Acura
3.2 TL Review
New Type-S model adds raw edge of performance.
2002 Acura 3.2 TL Base Price (MSRP) $28,880
As Tested (MSRP) $31,710
Acura's TL delivers performance, style, and comfort. The base TL comes
with a powerful 3.2-liter V6 engine, a nicely balanced suspension,
a rigid chassis, and classy good looks. For 2002, Acura revised the
front and rear styling.
A new model designed for enthusiasts, the Type-S ups the ante with
a more powerful V6, a sport-tuned suspension, 17-inch V-rated tires,
and an electronic stability program. It's quick and fun to drive,
with a level of rawness that gives it character.
2002
Acura MDX Review
Among the best of the on-road SUVs.
2002 Acura MDX Base Price (MSRP) $34,700
As Tested (MSRP) $39,780
Introduced last year, the Acura MDX was quickly named 2001 North American
Truck of the Year by a group of 50 independent automotive journalists.
It's not hard to see why. The Acura MDX offers an outstanding V6 powertrain,
seven-passenger seating, and a four-wheel-drive system that prevents
skids almost before they occur. These benefits come wrapped in a neat
though not flashy package packed with the calm attention to detail
expected of Honda's luxury brand. It's also a package that provides
excellent crash protection.
For 2002, the MDX has been further refined for a quieter ride with
new side mirrors, a sound-absorbing roof liner, thicker windshield
glass, and a layer of Thinsulate insulation in key areas throughout
the interior. The 2002 MDX also gets an intermittent rear windshield
wiper and the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) child-seat
securing system for the second row of seats.
