  Great car - 1998 Acura TL
  By GaryJB - February 28 - 2:00 am

  Tight turning radius is a plus. Speedy acceleration, smooth ride at high speeds. Quick warm-up on cold mornings - heat in the seats.

  Great but not without flaws - 1998 Acura TL
  By kwle04 - February 5 - 2:00 am

  Handling is precise and predictable, a sure mark of quality craftsmanship. Not like BMW, but has tight riding - you can feel the contour of road surface in a well tamed manner. Surprizingly reliable driving and traction in various inclement weather conditions - A+. If you make sure that air filter, spark plugs, and engine oil are clean, then you will be surprised with its mileage. Mine has 115,000 miles on it, and drives about 27 miles per gallon faithfully on highway with some inner city driving combined. Today it recorded 27.4miles/gallon on my trip to Richmond. Not too bad at all for such a heavy machine! Definitely a nice bang for the bucks.

  Not Actually - 1998 Acura TL
  By jea16 - November 27 - 2:00 am

  Ive owned the car for a couple of years now. Almost everything has its troubles. I found out that its common on these cars to have 3+ fuel injectors to go out at once. Seems to me thats a flaw that needs to be fixed. The paint and body doesnt hold up near as well as any other car Ive owned. It squeeks, rattles, etc. The dealership knows me by name. Unfortunately, my wife just bought the 2003 and she is also a fequent visitor of the service center. I sold the BMW for a more reliable car. I messed up.

  Owned for a year - 1998 Acura TL
  By gomizzou - October 27 - 2:00 am

  I got a great deal on this car when I bought it and have never looked back. It rides great and looks just as good. Acura spares no expense. I will have to think long and hard before I ever stray from the acura brand. I love it.

  Luv that Acura!! - 1998 Acura TL
  By Mabobwa Charles - October 14 - 2:00 am

  This has been, without a doubt, the BEST car I have ever owned! No problems, just routine maintenance. I would get it the car now, and drive to the west coast without reservation! All Acuras are good cars, but this one takes the cake!

  Smooth Ride - 1998 Acura TL
  By M J M - August 24 - 2:00 am

  Bought the car used and have never had a problem. The car is sleek and classy. Rides smooth and quietly. The interior is well designed and comfortable. I would recomend this vehicle over a Lexus any day. If you get one you will not be dissapointed.

  This is a great car. I bought it pre- owned from an Acura dealership and love it. The ride is great, it is very reliable, the sound system is very good, the outside design is beautiful and the inside is ergonomically well designed.

  Love it - 1998 Acura TL
  By Roadrunner - July 17 - 2:00 am

  I live in Canada. Bought this vehicle, last year from a dealer with 67000 km (41000 miles). The car was in mint condition. Its mostly used by my wife and after 11 months its has a little over 80000 km (50000 miles). I love every aspect of the car. Its drives like an expensive luxry sedan and has a vert smooth drive with effortless power.

  Great Vehicle - 1998 Acura TL
  By craigch8 - February 7 - 2:00 am

  I bought my 2.5 TL used with 50K miles on it. I now have over 100Kmiles on it and it still drives like new. I originally bought it with a warranty, never needed it. Extremely reliable, just as quick as the 3.2TL, better gas mileage. I would suggest this model to anyone. Youll love it.

  A fantastic value - 1998 Acura TL
  By jdaniels - December 27 - 2:00 am

  I bought the TL as an Acura Certified pre-owned car with 44,000 miles on it. Condition of paint/leather/engine compartment was/still is (at 56,000 miles) unbelievable "showroom" new. The car runs and drives like something much more expensive its "gait" on the highway has to be experienced .. it just powers effortlessly along at illegal speeds. The transmission shifts are undetectable, unless youre really pushing it, and then you WANT to feel it shift and it does so smartly. Handling is decent for a car of this size/weight/genre. Reliability is rock solid.
