| “260hp And 27mpg. Need I Say More?” Reviewing:
2003 Used Acura TL S
I really like the TL-S. It accelerates with authority and still gets 27mpg running to work everyday (no highways!). The fit and finish is great. Exactly what you would expect from Honda. I have had no issues in 18 months which is impressive because it had 117k miles when I bought it. While I would have loved an Infiniti G35 for the RWD, the TL-S is great at less than half the price.
Pros —
Plenty of power in reserve, yet delivers good everyday fuel mileage
Cons —
Wish this was rear wheel drive.

2003 Used Acura TL S
Build quality and performance good. 260 hp so its fast and since it is a type s it has a stiffer suspenstion and handles fairly well. Nice engine note and makes a good amount of noise when it revs. Redlines at i think 7300 rpm which is good and overal is fun to drive. Fwd and gas mileage are the only negatives.
Pros —
Build quality and preformance
Cons —
take premium and fwd

| “'03 Acura Tl” Reviewing:
2003 Used Acura TL 3.2TL w/ Navigation
The biggest problem with this car is that everyone has one. When I forget where I am parked in a parking lot I sometimes go up to a few other cars before I find mine.
Pros —
Dependable
Cons —
Too many of the same car on the road

| “Impossible Not To Love” Reviewing:
2003 Used Acura TL S
its not a racecar, but it will outrun most of anything you see on the road. acceleration is good and it handles great. it also has a great exhaust note that gets attention. the quality was outstanding the entire time i owned the car ( it was totalled head on in 2008) and there was nothing to my knowledge that was starting to crap out on me. the car isnt the most beautiful thing on the road, but it has that luxurious look you can expect from an Acura. the interior couldnt be more perfect though, from the guages to the leather seats to the cool cup holders (that passengers love to play with). maintenance wasnt bad, but gas mileage could have been better (about 18) and premium is recommended. this car is also incredibly safe. i was in a head on collision with a pickup and i survived thanks to this car. im getting another one as soon as i get the money
Pros —
safety, power, handling, style
Cons —
very easy to get carried away in

| “2003 Acura Tl Stype Aspec” Reviewing:
2003 Used Acura TL S
The Acura TL S type with the A spec package is a very high quality sports-luxury sedan. It is a beautiful car from the factory and does not need much performance enhancing. The car is fun to drive, smooth from a stand still all the way to 130mph without hestitation. The design features classic luxury class features and fit and trim is perfect. The Acura line was developed as the "precision" line from Honda, the innovative leader in automobile technology. Most do not know the "A" badge is actually a symbol of "calipers" reflecting precision. Overall the performace is extremely high, the build quality is outstanding, the appearance is lovely, and just a great purchase. Acura prides itself on high reliability and repairs are minimal, mainly requiring normal maintenance. The cost of ownership is well worth such a fine automobile and I look forward to purchasing the next TL-S in addition to keeping this one.
Pros —
High performance, great build quality, excellent appearance, overall fun car to own.
Cons —
The normal high end cost of high performance autos.
