Pros

This car is very reliable, quick, comfortable.....  EVERYTHING.  You can't get a better vehicle.  
The maintenance is not crazy expensive and nothing major has broken on it since I've owned it for over 10 years now and I am a very aggressive driver!  (Except for transmission recall) After 240,000 and counting.....  It still hangs with the latest sports sedan, in performance, comfort and reliability.

Cons

Back seat leg room could be larger.  Transmission recall.  Nothing else.

Acura Is An Awesome Car! — There is nothing that I could say that would be negative about this car. I've driven it approximately 60 miles round trip to work, since owning it and it still feels and acts the way it did when I first got it. This car is absolutely phenomenal!! ACURA is the only way! American car manufacturers should consider enrolling in their school, cause their technology and reliability are still better.

I'd Buy Another Acura Tl ,infinity Or Lexus ...high End Japanese Cars. — As mentioned above with engine oil ,ATF change and fuel injector cleaner every 5000 miles I already have this much mileage and still running very well besides the usual maintenance of brake pads and tires. The Acura name keeps high its class of technology & reliability at a great price. Just remember to add a few drips of oil on the a/c compressor, alternator and power steering pump every 10, 000 miles tokeep that running bearing lubed.

Black On Black — I Love my car! I'm a huge HONDA fan, the cars are built well ,very economical and easy to find parts. Even though this is a 2000 model it has great features. I love the sun roof, black leather seats, huge trunk, automatic lights, wood panels... etc. Not to mention the fact that this car just wants to fly!

Good Car, Fun To Drive, Lots Of Space, And Looks Great — - Good on gas. - Car is like a tank (build quality) - Has a good amount of power for the size of car. - Only thing that is a downside, the transmission is not as its best. Had to replace my tranny, but has warranty on it so it was free. - Overall I would buy this car again, but the Type S model. (more horsepower and performance) 142k miles and it still runs like a champ.

MAJOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES

Good Car. — Good performance better than most cars in its class. Typical Honda reliability (or lack there of in my case). Needed to rebuild transmission. Doesn't stand out but if you observe it for a bit it is a good looking car. Expensive replacement parts. Good gas mileage, I've averaged 25 mpg. It's a car you'll want to push hard once in a while.

Alicia — It's the best car. New transmission, front mount, rear breaks from my work, Stevenson Honda and Acura, March 2008. Ive dented it twice, the front left panel was painted and replaced. The other dent is so close to the back right wheel, it can be banged out. Runs like a champion.

Low Profile Maintainence!

Cons

You have to use premium unleaded fasoline.  Maybe costy!

25

Never Have A Problem! — Very qualitied built. Never have any problem at all. Have your oil cahanged every 3,000 miles and do your regular maintainence. It will keep going and going. But don't forget to replace tires when they get bold.
