Acura Tl 2004 With Leather, Sunroof, Heated Seats, Bluetooth on 2040-cars
Loveland, Ohio, United States
|
Up for auction is a 2004 Acura TL with 143,600 miles. Grey (anthracite) metallic exterior and black leather interior.
Please ask any questions BEFORE you bid.
Runs great. If properly maintained, Acuras, like all Hondas, will last for 250,000+ miles.
Car cost over $32,000 when new and is loaded with features, including sunroof, heated front seats, Bluetooth, power driver and passenger seats, XM radio and in-dash 6-disc CD changer.
Car is front wheel drive (great in rain and snow). Also has traction control, stability control and ABS brakes with brake assist. Eight airbags.
I keep the car garaged, both at home and at work. I bought the car in Oct. 2010 when it had 98,500 miles on it.
3.2 liter V-6 engine with 258 horsepower. Merging onto the interstate is easy with the 5-speed automatic transmission pulling smoothly, giving plenty of acceleration without feeling or sounding like you’re straining anything. There’s a reason that this car was competitive with the BMW 3-series.
Cruise control.
17 inch wheels with Goodyear Eagle GT tires with only 21,000 miles on them (new at 122,622 miles).
I average over 26 MPG, but I commute 20 miles each way to work every day, so your mileage may vary depending on use. I always filled the car with premium fuel (which is recommended / required).
Xenon High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights (factory installed). I wish my brand new Hyundai Genesis had these (it doesn’t).
Car has built-in Bluetooth for your phone with steering wheel mounted controls.
Black leather seats in very good condition, especially for a car with 140,000 miles.
Heated front seats work great (high and low settings).
8-way power driver seat with memory 4-way power passenger seat
Sunroof (opens or tilts) with sliding sunshade.
8-speaker stereo with subwoofer. XM radio. In-dash 6-disc CD changer. Steering wheel mounted stereo controls. All original (not aftermarket). Really sounds great. I wish the stereo in my brand new Hyundai Genesis sounded as good (it doesn’t).
Power windows with 1-touch down on the driver and front passenger windows.
Keyless entry.
Homelink (for opening your garage doors).
Dual-zone air conditioning works great and was serviced by an Acura dealer at 107,351 miles. Auto-dimming rear view mirror (a cool feature that you don’t realize that you need until you drive a car without it).

I’m a non-smoker, and I assume the previous owner was as well, as I’m very sensitive to odors and never detected anything.
Since I’ve owned the car, I’ve only taken it to a local Acura dealer for service, except for periodic oil changes at Valvoline.
Acura doesn’t have a set interval for oil changes. Instead, the car’s computer keeps track and lets you know when an oil change is needed. I’d guess it comes about every 6,000 to 7,000 miles. I never waited that long and instead got the oil changed, on average, every 4,300 miles.
I had a local Acura dealer perform their largest service interval at 113,791 miles. It included replacing the spark plugs, timing belt, tensioner, adjuster, water pump, external drive belts and changing the coolant. They also replaced two motor mounts at the same time.
Other service notes:
> Acura dealer changed the transmission fluid at 141,387 miles and also changed the oil and rotated the tires. > Acura dealer replaced the EGR valve at 116,203 miles, as well as the air conditioning belt tensioner. > Acura dealer replaced power steering pump at 98,440 miles (when they serviced it prior to putting it up for sale). > Car was originally purchased in May 2004.
All the electronics work, including power windows, sunroof, power driver and passenger seats, cruise control, 6-disc in-dash CD changer, etc. The motor on the driver’s seat does groan when you slide the seat forward or backward. Also the high and low indicator lights on the driver’s seat heater need to be replaced. But again, the driver’s seat heater itself works fine (both high and low heat settings). I just replaced the armrest / center console / tray in February as it was looking worn (see photos showing new arm rest between the front seats). Cost me $242.56.
The dent in the front bumper (see photos) was there when I purchased the vehicle. Otherwise, the car has the kind of minor chips and scratches one would expect on a car with 140,000 miles (see photos). The interior is in very good condition, particularly for the mileage (see photos).
The car is available for inspection in Loveland, Ohio (NE suburb of Cincinnati).

Acura releases yet another NSX track teaser vid
Sat, 03 Aug 2013On Sunday, August 4th (yep, that's tomorrow), a prototype version of the all-new Acura NSX will make its public track debut ahead of the Honda 200 IndyCar race. Acura has already given us a short video snippet to enjoy, but now it's added one more to get our hearts racing just a little more.
Before you watch it, make sure your speakers or headphones are turned up, because what the low-resolution video lacks in visual quality, it more than makes up for with its audio of the NSX's exhaust screaming as the car tackles Mid-Ohio. And at the end of the video, the caption reads "watch the NSX racing prototype take a lap."
Acura isn't joking either. From what we hear, the car is expected to take one lap before the race and then disappear for the weekend. Scroll down to see and hear the NSX in action.
Acura NSX prototype gets back on track
Thu, 30 Oct 2014Developing a new vehicle is not without its complications, we're sure, but usually things follow a fairly predictable progression: you develop a prototype, you test it, test it and test it again, then you put it into production. What you don't expect is that your prototype will burn to the ground, but that's what famously happened to the NSX which Honda engineers were testing a few months ago.
Fortunately, the Acura NSX prototype is back on track, both literally and figuratively, as you can see from this latest batch of spy shots snapped at the Nürburgring. This camouflaged prototype looks pretty much the same as the last one, only, you know... less crispy. Which is to say, it looks pretty much ready to hit showrooms.
The naysayers may point out that Honda chose colder and damper weather to put the NSX back into testing - thereby mitigating the risk of another fire - but we're sure the Japanese automaker has been working hard to fix the flammability issues, whatever may have caused them, over the past few months. At least, we hope they have.
Acura considering Vezel-based compact crossover
Thu, 16 Jan 2014There's a distinct benefit to automakers having their own premium brand. After all, why develop one vehicle to be sold under one nameplate if you can turn it into two? Especially if a little reconfiguration and some premium accoutrements allow said automaker to charge significantly more for the luxury version. It's a winning formula - for crossovers especially - that Toyota has used to turn the Highlander into the Lexus RX (even if the first-gen RX arrived before the original Highlander), that Ford has used to transform the Edgee into the Lincoln MKX and that General Motors has applied to the Chevrolet Suburban to turn it into the Cadillac Escalade (to name just a few of the many examples out there). And it's one to which Honda and its Acura division are certainly not unaccustomed.
Acura has adapted its Euro-spec Honda Accord into the TSX, the Civic into the ILX, the CR-V into the RDX and the Pilot into the MDX. And now that the Honda Vezel is coming to market, Acura reportedly has its eye on that as well. The idea was first introduced when Acura unveiled the SUV-X concept (shown above) at the Shanghai Motor Show this past April, just a few months after Honda revealed its Urban SUV concept that previewed the production Vezel. At the time, says Automotive News, Acura said it intended to put the concept into production in China for the Chinese market, and it's reportedly moving ahead with those plans. But now that it is, executives are wondering where else they might find buyers for the premium compact crossover.
With the Vezel soon to begin production alongside the Fit at Honda's new plant in Mexico, it wouldn't be a stretch to see the Acura version follow suit. The market does, after all, seem to be heating up with entries like the Audi Q3, BMW X1 and Mercedes-Benz GLA, and we couldn't blame Honda - pardon us, Acura - for wanting a slice of that pie.
