Even with its Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system, we found that the Acura TL still isn't as engaging as rear-drive cars like the Infiniti M or BMW 5 Series.
The Acura TL marries the size of a BMW 5 Series with the lower price of an Infiniti G37 Sedan, but doesn't capture the performance feel of either. Front-wheel drive (FWD) and synthetic steering feel combine in a car that's neither as engaging around town nor as capable at the limits compared to some of its more storied rear-wheel-drive competitors.

"Bought it used with <30000 miles on it, now have 75k. I have the full Technology Package- highly recommended. I use prem gas & synth oil and am handsomely rewarded with great engine performance.
