In 2023, I still love my 2014 TL w/155K on it. This car has aged pretty well, and the 2023 TLX doesn't even bring in as much HP's as this generation. I have had minimal issues, and all have been maintenance based (Oil Changes, Timing Belt replacement, Brakes, + 1 battery) . I think this car is a great used car pickup for those who are looking.

WHEN THE FIRST OF THE 4TH GEN TLs CAME OUT, WITH THE BEAK GRILLE, I DEFINITELY WASN'T A BIG FAN OF IT. SINCE THEN, THEY'VE REALLY STREAMLINED THE GRILLE AND IT LOOKS MUCH BETTER. ALSO, AS A BIT OF TIME HAS PASSED, IT'S KIND OF CRAZY BUT ITS DESIGN HAS GROWN ON ME AND IT SEEMS TO GAIN MORE RELEVANCE NOW THAN THE IMPRESSION IT FIRST MADE ON ME A FEW YEARS BACK. I FEEL THE 4TH GEN TL's DESIGN WAS AHEAD OF ITS TIME, BUT NOW I FEEL IT'S DESIGN ACTUALLY LOOKS GOOD TODAY AND FITS WELL AMONG TODAY'S MODERN URBAN BUILDINGS AND CITIES.

I own a '12 TL Advance and video can't fully capture the quality feel that the car transmits to its driver. And the driving experience is amazing! I love mine and will definitely be buying a TLX sometime in the future.

@yeeluvspizza
@yeeluvspizza 11 жыл бұрын
Yes, the recession was a big factor for the drop in sales....however there is no denying that someone really dropped the ball with the 4th gen. redesign. The 3rd gen. was such a timeless classic design, why make such dramatic changes like increasing the size of the vehicle to a point where it might as well be called a full size car? The rear downward slope of the roof was also a terrible change...on second thought, maybe the recession had less to do with the sales drop after all. Lol.

I have to agree with you. While Caddy is trying to be "edgy" and "cool" it comes across as boxy and hideous, lacking any styling other than right angles. In a sense, Caddy went back to the 80's and 90's style, where a box shaped car was ok. I'm more partial to curves and smooth corners. You'll notice none of the German companies are jumping on the right edge bandwagon, and even Lamborghini, who sort of has a right edge thing makes their cars look amazing somehow. Acura.. well they still look like an ugly vulture or hawk. It almost looks comical seeing one of these in my rear view mirror.

I see a lot of jokes and people poking fun at the Acura nameplate these days. Make no mistake of it Acura is the best car on the market you can buy period. Some might say Acura is boring, outdated needs to go back to japan. Acura/Honda sells just as well worldwide as most brands we presume are doing well. Honda motors always rank #1 or one of the best in safety, reliability, initial durability, and resale value no car maker on Earth can say that in one sentence. Acura is Honda's proving grounds meaning Acura gets it 1st then proves without a shadow of a doubt its of world beating quality and Honda trickles it down to the rest of the lineup. The 3.5 VTEC from the original NSX and Legend is the same V6 you see in over 50% of Honda vehicles today. Most of Acura's original cars from the 80s 90s are still on the road...Honda has never taken a bailout and has no outside investors or parent companies. Few automakers maybe Volkswagen/Toyota can say that either. This is coming from a guy who has purchased mostly GM for 18 years.

i got one on lease busters (base model). great deal, 9 months old. i think that base model is a good value. car is just too low tech and unattractive to buy full price.

I'm wondering if the third gen had sh-awd. In looks is arguable. But overall the 4th gen trumps the 3rd gen in just about everything else. I'm sorry but the 3rd gen TL Is not better than the 4th gen TL.

Aj Ev 3rd gen doesn’t have the AWD unfortunately and I think it looks better than this. Also, how is the 4th Gen better? It may have more power but it’s Waay to heavy to put it all down and I don’t see the sh-AWD beating a type s in a drag race

@@ChromeMan04 The 4th gen is better for one SHAWD will out handle any type s especially when both are pushed. Also cabin tech, now the 4th gen has USB bluetooth audio, 60 gigabyte harddrive that you can burn CDs into the dash distance markers on the reverse camera and the map graphics on the infotainment screen is better. On the advanced package blind spot monitoring and Three stage heated and cooled seats. Also on the I MID display the 3rd gen shows limited information. For example when the car overheats the 4th gen shows engine over temperature in the I MID, not just the temp indicator pointing to hot. That's just one example. Also the 4th gen do not have cracked dashboards looking like a road map on the passenger side airbag cover. Now as far as acceleration the SHAWD 4th gen with 6 speed manual 0-60 in 5.2 the type S 5.5 seconds. Now automatic vs automatic the 4th gen got a 6 speed auto from 2012 and up. I don't thing a type S with a 5 speed automatic and 286 horsepower can go 0-60 under 6 seconds. In fact the Nissan Maxima from that era can easily run with an automatic type S. Now let's be honest the type S was not the epitome of a sports sedan. The automatic lexus IS Infiniti G37 or G35 the BMW 330 and so on has been eating the type S for lunch. I'm a true Honda Acura fan however everyone is looking at the looks of the car instead of the substance. To be honest I think the 4th gen looks more upscale than the 3rd gen, and looks more premium. I say that 3rd gen TL type S is overrated and the 4th gen TL is underrated. At least Acura had enough sense to not call the 4th gen tl a type S knowing last type S was getting smoked by the competition with Automatics. I love Honda Acura I really do but I see the type S for what it was. The one thing I will give credit to the type S or any 3rd gen TL was the top speed, certain years and models were good for 155 mph. But my brother's 5 series (528) BMW is good for 130 MPH. At the end of the day I can live with the 4th gen top speed of 130-135mph. The 3rd gen TL was a good looking car no doubt.

Aj Ev 4th gens are too heavy, my friend race a stock type s and lost badly. I don’t know about the 0-60 times but in terms of weight the 3rd gen is better hands down

@@ChromeMan04 ok being heavier doesn't mean slower. Put professional drivers in both then you will see the difference. Loosing badly I seriously doubt that. If you are talking about weight ok 3rd gen is better but overall performance I dont think so. Would I buy a 3rd gen type s TL absolutely. But I see pros and cons to both generations of the TL.

KardiFan2000 neither has anyone else. They've shown the TLX concept, but no one knows for sure how much of that design is going to make it into the production version. That said, I agree with OneOfOne. Most Acura's look terrible, have no where near the luxury appointment of proper premium brands. I'm amazed the brand still even exists

I have a 2008 honda accord v6 exl with navigation. I also have a TL Shawd, having both if the TL is a Guised up Accord its Guised up really good. Put the Accord and the TL at 85-90 mph on the interstate the TL is engineered different that's for sure. Now the 9th Gen Accord is really nice about everything, Especially the Touring V6. If a person like to drive like me I'll take the Acura. That being said the Accords are really good though.

It’s not a guisesd accord they don’t even share the same components. An accord is made cheaper than the TL and looks less appealing too. 278 hp? The AWD makes 305 HP.
