    CNET Review

    November 13, 2007

    The Good: With live traffic and an excellent-sounding stereo, the 2008 Acura TL Type-S features some advanced technology. Its engine produces plenty of power while getting good fuel economy and a low emissions rating.

    The Bad: The interface for the cabin electronics is a little haphazard, with limited touch-screen functionality and dual voice-command buttons.

    The Bottom Line: The 2008 Acura TL Type-S is very fun to drive, but a number of small issues keep it from being a top performer. To stay on the cutting edge of tech, its cabin electronics need a makeover.
