Sports-oriented vehicles are not famous for being especially quiet, and the 2007 Acura TL Type-S is no exception. Though far from loud, this TL suffers from noticeable tire noise, an unexpected amount of wind noise around the A-pillars at highway speeds, and suspension noise when traveling over bumps or potholes. All that while the engine, the one thing enthusiast drivers often prefer to hear as they ascend toward the rev limiter, was relatively quiet. There’s some audible action when VTEC kicks in, but even that is fairly well muted.
