Overview & Reviews
A new five-speed sequential SportShift automatic transmission and free-flowing intake manifold debut. A side-airbag system becomes standard as does a dual-stage inflator for the front-passenger airbag. The optional navigation system now features a DVD database.
- Excellent value, comfortable front seats, powerful and efficient engine, SportShift transmission is fun to use.
- Cheap interior bits, cramped rear seat room, excessive body roll in turns.

Sorry I bought it - 2000 Acura TL
By FoSho69 - April 7 - 9:34 pmThis is the 2nd Tl Ive owned in the past 3 years. My first one had the navigation system. The car ran pretty good, except for the navigation performance. It wouldnt hold the GPS position if its life depended on it, although it was very user friendly. I currently have a 2000 TL and I dread the day I bought it. First off, The transmission. It was sticking, then gave out altogether, stranding me along the road. Ive taken it to acura numerous times for service and I get the run-around. I was furious when it finally broke. It also has the worse cup holders. Also, playing burnt CDs from home is impossible. When I get another car very soon, I will buy another Lexus.

It must be love.. - 2000 Acura TL
By Brina - February 9 - 11:39 pmI LOVE this car. I had a 96 Accord EX, took it in one day for an oil change... it was a wrap. I test drove the TL and bought it. I have never had a moments regret. It was a lease vehicle so naturally it was pristine when I got it. It can do with 6 cylinders what many cars cant with 8. Nothing to do other than scheduled maintenance and the occasional tweak. I swear by my dealer(Acura) service. Almost 3 years later my baby runs like she did the day I got her. :-)

50% shop 50% road - 2000 Acura TL
By tom - January 2 - 10:20 pmI bought this car after trading in my Subaru, as fast as I could. The car is a great car when it works. I have had to replace all four tires for belt shift - factory originals, new brakes all around, front rods, and the auto rear mirror. The side air bag light goes on with no one in the seat and the seat belt buckles have been done in the front. This is my 2nd Acura and the dealer has been good about repairs. Once out of warantee get a good mechanic and use original parts, they are expensive but will make a difference. Dont bother with the high end gas it is only expensive.

Good all around car - 2000 Acura TL
By Nick Elam - June 12 - 1:01 amIve had great service from this car. Mechanically it is smooth but I have had some misgivings about the transmission. I love the 5 speed automatic but it acts a little strange at times. The trans was replaced by Acura as a warranty at about 50,000 miles.

Superb car - 2000 Acura TL
By Ravi - April 17 - 8:55 pmI have owned my 3.2 TL for a year now. I bought it used at 47,000 miles and it now has 62,000. It is a great all round car - Has ample power, a smooth ride, every feature you can ask for and its such fun to drive. Gas mileage has been impeccable and has not varied at all from the day I first bought it. I have even used the low grade fuel in it. It runs just fine. I havent even had to think about its reliability! I am 6 feet tall and this is the most comfortable car that I have driven. You may call the styling bland, but I feel that it has clean lines and looks aerodynamic. I would absolutely recommend this car.

Great Used Choice - 2000 Acura TL
By Labdog Willie - March 16 - 12:55 amAfter suffering through a few Volvos I decided to try the 3.2 TL after reading some articles and Im sure glad I bought this car. Bought a used on to let someone else pay the first years depreciation and Ive been a happy camper ever since. Havent experienced the dreaded Acura tranny problems (knock on wood) and my mechanic loves this car, well....after those Volvos who wouldnt. I consistantly leave the shop smiling because they never find anything wrong with it. Would I buy another....you bet....that 2005 looks pretty good about now!

Dream Car - 2000 Acura TL
By Tiffany - March 8 - 9:46 pmI have owned many cars, driven many more, and this car has been fantastic. Last year I went looking for a fast sedan without breaking the bank. I tried a few of the competetors cars: Maxima, Aurora, etc... I made the mistake of test driving the TL first. The first time I gunned the gas I was in love. I was genuinely impressed. I havent regretted it since. It had a transmission problem that I never noticed, but the dealership had found it when I took it in for a checkup. So, it never has troubled me. I drive about 75 miles a day on a light day, and that car has allowed me to enjoy driving again. Excellent choice for anyone who wants a really dependable fun car.

battery problem - 2000 Acura TL
By tonyg - December 10 - 9:06 pmI purchased this vehicle used with 33000 miles. I am pleased with the performance of the engine and transmisson. The engine has very good pick up and the tranny is exceptionally smooth. The bose radio system is a good fit for this car. I like the radio controls on the steering wheel. My only complaint with this car is the battery. I have had to replace the battery every 12 months. I use Sears die hard so the second battery was free. I think that a circuit is open and draining the battery.

Awesome car - 2000 Acura TL
By Joshwitmer - November 12 - 5:26 pmIve had the car just over a few days now and I absolutely love it. I bought it with 77000 on the clock, and just rolled over 78000. I do a lot of commuting, this is a rock solid mid-size luxury car. Reliability of all the Honda/Acuras Ive owned has always been top notch and the TL is no different. Everything you would expect from Acura. Gas mileage is what you would expect from a 3.2l v6. Perfect car for any business man/woman.
