Overview & Reviews

The TL has been completely redesigned for 2004. A 270-horsepower V6 is standard, and both a six-speed manual and a five-speed automatic transmission are available. The level of luxury inside the cabin is up, and driving dynamics are better than ever.

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

  Great car overall - 2004 Acura TL
  By Steve1010 - August 4 - 10:00 am

  Ive had this car for a few weeks. It looks beautiful inside and out. The engine is smooth and the cabin is quiet. The materials used seem to be very high in quality...which kind of confuses me because there are so many creaking noises and rattling. This car would be perfect if not for the annoying little cracks and pops coming from different places. In my opinion, these are only minor fit and finish issues, although the noises distract me from enjoying the ride sometimes. As far as the amenities, I love the navigation system. It is extremely user-friendly, and the screen is huge! This is a great car overall.

  All-Around Champ! - 2004 Acura TL
  By Stephen Caton - July 30 - 10:00 am

  I am an admitted car nut so when it was time to buy, I did major research. I started out with a pretty big list of $35k and under candidates but quickly narrowed the group to the Acura TL, the Infiniti G35, the Nissan Maxima, the Audi A4 and BMW 325. While the Audi and Infiniti are very nice and the Maxima is a lot of car for the dough, the TL simply dominates in this class when you consider all-around goodness. There is no better combination of performance, safety, features and design in this price range. I would go so far as to call the TL the finest effort from Acura to date! The BMW doesnt even come close, which makes one realize how overpriced that brand has become.

  From a 2001 to a 2004 Acura TL - 2004 Acura TL
  By bclarkcd - July 30 - 10:00 am

  While I enjoyed the luxury feel of the 2001 Acura TL, compared to the new 2004 TL it was simply too sedate. The new TL is even more comfortable and just as quite to drive, but much more fun. Its more powerful engine is much more so and its handling is far superior. The improvements in interior features and the many new ones added make me feel like Ive stepped up a couple of notches in style and performance. The new TLs appearance is much sportier and quicker looking. I love it from any perspective.

  Love it!! - 2004 Acura TL
  By Grace - July 27 - 10:19 am

  Love my Acura TL! It is fun to drive and very comfortable. I feel the car is priced well when comparing to European cars with similar features. When I have family and friends in the car with me they always compliment the ride and what a nice car it is. I agree!! Only 2 complaints about this car: 1) Poor turning radius. I previously owned a Honda Accord which could easily do a "U" turn or whip right into a parking spot, not so with the Acura TL. 2) Several blind spots due to side curtain airbags and head rests. The side curtain airbags require extra caution when turning at intersections and looking for pedestrians in the cross walk. Head rests add to blind spots for lane changes.

  Best Car In Its Class - 2004 Acura TL
  By Celine Riendeau - July 8 - 2:10 am

  This vehicle is fun to drive. Excellent quality and handling. Long list of standard features is excellent compared to other models. Smooth and excellent engine power. 6 speed is close ratio. Very comfortable cabin and well appointed. Previous car was an IS 300, the TL is far superior in all areas.

  Great value to price ratio - 2004 Acura TL
  By Black on black TL - July 6 - 1:36 pm

  I recently purchased my 04 TL with 27,000 miles on it. I wanted something a little nicer than my Accord, but with the same features (navigation, etc). TL seemed like a perfect fit. Since driving the vehicle for a month now I have noticed some wear and tear that seems excessive considering the mileage of the car and presumed quality associated with Acura. Annoying rattles are common and the fuel economy could be better (I get around 25-27). However, when comparing the price tag for a comparable European vehicle, the TL is an absolute steal and I would recommend this vehicle.

  By gracey - June 27 - 2:00 am

  I have only had the TL for one week but it is everything the reviews say it is. The fit and finish is excellent inside and out. It had no defects or problems. I had an Audi A4. This car is a much better value and reliablity should be much better.

  The Blind Spot - 2004 Acura TL
  By kristin1 - June 27 - 2:00 am

  I have had my car for about a month and have loved everything about it except one thing, the blind spot. The Blind spot on both sides is enough to drive you crazy. If you are sitting in traffic you can watch cars disapear into it.
