just got into my first accident yesterday 04 tl probably totaled :/ going 40 lost control on a lot of sand smashed into a wall no seat belt i believe the way the car was built and designed saved my life i thank you for that Acura most certainly will get a 2nd tl
had the same car.... got into an accident similar to this collision and i must say, the car saved my life.. glass didn't break, airbags worked great.. and got only a cut on my left arm (tiny one) from a 70mph collision.. get this car!! safest !
I have a question: pllllzzz vote, do u thnk the acura tl is a woman's or man's vehicle?....im car shoppin so help decide plz (p.s.: no ignorant stuff)
the safety cage was compromised. That dummy should have been driving a volvo. Watch the s40's, a smaller car, the cage in no manner is moved or bent. Volvo are the safest cars on the planet
every single current gen honda and acura vehicle in north america is an iihs top safety pick. the 04-07 TL is safer than the s40 of that time in the iihs top side impact. the pillar didn't flex, the crumple zone worked very well, the airbag deployed properly and the seatbelt worked well
did you know that some korean cars and most jap cars do better in the iihs side impact than the merc c and e classes (previous gens)

that's nothing.. check out the new 2009+ TLs with ACE body structure.. the car just stays straight. doesn't even get shaken..

No ignorant stuff? That question in itself is pretty ignorant. If you can't decide for yourself, then this car is probably not for you..

Okay, that was stupid. It's a womans car if a woman is paying for it, & a man's car if a man is paying for it.
Like he said -> If you can't decide for yourself, then this car is probably not for you..

I own a rebuilt 04 TL. It was hit in the rear right and I have to say that crumple zone was very effective as well.

honda has the safest cars
