Most popular Acura TL for sale

After a series of luckluster vehicles I have unexpectedly come to own a very formidable one.
It obviously depends on what your goals are. If you MUST have a BMW, then Acura TL Type S is not for you. However, if you decide to own a reliable and powerfull performance / entry level luxury vehicle - you 've got what you were looking for.
Let me start with first impression:
It does not look too sexy outside, luckluster exterior design of late 1990ies shows. Inside, it is a tipical entry level luxury / european sedan, no frills, but in-dash 6-discs CD changer, heated seats, memory seats, climate control - things you've come to expect from a vehicle of this class.
Magic starts when you start the vehicle and get going. Abundance of passing and merging power, very tight suspension, very light understeer (front wheel drive) - all of these come unexpected for a vehicle of this class and price (could be purchased used for under $15K).
Here is what you get technically:
260hp 3.2-Liter SOHC 24-Valve VTEC V6 Engine - naturally aspired high HP comes at the price of high compression, resulting in somewhat steep torque curve - low torque at low RPM.
4-Wheel Disc Brakes - provide excellent stopping power
5-Speed Automatic Transmission with Sequential SportShift - when you want to race that stiff upper lip BMW, switch into tiptronic mode - and, voila!, you got power on demand (that comes with higher fuel consumption, of course)
Double Wishbone Suspension - will make your car sick to the road like krazy glue.
All in all, I absolutely enjoy the vehicle, particularly, when I remember how much I have spent on it.

This car is beautiful inside and out, the leather seats are among the most comfortable you will find in anywhere. The engine has quite a bit of get-up-and-go while maintaining very good gas mileage. The autostick is fun to play around with. Repairs and maintenance are nothing out of the ordinary cost wise. Beware -- 1999-2003 TL's are renown for their faulty transmissions, which Acura covers under warranty UP TO 109,000 miles. Do your research on the car before buying it, and get it inspected before finalizing payment -- it could save you lots of money. That issue aside, you will find absolutely no faults in the car (perhaps with the exception of outdated navigation data). Awesome fit and finish, roomy, dependable, smooth and quiet ride, easy to use controls, great Bose sound. Should last you well over 200,000 miles.

Very nice Luxury sedan. Handling, braking, acceleration and music : All good and well-balanced. The looks and exterior are worthy of a midsize luxury car.
