  • 05 TL a pleasure - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    This car can make any commute a pleasure. I drive 35 miles one way, I look forward to my ride since I bought this car. Smooth ride, tight handling, quiet, fast, blue tooth phone and audio are great. Avg gas mileage 25 mpg mostly highway. I wish I had the navigation it adds more versitility to the voice command. My only complaint is a few creaks and rattles in the interior come and go, cant figure why. If you buy this car get a radar detector you will need it.

  • Dream Car - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    I had been researching the Acura TL for 2 years before we purchased. I love the newer (2004& up) styling. That first caught my eye. Then I test drove one and realized it had a quiet ride and really had the power I have been wanting. This year at the Auto Show in Portland, my husband and I spent a lot of time at the Acura booth with the TL. After the show, we went and purchased our TL with the Navigation. The Navigation is such a treat, we will never get lost again. We are very happy with our TL and knowing it is a Consumers Digest Best Buy and one of the Top 10 most popular cars sold in America, its just the icing on the cake. We will enjoy it for many years. I give it 5 stars all then way

    My Acura TL comes equiped with everything a person needs: Navigation system, high performance tires, great passing capability and wonderful reliability, and last but not least, an XM satellite radio. I love my car.

  • I stopped shopping when I drove the TL! - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    I spent months searching reviews of hundreds of cars. I looked at the Infiniti G35 and the BMW 3 series. Once I drove the Acura TL and saw the luxury features firsthand, I was sold!

  • Awesome - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    This is the fifth Acura I have owned and by far the best vehicle I have ever owned or driven and I have driven many millions of miles over the last 50 years. At one time I drove over 50,000 miles per year, I now drive about 12,000/yr.

  • Gadget Guy loves the TL - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    Before buying I researched the TL, G35 and BMW 3 series. I chose the TL for the styling and tech features. Plus, everything came included for a very reasonable price. Sacrifice was in power and handling, but barely. Im no racecar driver, so for me, the TL has plenty of power to get out of a sticky situation. I am still very impressed with my TLs interior design. I love how even the dash is made of quality material, not molded plastic. The brushed steel and black carbon fiber style trim really makes for an impressive look. The back seats are plush and comfortable, but a tad tight for large people. The trunk is a bit small, but a fair trade-off for the body design.

  • After 8 months - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    After 8 months, I still very much enjoy this vehicle. The ride is much stiffer than the Accords I have owned but the handling is great. The tires are very soft to offset the stiffness and consequently will not last as long as one would like. Mileage is 21/29. Those who have a lead foot will get much less. Overall, a quality car and Im glad I made the move from Honda (owner for 28 years).

  • I Love My 2004 Acura TL!!!! - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    This vehicle is GREAT! Not only is it gorgeous, but comfortable, classy, and great on fuel. It heats up fast in the winter and cools down just as fast in the summer. I love the XM radio that came with the car. Its great. All my passengers love taking a ride in my TL! I would definitely lease another Acura! I am leasing it for 4 years. The people at Sprinfeild Acura are very curtious, and efficient. THANKS ACURA!!!!

  • Excellent car!! Total Package - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    This vehicle is amazing. I test drove one and feel in love with all the features this vehicle has to offer. The technology alone is amazing, but the handling and the sound system is precise and clear. The ride comfort is right on point. Very nice car!!!

  • A Great and Fun Sedan - 2005 Acura TL
    By -

    I bought this car based on a wide range of reviews and the Honda reputation - plus a series of test drives. I was in the market for a luxury / near luxury sedan that was fun to drive and economical. Predicted reliability and customer satisfaction were also factors. We tend to keep our cars for 8 years. The car has been terrific and exceeded my expectations. The handling is terrific, both acceleration and cornering, yet quiet and smooth (I have not had any of the rattles mentioned). The interior is comfortable and very well appointed, and sound system is terrific. It exudes confidence and quality.
