oh man the acura TL-S is awsome!!!

[Ameesh]

I am very very tempted to buy this car! what do you guys think? it looks like its gonna be 30.5k and probably another 10% for licesing and registration. so around 33k out the door. it drives great (at least i thought so) any opinions?

Drive other cars before you make your decision. For the money i'd rather have a german car.

 

[Ameesh]

like what a mercedes? i need specfics . danka!

Check out this thread, I think for the money not even German engineering can touch this car.

 

[Ameesh]

thanks this guy seems to like his tl-s, its really roomy and i dont hit my head on the cieling.

 

[Ameesh]

oh sorry about the repost

I've been in love with this car since last summer when the rumours of the Type-S for the TL were surfacing. Have you checked out Acura-TL.com? The members of the forum over there are very helpful.

If you want more information about your great car check out this thread =D:

oh i havent bought it yet, but i am very seriously thinking about it (considering my car broke and i need transportation)

thanks for the links! im reading them now

the acura tl-s is crazy..my friend just bought one and its soo fast. go for it, you won't be sorry.

personally, i'd get the cl-s but thats cuz i like coupes

 

[Ameesh]

the cl-s is nice too practilly the same car, just two doors , i dont like getting in and out of two door cars, plus people in the back are never comfortable. but yeah your right if you like 2 door cars the cl-s is nice, i would say 15-20% more sporty then the tl.


oh another thing i forgot to say is the inside is awsome the windshield seems sooo big like you can see more of the road.

Don't they cost a lot more to repair tho?

If I had the money, the TL Type S would definitely be on my short list. However, from what I've read about the upcoming Jaguar X-Type, it could be a great car as well.

I also followed the X-Type briefly on a couple of forums dedicated to cars, and came away with a feeling that they aren't reliable. They used to be horrid before Ford came in, but now they still can't measure up to the reliability of other makes.

im gonna have to buy on july 4th weekend, if wait past that the next big sale comes on memorial day which is way too far away.

Good point. I expect the quality and reliability of Acura's to be above average right up there with Lexus.

The car looks sweet but my dream car is the Lexus GS 400.
