Love this new car! - 2015 Acura TLX
By jwrinn - September 21 - 3:00 amLove the new TLX. Very smooth ride. Electronics in the dash are well thought out. The interior design is sporty yet classy. The LED headlights give the car a very sleek and trendy look. The Econo mode boost gas mileage. 70/30 split of highway/city driving has earned me 29mpg.

No Manual = No Fun - 2015 Acura TLX
By gt0279a - September 15 - 3:59 pmI owned a 2006 TSX 6spd manual with nav. Fun car and hard to beat the price with all the features. The 4 cyl was hi-revving and fun to drive, but the car was small and lacked low end power. Unfortunately, in the TLX they got the size right, but the car lacks any fun factor. Way too many buttons to push, no manual transmission option and cheesy faux wood paneling. At least with the old TL and TSX you could opt for no wood. The TSX also came standard with leather, not as nice as the TLs, but better than the fake leather used in the base TLX. I know a similar optioned BMW 3 series would come in around $5-7 grand more, but a nice used 335i seem better to me.

Enjoying my new TLX - 2015 Acura TLX
By brucej97223 - September 13 - 11:17 pmI traded in my 2008 528i for a 2015 TLX v6 with the tech package, after looking at BMWs and MB. I am really enjoying the TLX. It drives as well as the new (post 2012) 5 series - which are less fun than my old 2008 - and it holds my family and my 61 son better than the new C-class (which is an amazing car, just too small). However, when you compare the MSRP of the TLX against similarly equipped German cars, you easily save $20K or more. Yes, the TLX isnt perfect - crisper handling would be nice, but overall the value for money factor on this car is amazing - well send the kid to college for a year on what we saved, and have fun driving him there to boot.

Test drove the TLX - 2015 Acura TLX
By hcsolo1 - September 10 - 3:16 pmIn the market for a new car & recently test drove the TLX. I came away very impressed with the cars quality, comfort, driving dynamics and most importantly value. Top of the line TLX sh-awd with Advance Package is $44,595. I test drove the Mercedes C300 & C400, Bmw 328i & 335i, Audi A4 2.0T & S4. all great cars but in the end I chose the TLX because its packed with technology, great reputation for reliability and costs $5,000 to $15,000 cheaper then any of its competition when fully equipped with the same feature content. A no brainier for me!

Acura nailed it with the TLX - 2015 Acura TLX
By jmacew - September 3 - 10:17 pmTwo weeks ago today, I traded in my 2006 Acura TSX. I loved my TSX, but after 18 years I figured it was time for an upgrade. So earlier this year, I started my research for my next car. After researching several options including BMW 3 series, Infiniti Q50, Lexus IS 350, and Acura TL. I read the news that Acura was unveiling the TLX. So I decided to postpone my purchase until late summer. Late summer arrived and I have my new car the Acura TLX. I am glad that I waited. It has only been two weeks, however it has already exceeded my expectations in an automobile. The ride is smooth and well balanced and performance of the V6 is amazing. I was not expecting 0-60 in 6 seconds.

Acuras Sedans are Back! - 2015 Acura TLX
By unlimitedinc - August 27 - 10:47 amI had a TSX. It was great. I have to admit, for the TLX, I was worried about the dual clutch transmission. I worried about Acura getting back to its roots with its sedans. All that has been put to rest. My 2.4L tech TLX has been absolutely great! There are some pretty curvy, hilly roads in Austin and I put the car to a test. It handles amazingly well and the transmission... awesome! You can feel the gear change from idle on to 2nd gear but thats it. Even then, its pretty close. The technology is awesome too! I havent even gotten to the aesthetics. The body looks great and the interior is definitely luxury. Thank you Acura!

15 TLX - It is not that "kind of thrill" - 2015 Acura TLX
By westlx - May 29 - 5:37 pmGot a great deal on the TLX end of 2015 and only bought it due to getting thousands off sticker. I did not think the 1,000 off sticker was justified for this car after driving it earlier in the year. It does have a great smooth, quiet ride. The 4cyl has more than enough power with the 8speed DCT. It is nice having the rear cross and blind spot protection and it is a great highway cruiser getting around 35 on premium gas. Do not believe the dealer than you can run 87, well yeah you can but the engine knocks. So pros: Quiet ride, very nice ride over bumps etc, sound system is great and gas mileage is good for a car this size. Cons: 2,000 miles into owning the car noticed a crease in the headliner, not just a wrinkle as I thought. The headliner was broken, how did that pass QA? Dealer had to pull windshield out to put a new one in. Just great having a new car all ripped apart. This warranted 2 trips to the dealer, because it was not assembled 100% like new when I went to pick it up and they had to order more parts. Fit and finish inside is just ok, I would expect better for the luxury brand of Honda. Touch screen for hvac is just dumb, good I have LKAS cause you need it while changing the controls. Granted I knew this and thought I would get use to it, but give me knobs back please. Now my most recent issue is the car when sifting out of drive will not go into reverse, you have to play with the trans to get it to work. 50-75% of the time it wont go in reverse. On day one at the dealer I was told this never happened before. Now on day two being told it has happened before and it is a shift cable that is damaged. I asked what caused the damage and I was told Acura does not know. During this visit also asked to fox the rattle/vibration in the headliner. So much for no rattles after the car was ripped apart. Now to see how the panels are fitting after being ripped apart twice now. After the first time they certainly dont look like my loaner now where it is all neat and tight. And forget calling Acura Client Relations they are a joke. Person today was rude and told me they cannot do anything about these issues and that the dealer needs to address any complaints since they sold the car and each dealership is an independent business from Acura. Based on the call today, I guess Acura doesnt give a crap about the defects they put out from their production lines. I had some initial problems with my Jeep, and I have to say their customer service puts Acura to shame! Overall I want to like the car, but so far the ownership is not what I had expected from an Acura product. Go read consumer reports and check out what they are stating about the Acura brand this year before spending your hard earned money. Update: ending up selling the car. Around 8000 miles my seat seemed to break in, however where the seam is on the back by your lumbar area stayed firm. After driving. Ore than 2+ hrs it was like something was stabbing you in the back. I took some trips in my jeep, and bam my back was no longer sore. I tried to get two dealers to look at it and both said nothing was wrong with it. Ended up ditching it as I could not take it anymore.

Happy customer - 2015 Acura TLX
By Markus - April 22 - 3:07 pmDon’t go by reviews! Well just consider people complain much much more often than they praise. Just like all my ACURA cars, this one has been equally fabulous! Not a single problem 3years and 68k mi later..Flawless and I have found an honest dealership which never happens. I trade every 3-4 yrs. I may not. I think this thing cruises to 100k without a whimper.. dang good car.

Excellent Car for Entry Luxury Vehicles - 2015 Acura TLX
By Tim Johnson - February 22 - 4:18 pmThe TLX is a well complimented car. The technology, safety and audio packages are outstanding. The 3.5 liter V6 can be a rocket ship when needed.
