That's old news... This video was taken 3 years ago and was badged as an allure. Father in law is head office in Oshawa and was given this for a couple days. 0-60 in 6.4 I highly doubt it felt like a slug. Maybe 8-9 seconds
Sounds like the 3.6... I was never impressed with these cars. GM just can't get it right for some reason with these vehicles. I love the interior, but for some reason all the performance out of every single engine is totally lackluster. Even the 2.0 turbo is garbage!
This is coming from a former GM employee and current driver!!
@th3ha1og0d Uh yeah funny considering that they are also the ones who got the cars back and did that race between the 335i annd the S4 with the Acura winning!
They have 4 different articles on the acura. And one was a comparrison between the Auto TL and another car. They stated that they got 0-60 in 5.9 in that car.
How about this video? /watch?v=uGuLxGBmOTc
I was just on the motortrend website. The only 0-60 info they had on that car was "Buick estimates a high-6.0-sec 0-60-mph time"
No...you are mistaken. Motortrend has a road test where they achieved a 0-60 time of 6.4 seconds. Not too shabby for this big sedan. And more importantly it beat the Edmunds time of 6.7 for the TL-SH AWD
@th3ha1og0d I'm not your buddy. And your a fucking liar.
If anyone who reads this wants the link that I sent him, feel free to ask me for it.
And I would just like to point out that this guy found the fastest 0-60 review online for this car.
Other well known reviewers promise 0-60 of 5.2 seconds to 6.0 seconds for the Acura TL. There is even a video on YouTube of the auto TL doing a stock 0-60 of 5.5 seconds!!
Aww, why can't we be buddies? I love you! I love your lies! And I love your Acura propaganda!
I received no such "link" from you.
However, here is the information I wish to provide to you, but which you IGNORE. Just head over to the Motortrend website, and add this string to the end of the URL.
Ooh. Sorry sir, I did not realize I oweth ye, slave of mine, respect. Now snap out of your delusion, eat ye mutton bones and shine mine shoeth. Ye shall give the Buick the same respect ye give the TL, and not choose thy worst 0-60 times for the Buick, and the best for ye TL. Ye slave.
However the funny thing is. If you did not know that im part black, Or that i liked hondas. You would possibly talk to me on youtube as if i am actually another human being in your eyes.
Honestly, i think that you slightly EVNY ME! And its the truth.
You wish that you could be american. You wish that you could be my age again. You wish that you had a girlfriend to go have sex with every other day. You wish that you could get an errection without a pill...
by the way i forgot to mention that i would hate to be an american... the society is very sick....a sort of "personal entitlement". "Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness" only happens in cartoons. Your society is the exact opposite of this. Destruction on a global scale, waging wars, etc.... you've probably heard it a thousand times so i'll spare you the news story
And as he tries to solve those problems, he's creating new ones. Obama is paving the way for Sharia law in the western world. His appeasement of Islamic countries and the Qur'an is shocking. Before you know it your local church will be converted to a mosque.
The TL is no faster, and certainly offers no more tech than the Lacrosse. I'm sure your little group of friends loves to subscribe to your Honda rhetoric, but I would ask them how they feel when their little black asses are getting burnt in the TL. The Buick offers both heated AND cooled front seats. Shame Acura doesn't realize summer is a season. Also take note of the Buick's Heads up Display, which, of course, the shitty Acura lacks.
You come on this video attacking me with foul comments, calling me a "fucking liar", and now you try to appease me with a private message apology? For real?
"uhh th3ha1og0d, whatevs,,,,i know we hav deez opinionZ on dem cars, but styll, I respect GM....dey be doin some STRAIGHT UP design work deez days...I would take the Buick ANYDAY ovr da TL....peace out" - wongmylesa
Thanks, but what's the shame in a public admittance? I appreciate your honesty.
@caddyman07 According to Wikipedia, "It was originally sold as Buick Allure in Canada because the French translation of LaCrosse means 'self love' (or 'swindle') in Quebecois slang."
this car only had like 500ks on it so I was taking it easy. father inlaw is an executive at GM Canada in oshawa so he brings home a new car every week.
The reson its slow on low end is it had a 0-40 tork limiter system. you can get rid of that but you will disable traction controol and abs systems. But you gane speed and a good amount of it i have a 2007 cxs lecross and i did it to mine
Yeah I figured, nice to see she still red lines above 6000 rpm. Have you driven a last gen Lacrosse? If so, how's the pickup in comparison? Mine pulls like crazy in the top end [check my vids].

@th3ha1og0d Are you fucking retarded? Did you count the 6 seconds that it took for it to get from 30 to 60 MPH?
Or how about ALL of the lacrosse videos on youtube that show 0-60 in like 8 seconds?
.....
wongmylesa 1 year ago
@wongmylesa
Get lost. Actual reviews put this car (3.6) in the 6 second range for 0-60. And high 14's for quarter mile.
I most certainly am not retarded. Check out the media outlets for yourself. Motortrend, Car and Driver, etc.
th3ha1og0d 1 year ago
@th3ha1og0d Ive read actuall reviews... Such as the ones by edmunds and motor week.... They STATE 0-60 for the 3.6 in 6.8-7.5
Videos on youtube guve identicle times.
" Buick estimates a high-6.0-sec 0-60-mph time." - 6.8 Seconds
"C/D TEST RESULTS:
Zero to 60 mph: 6.7 sec"
Point....
Even the 3.5 TL is faster in a straight line with one less gear and a motor without DI!
I cant even imagine how slow the 4 Cyl is.
wongmylesa 1 year ago
@wongmylesa
Motortrend tested the 3.6 CXS and got a 0-60 time of 6.4, beating the last ES350 they tested (6.5).
Funny how you mention edmunds and then forget to include the 0-60 time they got for the TL SH-AWD...6.7

Okay, i may be mistaken however....
The TL got an INITIAL 0-60 of 6.7 By edumunds, WHICH is faster then the 7.5 Seconds to 60 that they got in the 3.6 LaCrosse CSX.
And by the way, The lexus ES did 0-60 in 6.9 Secconds according to edmunds as well...
And by the way, motortrend Gives a 0-60 at 6.5 For the TL And 0-60 AT 6.6 SECONDS FOR THE BUICK! YOU FUCKING LIAR!
FUCK OFF!

The LaCrosse gets a consistent 0-60 time of 6.6 - 7.8
That is what I have seen.
Also. No matter where you look. The TL also has a faster are mile at a higher speed.
The TL pulls almost a full G on stock tires and motor on all review sites.
The TL is a faster car and offers more tech. No doubt.
Go ahead and reply with your slew of shit talk.
