Fraud Warning
Found this review (2005 TL) on MSN Auto. The individual generalized the TL as a total POS. All the other reviews were positive with high 9's and 10's. He must have had a real bad experience with Acura. This doesn't come close to describing our cars.
"**** FRAUD WARNING ****"
2005 Acura TL 6-Spd MT
07/05/2005
By: An MSN Autos Consumer
Owned: Less than 1 year
Review ID: #473500
PROS
Nothing
CONS:
Disgustingly cheap, piss-poor quality, horrible performance, miserably unreliable. Dealers refuse to honor warranties. Wilful fraud.
OVERALL REVIEW:
Acura designs and manufactures disgustingly cheap products and misrepresents them as luxury cars. Acura wilfully defrauds every customer. Life’s too short to suffer with an Acura. I made the mistake of purchasing a new TL based on my experience with a late model Accord. I should have kept the Accord. The Accord was a significantly superior automobile in every respect. An Acura has no quality, no reliability, no performance, no comfort, and absolutely no support. Acura makes the worst cars on the market today. There are better cars available at your local junk yard for less than $100. Due to all the defects, pathetic quality & reliability, insufferable performance, complete lack of service, excessive repair bills, lawsuits, and the misery inflicted on me by Acura and it’s dealers I replaced the car after only 3 months. If you purchase one of these disasters you’ll be subject to the same abuse. Don’t be Acura’s next fraud victim. You’ll be miserable as long as you’re stuck with it.

HAHA, I thought that was funny saying that the TL is a POS compared to an Accord, when the TL is somewhat a better version of the Accord, and saying that Acura makes crappy cars is basically saying Honda sucks which is wrong. The person probaly bought a f*cked up TL and he should be introduced to this forum.

I'd never buy another Acura, but I still love my TL.
But IMHO
Honda > Acura
Honda Service by far > Acura
Toyota > Acura
above statement is based on my experience
