  Winner with Style - 2003 Acura TL
  By Cam C - February 28 - 2:00 am

  Good gas mileage. Great performance. Good sound to engine at high revs. Others have criticized the interior - I prefer it to anything else in its class. No high-tech metal faces. Exterior is pleasing with nice chrome. Dont like the wheels. Now with 7000 miles on it I am still very pleased.

  TL Type-S - 2003 Acura TL
  By duval1 - February 28 - 2:00 am

  Superb handling as good as rearwheel drive in my opinion. Firm suspension but thats why I got Type-S. It is Q U I C K !!! Styling works to your advantage in other words doesnt draw unneeded attention from law enforcement. Plenty of room for 4 full-size adults. Quality is first- rate. Has everything as standard which makes it a great value.

  This vehicle provides an excellent powertrain with proven reliability, alluring styling, and all for a apectacular value. p.s. the navigation system is worth it if you have the extra $.

  so far so good - 2003 Acura TL
  By knix200129 - January 29 - 10:00 am

  Just leased my 03 with Nav a month ago. So far I love this car. Looked at the Lexus IS300/ES300, and the Volvo S60/s80. After looking at all the goodies that came with the TL, and compared the pricing vs. the Lexus and the Volvo, it was no contest. So far this car is awesome. The passing power is great, the interior room (im 62" 260lbs) is very good, and the bose stereo ROCKS!!!! I also am leasing a Honda Odyssey w/Nav(which the wife and I LOVE!) but the stereo in the ODY is horrible. Anyhow, great car, great ride, great value, and great sound. If choosing an entry level Lux car, this is your car.

  Ninas Review - 2003 Acura TL
  By Nina - January 28 - 10:23 pm

  Bought one 6 months ago 2002 TL type S. This car is not as smooth as other luxury sedans. The shocks in it not very great cuz you feel the bumps more in this car than in other competing luxury sedans. But the power in the engine is worth it! Love the way this little baby takes off! Have never had any problems with this car, rides very nice, engine is great! Very sexy little number! Perfect combination of sophistication and sassy-ness!

  Lots of bang for your buck... - 2003 Acura TL
  By roymccoy - January 6 - 10:00 am

  We have had our 2003 TL-SType w/navigation for about a month and we love the car. Fast, fuel efficient and more technology inside then our airplane. (Im not kidding) Pros: Snappy, fuel efficient, technology loaded, comfy seats, big trunk, lots of storage places, could never own a car without the navigation system again! Lots for your money, nicer than my BMW 328i. Cons: Never really liked the Acura body styling, too much wind noise at freeway speeds, why cant a $35,000 car have automatic headlights? Bose sound system is just okay, air-conditioner is hard to get set just right...not enough vents in the front.

  Great car but wish I waited for the 2004 - 2003 Acura TL
  By SanDiegodriver - December 19 - 2:00 am

  Considered the Infinity G35 but because it was "car of the year" they would not make a deal. Also considered the Lexus ES300 which is a very nice car but priced about $ 8,000 higher when equipped the same. Narrowed it down to the newly designed Honda Accord with the 240 HP engine but eventually settled on the Acura for its interior quality. The Leather seats feel extra plush.

  King of the Road - 2003 Acura TL
  By Marso - December 13 - 10:00 am

  After 2yrs (albeit only 13K miles), the car is as awesome now as it was when I bought it. Drivers seat squeak and lack of punch in the stereo are my only complaints. The car encourages you to go faster as you feel the power trying to take over. The look is sharp in Black/Black, Navi system lots of fun and useful. Have heard of tranny issue on some early 03s, which mine is, but got notice from Acura of extension of warranty to 7 yrs/100K, so theyre standing behind it. Would buy again in a second.

  The Compromise - 2003 Acura TL
  By Jim6090 - December 10 - 2:00 am

  What a compromise. I love VW Passats, but my wife wanted smooth and RELIABLE!! This baby is smooth and powerful. I bought the car as a compromise with my wife. SHE was right, I did not admit this to her. This is a GREAT car. So much car for a reasonable price. I have driven them all and this is the best!!!!!

  Most "Bang for your Buck!" - 2003 Acura TL
  By randalr1 - November 29 - 10:00 am

  This is the second newer generation Acura TL my wife and I have owned. Both have been excellent cars. The engine is outstanding and very smooth. We have owned several cars at this pricepoint and the Acura blows them all away. You get the features in a 35k - 40k car while paying 30k or less. Plus you get a great warranty 4yrs, 50k.
