This Year's Model Updates:

The TL has been redesigned for 1999, with everything just getting better. The 2.5-liter engine is gone, making way for an all-new 3.2-liter V6. The transmission has been refined, the interior design makes better use of space, and the exterior is updated.

Pros:
  • Near-luxury pricing with full-luxury equipment.
Cons:
  • Styling may be too conservative, and where are the side airbags?

  • Im in love with my car - 1999 Acura TL
    By -

    I totally love this car! It has been a fantastic value. It looks great and I look great in it. After 14 years of driving "mom" cars, I feel like Ive reclaimed my youth. The engine is powerful, the handling is great, the interior is sleek and comfortable.

  • Acura is an awesome car to drive and own - 1999 Acura TL

    I bought my Acura when my company decided to not provide us with company cars any longer. I have loved driving my Acura for almost 3 years now and am currently looking at buying another one to replace mine. I have put over 60,000 miles on the one I have now and have only had to change the oil, replace the brakes and tires during that time.

    Great driving car, smooth, super quiet, good power. 33 mpg on highway. Only thing Id change is the instrumentation displays on the dashboard, cant read them when sun is shinning which can be dangerous when doors are ajar. etc.

  • Excellent Car - 1999 Acura TL

    I think the TL is a very nice car. Its really roomy inside and well designed. The TLs acceleration is just ridiculous. You can drive at 80 mph and not even know it - thats how smooth this car is.

  • thoughtful design, great value - 1999 Acura TL
    By -

    I test drove several late-model used vehicles in this price range--Infinity I-30, Maxima, VW Passat, Mazda Millenia, Toyota Camry V6. The Acura had the best combination of sportiness, refinement, and solid feel. The equipment for the money is remarkable-- the Acura actually sold for less as a new vehicle than just about any of the others I tested, but it was a little higher as a used car (less depreciation) and worth it! I cant really describe the feeling of driving the car (my wife calls it "purposeful"), but I can say that after driving all these other vehicles the Acura stood out as the most desirable.

  • Good comprimise of Space and performance - 1999 Acura TL

    Buyers beware, if your TL is a Canadian version, then it is NOT under warranty in the United States! Either my Sales person was misinformed, or just plain lying....but thats the fact on the issue. Even still, the car is very reliable and fun to drive. The sport shifter is very effective for passing once you get used to it. You can achieve a more sporty appearence with body kit and rear spoiler without sacrificing its classy style. Could use some Fog lights. Different wheel styling and bigger tires wouldve helped enormously with the handeling.

  • Love my TL - 1999 Acura TL

    We wanted a car that would be safe, fun and reliable. After testing the TL we knew this was the car. After one month and a 600 mile trip I know we made the right decision. This is a very easy car to drive.

  • The Best Value - bar none. - 1999 Acura TL
    By -

    In the past 10 years, Ive had 4 Acuras, 92 and 94 Legends, and 96 and 99 3.2 TLs. This one beats them all - and for thousands less. You cannot go wrong!

  • Great vehicle - 1999 Acura TL
    By -

    This vehicle has been great overall. Small issues that have appeared are rear view mirror when turned on auto shade has shade gradient, middle console makes squeaking noise even after being replaced once. No mechanical problems have appeared. Keeping tire pressure at maximum increases performance significantly.

  • Great car! - 1999 Acura TL
    By -

    Great car fun to drive. Quiet, powerful, smooth. Excellent reliability and quality.
