'03 1/2 Rumor

I was talking to a dealer Friday when I was shopping for an '03 Type S. He had heard about an '03 1/2 TL. He didn't have any details. Anybody heard anything? It'll probably be a 6 spd manual announced right after I sign the papers for the '03. ARRR!! Oh, well. I'm sure it will sell for sticker price until the '04s come out.

Agreed.... don't hold your breath. I think if this was true that it would have been all over the internet by now. You'll be lucky if you see a 6-speed in the TL/TL-S in the 2004 redesign. I emphasize lucky b/c if the TLX (TLX info) is going to be added to the Acura line-up in 2004 as a "BMW Competitor" it will most likely have the 6-speed while the TL would probably "move up" the line-up closer to the RL and stay auto/SS.
