A good balance of power, fuel economy and reliability I'm still a fan of naturally aspirated V6s.

Great car! A lot of haters but - I love ACURA! The TLX 2018 is actually faster than the 7.4 he gives it. I’ve run it and it comes in closer to 6 seconds. Red leather seats, badging, 19” wheels, and SHAWD makes the car. I highly recommend looking at one up close and driving it. Awesome -

As an Acura owner, they need to step their game up, they are seriously lacking in the speed and design departments.

No cars handle like Acura's. I've worked at a Mercedes dealer and our base 2012 TL blows any of the AMG's out of the water. I would love to get my hands on one of these. The design has stepped up and this is by far the best value for a luxury sports sedan. Nobody else will give you this for $45, 000.

I'm so done with the well above sea level tests.
Gives so many people a misconception on some great cars.

The last good Acura was the TL type S 6 speed manual

I just have a feeling that everyone just has a problem with the brand, not the cars. People continously say that it's down on power ETC when a regular 3 series has just 300 Hp. The Lexus is 350 is still NA WITH just 15 more horsepower. The next generation of Acura is going to be the best. And everyone says that it's just an Accord which its not. Half of these negative comments never even driven a TLX to make that conclusion. Because if it's not the power that's the issue then they say it's the interior which is waaay better and different .

Remember how nice Infiniti’s and Acura’s were? When the G37 and TL both made over 300 hp handled amazingly and looked like nothing aka sleepers. I miss 2010

That's why i refuse to give up my 2012 acura tl 3.7 awd supercharged 306hp 💯💯💯

The new Accord 2.0T kind of makes the TLX irrelevant. A V6 is nice but 290hp isn't going to cut it in its segment. I like the A-spec look but it needs the powertrain to back it up.

They couldn’t At least make the engine 300 hp !

No wonder the RLX doesn't sell, this car looks freakin' sweet!

My mother has an 04 A spec and my grandmother has a a 06 S type, I want to get one of these cars now they’re bringing back an awesome model.

That’s a beautiful car. My neighbor has one and it looks great in person. And on sea level, that car is quick.

I have a 08 TL type s and am really considering trading it in for a new TLX . I took mine in for the timing belt change and they gave me a 18 TLX for a loaner. It did have the tech package but was FWD. I liked it and when I took it back I test drove the A Spec. It was great looks good and was fast enough for me. I don't need three cars (have an 15 Durango) If I ever get rid of my TL it will be for the A Spec! Blue with Black interior

Great video! I've always been a fan of the Acura TLX, and this review of the 2018 Acura TLX A-Spec was spot on. The detailed explanation of the handling package and unique badges really helped me understand what sets the A-Spec version apart. The power of the 3.5-liter V6 engine and the smoothness of the nine-speed automatic transmission are impressive. The exterior design changes for the A-Spec, like the grille, headlights, and rear spoiler, give it a sporty and aggressive look. Overall, this review was informative and engaging. Keep up the great work, The Fast Lane Car!

I felt the same way about this car, wasn't impressed with how speedy it was. I ended up in a V6 Accord Touring and much happier and wallet is heavier.

AS A DAILY DRIVER 290HP IS PERFECT FEELS PERFECT WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT.

My mother recently got a 2019 MDX, I was happy and excited and all then I realized, the J series is a 20 year old engine that still uses a timing belt with no significant updates

In the video you stated that the TLX competes with the "Infiniti QX50" but it actually is the "Infiniti Q50s" :)
