Insides are a bit plain, dashboard lighting could be a bit more splashy.

What can I say...initially was looking into Lexus, BMW, Volkswagen new GLX Passat. Once I drove this baby I was in love! It's got speed and smoothness and the pickup kicks bmw 3series, audi a4 and saab^5's butt!

Bang for the buck. Interior, and trunk space. Horsepower Fun. Stealth like attitude. Makes you want to go FAST.....AND YOU CAN!!

The stereo could have a little more beef. I like the "Non-External" antenna, however I notice the reception suffers. The dark interior looks nice but the Damn Texas Summer is eating my lunch (But thats not the cars fault!) I would like to have seen a one touch window open and close for all windows and the sunroof. Also a pop-up rear sunshade would be a real bonus if offered.

I have enjoyed this car, overall. The horsepower is impressive backed by a smooth shifting transmission. Handling is responsive, and tight enough to get the job done. The interior is clean and flows well. It has a love or hate dark wood/marble looking trim, that I personally like and so does my wife. I have read articles claiming that anyone around 6 ft. tall will have a problem with the headroom. I am 6'1" and I have not noticed a problem. I also like the smooth crisp lines of the exterior. It looks classy, but yet has that "I can't sit still" look.

Serious contenders for me: Volvo S-60, IS300, 330I, Maxima. I Thought maybe: I30, Passat, ES300

Power, transmission, handling. I actually like its subdued looks. It's not flashy, but delivers the goods, which is better than the other way around. Real luxury at a good price.

Radio could pack more punch. Back seats should be able to fold 60/40. Control buttons should be arranged together rather than spread around (radio on one side, cruise control and sunroof on the other). (Not much to gripe about)

Just got the car a week ago, so I cannot talk about its reactions when pushed very hard, but first impression is extremely positive. Firm yet smooth ride, precise handling, quiet and well-finished. Yes, the faux-wood looks a bit cheap (in black, which is one of the reason I chose a blue exterior/tan interior model) and the radio is not fantastic, but those are fairly small stuff. I am 6'2" and have no problem with head room.

I had a Volvo S-70 T-5. It was great on the highway, but bulky in the city. It had spongy breaks, terrible gas consumption and a really annoying turbo lag. Worst, I was at the dealer every 6 to 8 weeks for minor-yet-time-consuming repairs (all under warranty, but still, I was expecting something much more reliable). Final note. People should stop comparing this car to Series 3 BMW. It is not as sporty or nimble as a 330, but the real comparison is with a Series 5 model, for size, confort and the like. And then, there is no comparison. A 5 BMW with similar engine and trim (a slightly better car, no doubt) costs between 50% and 60% more. I like their car, but I don't like getting screwed, hence the Acura!

Value when compared to others in it's class with similar options. The engine - this car will win nearly all stop light races. A blast to drive. High quality interior. Acura/Honda quality and low cost maintenance. Big bang for the buck. At $5000.00 more this car would still be a bargain. A great car for someone with a family, and a strong desire to have fun while driving. Unfortunately I sense that there may be a few speeding tickets in my future if I'm not careful. Hard to keep it less than 80 mph on the highway. Super stable at 90+.

Interior road noise is fairly loud. Even though the suspension is pretty tight and the wheels are low profiel (50 series) I'd still expect it to be quieter. I find the stereo to be fine with treble and bass adjustments. A real nitpicky thing is that bottled water in the cup holders interferes with arm position when using the sport shift.

This car is very fast and very responsive. Very high level of quality, fit and finish. Amazing value as every conceivable option is standard, except the nav. A very high tech car. Overall design, while not radical, is sporty, mildly aggressive, and pleasing to the eye. Nice lines.

Considered BMW, Lexus, Nissan Maxima and new 240 hp Altima. None could match the value combined with all of the strengths listed above. And reading reviews about the BMW's reliability and maintenance costs has me wondering why I ever considered them in the first place

Engine,style, love the style they design, HID lights,6 disc cd changer (only in model 2002 TL)

oH SH*T,bought this car a 2 months ago and realize that this is car now, has really cheap paint, I get scratches every week when I wash it and the paint is so cheap 2. Bose is a good brand, cause I have their home theather surround sound speaker but hearing the bose in tl is a disgrace, the treble is ok, but their is no bass what so ever and the woofer that comes in tl is useless,waste of space.

Whoa, amazing engine, smooth and quiet ride during in the road.Really luxury inside, nice leather,good moonroof,everything seems to be really nice.I like the v6 225 horsepower engine , strong as an ox.good price when almost everything is well equip.

(Hey everyoone that is ready this review can you please answer this question, is it possible for me to do compound at a another dealer but not acura like for example can I go audi dealer and ask them to repaint my car or bmw dealer to get it done, cause I heard that acura paint are way too cheap. (anyone that is reading this please write back.

Value, its powerful yet smooth engine, interior design, navigation system, the powerful A/C unit, its smoothness and many more I am sure I haven't yet realize since I just got the car 2 days ago.

Front-end styling, not enough range and bass on the Boss stereo, lack of rear sun-shade (the Infiniti I-30 has it,) the door handles (Acura should switch them to the Mercedes pull-out style, they give a more upscale feel.)

Love the interior design! The navigation system should be on everyone's list. The engine is quite amazing, it's quiet, smooth and FAST! It was love at first drive.

I30: this Infiniti drives more like a Nissan Maxima. I own a Infiniti QX4 and dealer gives me an I30 to drive when I go for a service, so I know I30 pretty well. Its engine doesn't feel as powerful eventhough its horsepower is similar to that of TL. Seat is not as comfortable. Stereo is a bit better than TL, eventhough I30 also has a BOSS stereo, too. Front end styling is more attractive, or should I say, more chrome than TL. However, TL handles way better and interior design and material feel is of a better quality than the I30.
BMW 325i: I was seriously considering the BMW. However, after looking over the standard equipment list and most importantly of all, reading people's comments on their own experiences, many poor reliability comments, I was scared away from the BMW. I mean, I want a car, not a spoiled brat.
Accord coupe V6: Navigation system and Xenon headlight are not on the option list. Otherwise, I might end up with one.
