2008 Acura TL Review:
I want to love this car so bad. It has good looks, has strong performance and lots of nice features, but the road noise is unacceptable for a near luxury car. You hear it starting at 10mph, which is just plain stupid, and by the time you are on the highway at 70mph the roar sounds like a jet airplane taking off. It just ruins this car.

2008 Acura TL Review:
I had been in a 2001 Acura TL. I started my search for a new vehicle with the Lexus 350. Also looked at the BMW 3 series, but ultimately, I test drove a 2008 TL and fell in love. It is a no brainer for options, (navigation or no navigation is it), plus the 2008 has such a sweet feel to it, once you start it up. Sure, it doesn't have the RWD, but I have to drive thru snow every now and then so I really appreciate the FWD. The navigations is accurate, and having voice recognition really helps so your eyes don't have to leave the road. Blue tooth phone adaptor is great.

It is a nice car. For the money, it is the best!

The interior of the car is flawless. Good handling, good performance.

Remove the vibration in the engine at @2000 RPM, it occures just b-4 the 2nd and 3rd shifts. Road noise.

2008 Acura TL Review:
The dealer says that the 08 TLs they drove had the same vibration, its built into all the 08 TLs. Other than this distraction it has performed really well.

2008 Acura TL Review:
Got it 4 weeks ago. Perfect balance between confort and sportiness. Looks fantastic!!! Drives too fast, so I'm worried about speeding tickets. When you get on freeway at confortable speed, you are at 90 mph. MPG is around 25, which is much better than I expected, because Ilike to open it up whenever i can.
