It's a bigger engine but the car also weighs in at well over 4000 lbs and the gas mileage ratings from the 300C and the Acura TL aren't that far from one another.
The Acura gets 20 city and 29 highway
300C gets 17 city and 25 highway
My point is if the TL is supposed to be a luxury "sports" sedan it should be a little bit more "sporty" and when it's getting dusted off by cars much larger and as you admit bear no pretense to being sporty it sort of fails in being "sporty". See where I'm going here?
