I did not realize the TL tops at 152 mph. That's pretty fast.

I am surprised at these times. You'd think those huge wheels and tires would steal a tenth of two from the base model. Then again, I am thinking it grips better... But THAT much better!?!?

How come the 0-60 times is much faster than the 5-60mph times? Wouldnt the FWD car be faster from a roll?


Acura paid them off.

I know you said forget it... but... BMW paid em off too

BMW 545i
Zero to 60 mph: 5.5 sec
Street start, 5-60 mph: 6.0 sec

And to lessen how assinine I am, that's for comparson. 3.2 V6 vs. 4.5 V8. Good shit, Acura.

Found these in the archives. I didn't search but I don't think they are in the Photo Gallery. Looks like the 05 won't change much, so these are good pictures that show lots of views and colors of the 04TL.

Those taillights are off the A-Spec concept car from a couple years ago. Not bad. Now if only it had SH-AWD...

I hope not. The headlights look like crap and the same goes for the taillights. Looks like they cheapened up the TL in those pics.
