Excellent used vehicle - 1996 Acura TL
By D. Mullaly - August 30 - 2:00 amBought a wll-maintained 3.2TL Premium and can only marvel at it. Love the understated exterior (take that, Aurora!), and the interior is ergonomically perfect. Only wish the shift points on the automatic transmission were smoother, but I am comparing them to a much newer Honda Odyssey and realize the advances in technology since 1996. Ride quality nicely toes the line between sport and comfort, but body lean is slightly pronounced. Overall, this is a great car.

The Perfect Car - 1996 Acura TL
By BB - August 27 - 2:00 amI love this car! When I decide to trade this car in or sell it, it will be a sad day. I will looking at replacing it with a newer Acura TL version. This is my third Honda product and I am a loyal customer. I recommend the TL to anyone wanting a sports sedan with luxury elements at an economic value!

Acura Produces Great Autos - 1996 Acura TL
By Jbrown500 - June 24 - 2:00 amI bought this one used but it feels, smells, and acts like new. Very reliable and handles like a charm. As a medium size luxury car it is a great value and is probably one of the more underappreciated cars in this class. My TL2.5 is as reliable as the day I purchased it, even with 117,000.

A Very Mixed Bag - 1996 Acura TL
By WavyGravy - May 26 - 2:00 amThis car is in one word interesting. The materials and design on the inside and out are of top quality, but the engine is another story. The inline 2.5 Litre inline 5 cylinder is the outcast of Acura engines. While it loves to rev high and sound very buzzy, it doesnt move you as fast as you would expect it too. With some very agressive driving in my automatic 2.5, Ive been able to squeeze out a 0- 60 time of 7.4 seconds. Not too bad in my book, especially since its a 5 banger pulling around 170 horses. Not a fast car, but one that will move you around in style and almost guranteed to fire up every morning.

Too smallfor over 6 feet tall! - 1996 Acura TL
By Tidepride824 - September 3 - 2:00 amI like my car, but my dad cannot fit in it well, and he is only 61"! The leather feels a little rubbery and not luxurious enough, the Accord feels more luxurious with its velour.The engine is smooth and peppy, but mileage is a litle on the low side for such a small engine.
