The outside does look pretty darn good and i even really like it in that color.

I'm a Toyota fanboy through and though, but last summer my wife and I test drove a 2020 V6 Acura TLX w/15k miles. The car is phenomenal and we bought it immediately. Been 7 or 8 months now and we still love the car, I'm surprised how much I enjoy driving it. Acura should have stuck with the two display screens, having the nav/car play always on when using the other screen like the Infinity Q50 is so nice. No touch screen, Booo! This car looks amazing though

The touch screen can be fixed with an aftermarket screen. It is a bummer it didn’t come like that from the factory.

The only problem I have with the TLX is that it's a midsize sedan on the outside but a compact sedan on the inside. Somehow Acura has managed to take a layout that favors interior space (FWD) and made it smaller than a RWD car inside.

The TLX and its predecessors have always been like this,,,,,. I have no idea why they have stuck with it, other than it sells ok, just ok. Honda’s motors lately though,,,,,,,. I’m out!! Even the Ridgeline!! Stop sales orders,,,,. Honda’s screen philosophies are messed up. They waste so much space to the transmission buttons and touch pads vs touch screens,,,, totally wasted space. The TLX’s ARE very comfortable for the two front occupants mind you.

Honda/Acura, enhance the engine sounds through the stereo. All TLX models have it. There are several forums on how to disable the enhancements so your stereo sounds better when it’s not pumping out music & the reverse sound waves, whatever they want to call it. You can tell the audio inside didn’t match the outside. It’s more subtle than some systems, but it’s still there.

I disagree. It's priced 10k less than it's main competitor, the m340i when specd out similarly. I drove both vehicles on the same day and thought the m340i felt quicker, but both cars feel like they have plenty of power, in my opinion. I ended up buying the acura and love it.

Love it!!

The TLX is handsome!!! Proof that Honda knows how to make good looking cars. They failed with the Accord redesign.

He is so right about this. Love Acura. It’s a head turner when this passes you on highway. The back reminds of Old timeless integra with those lights. Just right dynamics besides back row seats (few inches won’t hurt to add) Best reliability comfort and speed plus a status of brand 👏 must like 👍🏼 for Acura from me here

I agree...its gorgeous...best looking in its class

I couldn't disagree on the design. It looks super sharp, especially in that color combo. This and the Kia K5 are the best designed modern mid-size sedans for the mainstream.

For modern cars 2024 Acura TLX Type S, Supra & Model Y Performance are really good looking vehicles.

Maybe best looking Acura after the NSXs. 3td gen TL is close too.

I agree with gear lever buttons. It needs to go

The most attractive Acura is the old NSX, what are you talking about Nathan?

Acura shouldn't get rid of the TouchPad. However, they should make the infotainment touchscreen as well

The rear brakes should be at least 2 piston calipers esp since its supposed to be a " sports" car. It still has manual adjusting steering column for $60k. Slowest in its class.

Thanks for the review Luke Combs

I will agree that this car looks amazing. I love the look of the front end (much better than Lexus's spindle design). The whole car looks very well thought out. If I were in the market for a sedan, this would be very high on the list. However, for almost $60K, I think I would find myself considering other options. Be it a CUV, SUV, or truck. There has to be a very limited market for a $60K sedan these days. Although there is a market. And maybe Acura is OK with that, knowing it won't be a volume seller.

I really wish the infotainment was a touch screen instead of a touchpad. They should of used the acccord touring screen

The integra type S is the better looking sedan hatch imo.

Exterior styling is a thumbs up but the interior still needs work. No excuse for a design that gives the owner the optics of a child's tablet Gorilla glued to the top of the dash. Design is always subjective and I still feel the Alfa Romeo Giulia remains the king of attractive four-door sedans and in Veloce form, is a few tenths shy of the significantly more expensive A Spec. Truth be told most.Giulias run more in line with the type r addition of the TLX, cost-wise. I'm not sure they're going to sell a ton of these with most stickering, probably in the mid 60s if not high 60s but it's a solid effort from a brand that needs some momentum in this sector.

Hope these don’t have the wrong crank bearings. Wth happened to Honda?

The stinger has the worse interior tho. And reliability it’s questionable. Id personally take the TLX unless you are short on money. The stinger is a bargain tho. You are getting 300 hp and awd for 20k so its not bad,

The touchpad really suck for a “luxury sport sedan” and there is no need to be so heavy for a 6 cylinder

Finally, no Europeans just some good old JDM

I love the Alex Jones car reviews.

Interior is reminiscent of a 2010 Nissan Murano, subpar to say the least at this price point.

I really want to like Acuras but their interiors don't do it for me.Too many weird curves, materials, and odd design features. It reminds me of a FCA/Stellantis product. I read somewhere that there were 5 different materials in the corner of the door, A pillar, and dash. Some may be able to get over it, but spending $58K on something and having too look at that interior every day would not work for me.

To me, it's fine. What I'm not a fan of is that push button shifter and the fact that the infotainment screen isn't a touchscreen. Lexus tried that for years and everybody hated it, so they ditched it. I wonder why Acura hasn't ditched the touch pad thing yet.
