Very popular in its segment, the 2008 Acura TL is also the most popular Acura
out there. It is an economically priced luxury sedan that has it above its
European competitors in value, reliability and standard features. Returning to
the Acura stable this year is the TL-S, a hopped up, high performance version
with a 285hp 3.8L V6 engine sitting on a road-tuned suspension and big brakes.
The TL received some styling and performance refreshing this year and is as
good-looking as ever.
The exterior design of the TL is accentuated by the bold angular grille, whose
lines continue on down the sides of the vehicle in clean, sharp lines. The
headlights address the same lines as they flare up and back. The interior is
clean and functional with logical placement of all gauges and controls.
Tastefully elegant upholstery treatments contrast with a utilitarian Bauhaus
feeling. A three-spoke steering wheel is a control center in itself with buttons
for audio, navigation and phone inset.
Many owners purchase Acura TL accessories to individualize their sedans. Add the
distinctive touch of wood grain or carbon fiber to the console and steering
wheel. Imagine the difference a wing spoiler, nose mask or a moonroof visor
would make to the outside of your 2008 TL. Nothing adds more style to a car that
the look of 17 or 18-inch chrome wheels.
While many people are impressed with the performance of their TL, many more
appreciate what Acura puts into the TL for the sake of safety. The Acura TL
installs dual-stage dual-threshold airbags for the driver and front passenger,
side and curtain airbags, and child-proof door locks. With as much effort Acura
puts into building a performance-oriented luxury sedan, there is no reason for
them to skimp on safety.
