[@cryptominerlife2498]

This car is awesome! Just bought my first car and it ended up being a 2018 Acura tlx. Best decision I have made

[@AYouTubeChannelwithNoName]

I just bought my first Acura. It is a used 2018. Exact same car. I LOVE IT! It feels luxury for a base model. I am enjoying it 😊

[@Piper-Down-EZ]

Congrats!!!

[@Piper-Down-EZ]

Update I got this same car last month! love it!

[@2laidragon]

The driving of the base model vs the top fully loaded ones are not much different. It feels exactly the same, not worth paying an extra 20,000. Good choice!

I have the 2018 TLX 3.5L V6 A-Spec and I love it!! The red leather is magnificent, the roar of then engine paired with a ridiculously smooth ride, its like heaven on 19" wheels.

[@GWoodCars]

solid car.

[@MrChupacabradude]

Watching this today because I jist bought one for $19k with 23k miles. I'm very excited and happy with this car because I previously owned a 2013 Rouge 😂

[@raulmelo5881]

i have a mazda 3 and my mom has one of these , absolutely love driving the car any chance i get , would love to try the a spec one day

[@annegray68]

I just bought a TLX 2018. Thank you so much for this video. You do mention everything it comes with, but you don’t really explain what the functions do. For example, You show us certain functions on the steering wheel, but you don’t tell us what they’re for. I know there’s some button on mine that is like assisted cruise control or something like that, but it is not explained.

[@Matscars]

My moms fiancé is selling a 2018 Acura tlx 2.4 for 12k but offered it to me for 10k but it has 120k miles… should I get it with that many miles?

[@DevineLoved]

[@DUNEATV]

Timothy S I love it! They gave me incentive Money $4000 off and $1800 loyalty cash for owning an Acura already. Got it for 28k plus tax. The 8 speed DCT transmission is amazing

[@harisqureshi7469]

[@paulemile4933]

Is the TLX cabin quieter inside than the 2018 Accord ? Also which car drives better..and why ?

[@GWoodCars]

It is night and day. Contrary to what some believe, the TLX is not a rebadged Accord. They are different platforms. The TLX has much more sound absorbing material and higher grade material making for a quieter cabin. The door panels are thicker, theres covers in the wheel wells and Acura has a small noise cancelling microphone inside the cabin to help in reducing outside sounds. Acura also has triple layer side windows (glass, laminate, glass) you can see when you roll down the windows. All you need to do is sit in both, just by slamming the door you can tell the difference. Which drives better is subjective. The TLX 4cyl has more power (206 vs. 190 on honda) and puts it down to the ground better, imo. The 2.4 NON turbo engine+the traditional 8-speed dual clutch tranny has been used for years, Honda reserved this only for Acura's, I believe and at this point, its as reliable as you can get. The Honda uses a pretty small turbo engine (1.5L) which always tend to have a little lag. Although it puts out enough power, its a big car so its working hard which translates to noise. It also uses a CVT tranny which although are getting much better, they still feel odd sometimes and kinda mushy. Overall, The Honda is geared towards value and economy, more stuff for your money while Acura is geared towards a premium drive and performance. Acura also offers all-wheel drive options on their cars that really elevate handling while Honda does not offer this on theirs.

[@2laidragon]

@@GWoodCars i totally agree with you. One time i was in an Accord 2.0t Uber, and i was thinking OMG! It’s so noisy compared with my TLX V6. I got the base V6 FWD and the dealer gave me a price of $30,600 brand new and I’m thinking it cost less than an Accord 2.0T that has leather. So my whole take on this experience is to always to get a base biggest engine Acura instead of an upgraded Honda.

[@cindymiller2748]

I bought the same base model but 2019. Things I love: Exterior styling, LED headlight design/illumination, LED taillight design/illumination, very quiet cabin at all speeds, smart entry sensor on door (not just a button), decent sound system and fake leather interior (I'm vegan). Things I hate (with a passion): Front passenger seat cannot be raised. Several adults have told me it's too low for their comfort. No spare tire...just a cheap fix a flat kit. Had to purchase a $150.00 spare donut tire for peace of mind. Two infotainment screens are totally unnecessary and clutters the dashboard and it takes way too many inputs to turn on the heated seats. Come on Acura...my daughter has a 2018 Hyundai Elantra 4 door which cost $15K less and it comes with a spare tire, the front passenger seat CAN be raised, has a much better looking dashboard with 1 infotainment screen and only one push of a button turns on the heated seat.

[@GWoodCars]

Yes, the interior infotainment is criticized alot for being outdated. I personally like to dual screen as I like that there is one screen dedicated to the radio and the other screen to everything else. Im not sure why so many manufacturers have opted to delete a spare tire from cars. Ive heard many things from saving weight for fuel efficiency to cost savings to avoiding state tire taxes. I know California has a tire tax and if theres a spare its extra cost but mostly it has to do with MPG regulations. less weight means the manufacturer can most likely give their car a higher MPG rating to meet more strict MPG regulations. This is why SUV's and trucks over a certain weight have spares because they are exempt from such regulations. The hyundai elantra is a very efficient, light car and having a spare probably didnt effect its ratings much.

[@RomaneMaticaliseGordon]

I don’t know about the base model, but every TLX I’ve ever driven has the ability to raise the height of the seat

[@TriCop]

I don’t know what model you have but I have the base 2018 TLX and I can raise it. Try lifting up the handle that moves your seat forward and backwards

[@2laidragon]

@@GWoodCars i totally agree with you. The IPad that comes with newer cars these days are totally an eye sore and doesn’t flow with the dashboards at all including the newest TLX now. These dual screen actually work really well with Apple Car Play.

[@2laidragon]

@@RomaneMaticaliseGordon i think they meant not high enough.
