2002 Acura TL 3.2 - Type "S" review from North America
"Best Car I've Ever Owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not Much.
Black trim on the outside is tape & is starting to develop bubbles. Not a good choice f/outside use.
General comments?
This is my second Acura. First one was a 1990 Legend "L". Absolutely great car.
So it was natural that I'd upgrade to the 2002 Acura 3.2 TL - Type "S". This is the BEST CAR I've ever owned. It does everything well. Reliable, solid, quiet, fast, agile & smooth. Oh yes, did I mention it is *fast* too?
Only wish it had come with: an electronic compass & a computer that calculates miles-to-empty, current mileage, etc. This is a top notch car, but these little items should have been included. But, in fairness, there are lots of other high-end goodies included with this car.
