It looks like crap. This very own board freaking POLL shows majority HATE the styling.
Performance? It’s laughable against the competition. It fails versus C350, IS350, G37, CTS, and 335i (see below my Edmunds quote). TL is UGLY and SLOW, period.

Again, for slow people who cannot follow . The point is Acura TL is NOT a sports sedan as it claimed to be. Inside comfort and technology feature along with good interior room, yes. Nothing else. Obsolete engine, terrible performance, ugly exterior. 14.8@97mph performance is identical to a family car like Accord V6 and failure against REAL SPORTS/LUXURY cars like 335i, G37 and IS350. Get a clue and enjoy your own and Acura failure.

This is one thing that really gets under my skin.

I saw an ad touting it as the most powerful Acura ever along with tons of other BS. That's great and all but the extra 400lbs more than cancels out the hp gain, not to mention the 3-4mpg reduction.

So what would you have the ad say? "The most powerful Acura ever...by 5 horsepower."
