- Though I'm sure the car drives like a dream, that grill is just aweful! It loooks so cheap! They are also putting a similar one on the 2009 TSX. Read More
- it looks nice, especially the interior. i just hope acura doesnt screw up the 09 TL cause the 3rd gen TL is by far the best looking car on the road. just hope they keep the TL looking good.
- I think it looks way to much like an Accord, and, like the old one, does not look like an upper-level car. The RLs have always been like that. This is strange because the MDX, RDX, and TL have all been refreshed/ designed very creatively AND, snookyni... THIS WOULD BE... Read More
- In my opinion, it could be better.
- its very, very nice. however, the rear tailights sort of look like a cross between the 08 accord's and the 08 camry's

Why should I also consider these?
When it's time for you to step out of the smaller entry-level premium sedans, the 2009 Acura RL doesn't really stand out among the excellent competitors it faces.
It's probably because the Acura RL is V-6 powered and uses all-wheel drive.
There are some sedans that match its drivetrain; the Cadillac STS is more crisply styled, but its rear seat is truly cramped.
The Volvo S80 is light and airy inside, with a Scandinavian look to the cabin and a light touch to the controls.
The Audi A6 suffers from the same overwrought styling up front as the Acura RL, but its backseat seems roomier.
