2002 Acura Tl Type-s Sedan 4-door 3.2l With Navigation on 2040-cars

Year:2002 Mileage:193000
Location:

Wethersfield, Connecticut, United States

Wethersfield, Connecticut, United States

4 New Hancook performance tires "W" rated (168mph) were mounted to this car under 7,000 miles ago.  The car handles excellent in the dry and wet conditions.  (Note they are not snow tires)  This has been well maintained throughout the 6 years I have owned it.  In fact there has been very little to do with repairs for this car other than normal maintenance.  Now I know why my mechanic recommends Acuras.  They last forever.   The car has 193,000 miles on it.  I bought it at 49k miles and the majority of the 144k miles I have driven it have been highway and rural streets.  Everything on the car is operational.  There are some scratches and dings as well as a cosmetic dent in the rear passenger side panel that I caused by hitting a parked truck in Dec 2013.  I had the car painted with the original factory paint color in 2012 because the original paint was wearing so the car has a newer appearance.  I have purchased another newer Acura that was such a good value that I couldn't pass it up.  I can get in this 2002 Acura TL and drive it out of state or cross country without hesitation in the condition it is in today.  There is a small rip in the each of the front leather seats but they are still comfortable.

Acura TSX Sport Wagon on the way out?

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

With Acura widely expected to consolidate its TSX and TL sedans into one model line in the near future, the fate of the TSX Sport Wagon is unsurprisingly in doubt. The long-rumored one-for-two sedan replacement is said to be dubbed TLX, and will sit above the Honda Civic-derived ILX, a model that already encroaches on the TSX's pricing and size. According to Ward's Auto, Acura officials are refusing to confirm that today's TSX wagon - effectively a re-schnozzed European-market Accord estate - is facing extinction. Reading the tea leaves, however, things certainly don't look good - the European Accord itself is said to be on the bubble and may not be replaced.
The TSX Sport Wagon was brought to the US as a niche play for the 2011 model year, with Acura of Canada taking a pass on the bodystyle. Officials said at the time that it hoped to shift 4,000 units per annum, roughly a 10-percent sliver of US TSX sales. And while Acura doesn't normally break out the wagon in its sales reports, Autoblog was able to obtain the model's totals for the last two years: the company sold 3,210 Sport Wagons in 2011, improving to 4,234 units last year. The current 2013 model began trickling into showrooms in December, but some dealers are still looking to clear out remaining 2012 models at handsome discounts.

Acura aiming for Chinese production by 2016

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Not wanting to be left out of the emerging luxury car bonanza in China, Automotive News is reporting that Acura could begin producing vehicles in the Asian country by 2016. Like Audi, Mercedes-Benz and BMW, Acura will reportedly build vehicles in China using a local partner - Guangzhou Automobile Group Co. in Acura's case - while Cadillac and Infiniti will build their own vehicles locally.
Guangzhou already produces Honda models in China, but the article says that the first Acura produced in that country could be a new compact model based on the Acura SUV-X Concept (shown above), a showcar revealed in April at the Shanghai Motor Show. China's luxury car market is expected to grow to 2.7 million units a year by the end of this decade, which would put it on pace to make it the largest premium car market in the world.

Acura teams with Galpin to sport-up the 2015 TLX

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Acura used the SEMA Show this week to remind enthusiasts that it still considers itself a performance brand, teaming with Galpin Auto Sports to build a TLX that highlights Acura's sporting and racing heritage.
The TLX is painted a deep shade of blue, called Andaro, and the color will be used on the NSX supercar when it returns to the United States in 2015. It rolls on custom gray wheels with gunmetal and "liquid smoke" pieces, and they're wrapped in Pirelli P Zero rubber. The exterior design is punched up with a body kit that adds side skirts, a rear spoiler and new bumpers to create a more sinister look.
The TLX has a sport suspension kit with coilovers with 36-way adjustable damping. There's also brake upgrades and custom exhaust outlets.
