I have now driven all the models of this chassis (Accord/TSX/TL). I must say that the TL is its best execution. Nice styling, interior, build quality, seats. Awesome stereo. The handling is excellent for this FWD sedan, simlilar to the 9-5 Aero, I think. However, the handling of my 9-3 Arc blows it away. (I haven't found any FWD car that comes close yet).
What I can't figure out, however, is where the 270hp is! I couldn't find it.
I drove the automatic (demo car with 500+ miles already). Acceleration was sluggish to me, even in highway passing. Even the 9-3 Linear, I think, feels peppier. Maybe it was just me....
All in all, a very nice car. However, I think if buying in this model line I would probably get the 4-cyl Accord for 20+K, and consider it a great bargain, and pass on the TL...
