Acura TL, My Next Vehicle?
Mar 8th, 2007 by Alex
I’ve been saying that I’m going to drive my SL2 into the ground, but recently I’ve been noodling with the idea of buying a new car. I’ve currently got my sights set on the TL. It’s a mid-size luxury sedan from Acura. A bit bigger than what I’m used to but with far nicer appointments. The official site is incredibly slow, even on a decent machine. There’s some decent information on Wikipedia about the series.

Sexy, isn’t it?
Bottom line, it’s a really nice car. Slick looking and with relatively low road noise. Configured with all the bells and whistles, it’s just under $40,000 new. That’s $25,000 more than my last car cost new, custom-built for me. There are certified pre-owned vehicles as well which are covered by a just-a-long-if-not-longer warranty. There are a couple 2006 models with navigation and about 10,000 miles on ‘em for around $30,000. I’m seriously tempted.
