This Year's Model Updates:

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.

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

  • Impressed - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    The car is new (not yet broken in) but so far very impressed. Ride is sporty but comfortable. Stereo is excellent but do not think 5.1 DVD really adds much quality. I am 6 foot 5 inches and I fit into this car.

  • WOW - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    Fantastic...This car has it all. Horsepower, comfort, accessibility are just a few of the luxuries of this well built automobile. Front wheel drive has its draw backs with this amount of power, but come snow season Ill be passing all the rear wheel drive cars.

  • FASTEST SEDAN AROUND - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    THIS CAR HANDLES GREAT, VERY LITTLE PUSH IN HARD CORNERS. THE ACCELERATION IS OUT THERE FOR A 3.2 V-6. THE CAR IS SOLID WITH NO RATTLES, IF YOU DID HAVE ONE YOU COULDNT HEAR IT OVER THE SOUND SYSTEM.

  • Great Car - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    Quick and quiet and very comfortable. After many hours of research over two months, I determined that the two best cars for the money by far in the $32k-40k range were the G35 and the Acura TL. The Acura is loaded with standard features and I prefer the FWD for slick roads. I drove both of them & bought the TL because Acura depreciates less, has lower maintenance costs, and has a better safety rating than Infiniti

  • Recommended "Buy" - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    For several months, I searched for the "right" next car to buy; BMW, Infiniti, SAAB, even Cadillac and Mercedes. Hands down, the test drive of the new for 2004 TL sold me on the car. It is comfortable, spacious - and Fun (yes, with a capital "F"). And, for the price - there is no beating the included features.

  • Im In Love Again - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    I got my white diamond pearl TL with parchment interior just b4 xmas. I absolutely love this car. As my first new car purchase, I am not disappointed. I drove it straight from the dealers lot(North Carolina) to Disney World Orlando. It was a blast and surely a head turner everywhere I went. I had to watch for cops but it was fun cruising @ 90 and the car feels like its going 60. A friend told me, he was upset but somehow he calmed down once in my TL and got mad again once he stepped out of the car. I achieved a sub 7second time for 0-60. Go for a testdrive(20minutes minimum and just punch the pedal, youd smile when you are upto 100 in about 11seconds).

  • Better than expected - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    I was led to believe the new TL was merely an upscale Accord EX-L. Couldnt have been more wrong. Fun to drive and absolutely loaded with tech toys, Acura has really set themselves apart from the competition in a very affordably priced mid size sedan. I compared, and seriously considered the GS300, 530i, and G35. The TL had more interior room than most, while truly exhibting a great sporty look. Ive put to use almost all of the tech gadgets. Integrated bluetooth works great - the DVD Audio is out of this world (although finding them is tough), and its one of the best GPS and map data systems Ive used. Performance is great - ride is smooth.

  • Great Car without the Rattles - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    For Acuras claim to and reputation of quality, I would expect a better build. Windows rattle; center speaker buzzes at speeds in excess of 50mph; sunroof rattles intermittently. And, I thought that rattles were only unique to the driver...but the complaints are legit. All this at 8,000 miles (the rattles began at 3,000). Take away the rattles-- this is a fantastic car! My gas mileage (combo city/highway) is consistently 27- 28 mph. Couldnt find a better value for the money--I love this car.

    An all around great car and a bargin at that. Only weakness is the crummy tires.

  • Acura TL - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    Best car Ive ever owned. Im 51 years old and I have finally had the opportunity for that special car. Im glad I picked the TL. Not only is it great looking, it is a blast to drive and makes heads turn.
