class. My only complaint is that the door lock button doesnt go all the way into the door and is uncomfortable when I want to rest my arm on the door (such as with windows down, etc.). Sound system is excellent with HD surround sound, Bluetooth for phone is handy, and sportronic shifting makes driving fun again.

  Best I have Ever Owned!!! - 2006 Acura TL
  By Jeff Rooster - December 4 - 10:20 pm

  This car is great. Very quick, great handling. Very comfortable drivers seat. Great looking and great quality. I feel special when I drive it. I wish I knew that they were going to put the RL 3.5 in it. I would have waited 2 more months.

  Nice car - 2006 Acura TL
  By bjwestner - November 29 - 6:54 pm

  Very good car. Interior design is very nice. Price of the vehicle cannot be beat considering the options that you get. Navigation system is second to none. I have read that other owners got Bridgestone tires on their TL, mine came with nice Michelins. I have had no issues so far. The vehicle runs on 87 - its recommended that you put premium in but I do not and it runs fine.

  Awesome Acura TL! - 2006 Acura TL
  By Holly - November 25 - 8:24 am

  Ive always had V6 Honda Accords, loved them all, and was ready to buy a 2006 but couldnt find a good color combination. Moved to the Acura TL based on reputation, looks, and color combinations and Im so not sorry! It is a hot car - it looks good, has all the creature comforts, is great to drive, has more speed than Ill ever need (but love it!), and it is incredibly sturdy and safe. This car is everything awesome about an Accord, and so much more! The only sad thing is that the surround-sound stereo doesnt have much chance to perform because the music industry hasnt produced many surround-sound cds! Id definitely recommend this car for every reason.

  Love My TL - 2006 Acura TL
  By Steve P - November 10 - 11:40 am

  This is my 3rd Acura. Had an 03 TL, and 04 TSX. For overall performance including power as a big factor for me, the new TL gets my nod. Im a sucker for horsepower though. Love the fit and finish, smooth delivery of power, and well-engineered handling. A quiet cabin allows for a high-end listening experience with well-mixed DTS type DVDAs . Be careful what you buy, some of these high end discs sound no better than your average CD in the TL. Some reviewers have complained about a lack of bass. It is available, you just need to give the TL the proper source material. The TL is money well spent.

  2006 acura TL - 2006 Acura TL
  By cnn.com autos - November 8 - 1:51 pm

  I expected it to be quick and comfortable. It turned out to be both. I recently made a 2500 mile trip and it was excellent. I do not believe the 33 mpg listed by the onboard computer and premium fuel was a cost factor. I recommend it highly.

  1 Year Review - 2006 Acura TL
  By Car Man - November 4 - 3:43 pm

  After owning only European cars for the past 10 years (Audi, BMW, MB) I decided to give the Acura TL a chance. Although I was impressed by the lower cost, Ive realized that the extra cost goes into the details. After about a year of ownership, Ive noticed that the TL just cant match the attention to detail, high-speed performance, and material quality of German competitors (e.g., interior materials, ambient lighting inside, intelligent design in small details, etc.) I think every manfacturer has a competency, and the TL is relatively comfortable, luxurious, and performs relatively well, but doesnt excel like those offered by Euro car makers.
