Re: C&D shoot-out
They only got a 0-60 in 6.3 and the quarter at 14.6@ 99. The TL was quicker in 0-60. But the G was quicker in 0-100 and 0-120 (by 1.5 seconds). In handling, the G destroyed the TL. They actually used the word "spooky" refering to the TL's handling....but, hey, I could have told you that.....

Re: C&D shoot-out
what were the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times for theTL? i have to say i have owned Acuras in the past (96 legend and RL) and this new TL is actually a really nice looking car, a lot lot better than the previous TL. i still have to say that the Legend was the best looking Acura, and the RL and the new TL are pretty close. the G still is far better looking than any Acura to date (not including the NSX). TL interior is pretty sweet though, and it has Blue Tooth. i wish my car had Blue Tooth!

Re: C&D shoot-out
The TL had a 0-60 in 5.8 sec. The motor is sweet, no doubt. The chassis, though, is just not up to sport sedan standards. Way too front heavy. A highway crusier. Or maybe a Japanses Seville STS. If I was getting a Acura, I would have gone with a TSX and given up some power in exhange for a much better balanced chassis.
