The Acura TL is an Accord, right?
I love the new Acura TL. I'm starting to see more and more of them on
the road. (I actually don't know how new the current body style is, but I have been noticing them more and more over the past 6 months.) I'd love to get one, but should I save my money and get a new Accord instead? Of course, the Honda doesn't have the cool image of the Acura, but the bodies are virtually identical on these cars. Is the engine in the TL available in the Accord? Thanks! Mike |
Re: The Acura TL is an Accord, right?
The Acura requires Premium gasoline; the Accord regular. Biggest
objection I had while shopping at the Acura dealers. They are very nice autos, and I really wanted one. Mike wrote: > I love the new Acura TL. I'm starting to see more and more of them on > the road.

They bore out Accord engine and put a high-compression head to give it more oomph, but, as another poster pointed out, it then requires high-test. The TL was quieter, had more comfortable seats, a much nicer audio system and included more goodies (self-dimming mirror, fog lights, memory powers eats, etc.) some of which you can add to the Accord as options and some you can't. We made our pitch to both dealers for the best price and would have had to pop for $6K more for the TL. We took the Accord as it just didn't seem worth it. The Accord has been a *great* car. Still miss those damn memory seats, though. Jon |

I am amazed at how obnoxious the web site is. Still didn't find memory
seats, auto locking doors or auto headlights that turn on in the dark and when the wipers are on. <learnfpga@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1149796982.856042.105460@g10g2000cwb.googlegr oups.com... > Check out the Honda Accord Saloon on the British Honda website and you > will be amazed.... > http://www.honda.co.uk > > > Zeppo wrote: >> "Mike" <tetrickm@hotmail.com> wrote in message >> news:1149707350.550908.47330@j55g2000cwa.googlegro ups.com... >> > I love the new Acura TL.
