2002 Acura TL Overview
2002 marked the introduction of the powerful new Type S trim for the Acura TL midsize sedan. The 3.2 L, 260 hp V6 engine represents a significant upgrade on the 3.2 L, 225 hp V6 3.2 TL trims. The '02 TL has 4 doors, seats 5, and comes in 4 trims: 3.2 TL, 3.2 TL with navigation, Type S, and Type S with navigation.
As for gas mileage, expect to get 19 mpg in the city and 29 on the highway. While the TL trims don't offer the stability control that the Type S has, all 4 trims come with a long list of standard equipment, including sunroof, power/leather seats, ABS brakes, and traction control. Type S trims get going in a relative hurry, reaching 60 mph in 6.65 seconds.
Overall, drivers like the extra juice in the Type S engines and the general value that the 2002 Acura TL offers. On the other hand, reviewers wouldn't mind a little extra attention to comfort, style, and luxury. It goes without saying, but we'll say it anyway: for more style and substance in your TL, get a model from '04 or later.

carlover187 What can I say about this tl generation it was sporty with a 3.2 liter v6 that made 225 hp and 260 with the type s model it's comfortable and it's got decent gas mileage for a 4-door sports sedan and it is one of the sexiest sounds from a car I've ever heard I'm not even jokin my dad has a 2000 tl not a type s but he's got headers a cold air intake etc and it makes just over 300 hp and with the aftermarket dual exhaust it makes your body cringe when the vtech kicks in and with vtech and a 6 cylinder your in good shape for racing but this is easily one of my favorite if not my favorite 4-door car ever the only thing that would've made this generation better is a manual tranny but the "manual" mode which is a sequential 5 speed is smooth and delivers power great. Overall I give the generation Acura tl a 9/10
