2008 Acura TL Type-S Reviews
| “Nicely Equipped Performance Family Sedan” So it's a sporty version of the TL with 3.5 liter V6 developing 286hp, driving the front wheels. It's nicely equipped inside with NAV, 10 speaker in-dash DVD changer, special alloy wheels, a lip spoiler and special leather seats standard. It drives smooth and quiet. Build quality is good and is quite roomy inside. As for the gas mileage, I average 27 MPG, driving slower than grannies. If I slam on the gas pedal (the way I used to drive for 20 years), the average drops to below 22 MPG. Compared to what I drove right before this car (Honda S2000), this car drives like a fat cow. 6 speed manual is offered which I would have loved to get, however, I was overruled by my better half. Manual transmission would have improved all the performance numbers as well as the driving enjoyment for me. Oh well, can't have it all, I guess it beats driving a mini-van.
Pros —
Good acceleration
Good handling for a front wheel drive sedan All inclusive packaging (NAV, In-dash DVD changer, Moonroof...) Decent gas mileage when driven like a granny Smooth and quiet Dealer gives you free loaner car
Cons —
Manual pedal shifting is way too slow
Suspension is not taut enough ABS kicks in way too early Maybe a little more pronounced exhaust sound would add to the sporty nature of this car Ugly wheels (It's my car so it's the only opinion that counts) Bad gas mileage if driven enthusiastically Service at the dealership costs $$$$
