    I down sized from a SUV to a car. This is the best car on the market for the price.Its so sleek, comfortable and so much to love about it, I dont miss my gas hog SUV. The heated seats, blue display, steering wheel controls are lit and easy to use, bluetooth phone is next for me, Its so FAST and i love the shifting option.

    This car blows BMW, and Benz out of its class. This car is fun to drive yet it still handles like a luxury car. The navagation on it is great! This car is by far worth its money!

  • Quality Issues - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    The Acura TL is definitely a great looking car. However, it has many problems that Acura is not willing to share...well here is the list: The paint has shrinkage. You can see this in proper lighting. I have seen the defects on almost every car. The paint on the bumper cover peels at the mounting point. Rattles in the dash area. Rattles in headliner. The center console will sweat when using the air conditioning. I was told by the dealer that the coil was located in the center console. No fix available!!!

    the tl is great. the biggest and only downfall that i can find with it is the fuel economy. im not getting any kind of mileage what so ever. also the car seems to have quite a few blind spots when looking to change lanes on the highway, but the styling and ride cant be matched by any other car that ive had the pleasure of owning or riding in.

  • Want to buy New 09 but hate the styling - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    I have owned 2 Preludes 84,88,94 Accord & 04 TL. 04 TL w/ Nav is my favorite. I was so disappointed when I went to update to this years model in December. Honda did the same thing to the Prelude. Took a perfect car and blew it up to a big car. The TL size, Nose and “Cadillac” rear is all big turn offs. Then Honda moved the Nav into the dash takes away the intuitive touch screen. I was told the people didn’t like the finger prints. Does Honda even talk to its customers that loved the old lines and features? I am now looking for an 08 with the options I want, move to BMW or wait to see if Honda comes to its senses and fix this mess within 18 months. I am so disappointed in Honda.

  • Drivers Delight - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    First time to own an Acura (3300 miles). Hugs turns and corners. Brakes grab securely. Steering wheel controls seem well placed. Navigation finds even obscure locations and remembers them. Dash lights are attractive, and the automated maintenance/mileage/data center relieve alot of worry. I look forward to going places because the driving experience is rewarding. Ive recommended an Acura to my wife.

  • Mistake - 2004 Acura TL
    By -

    I just recently bought a TL and have already had it back to fix a faulty check engine light. Further, the tires case the car to vibrate on the highway and the car has several rattles.
