this is for the 02-03 models....
i know that the exterior is not that different besides the OEM lip kit and the rims...other than that, is there a difference in the interior and performance?...also, is finding aftermarket parts harder to find for a base TL than a Type S

thanks,

Umm, you may want to go to www.edmunds.com and do a comparison. All I gotta say is 225 HP for the TL vs 260 HP for the Type S. 16in wheels vs 17in wheels..and there are a few other extra's....

 

Type-S has VSA and 4 channel disc brake

 

TL Type S provides 260 horsepower as opposed to the TL's 225 horsepower, with the extra power coming from a higher compression ratio, a two-stage induction system, a larger throttle body (with no decrease in gas mileage), free-flowing exhaust, high-performance intake valves and camshafts, and modified variable valve (VTEC) timing. Type S also comes with an increased steering ratio and a firmer suspension, thanks to stiffer shocks, a slightly larger rear stabilizer bar, and 17-inch alloy wheels with Michelin P215/50R17 high-performance tires.
Notably, the Type-S comes standard with Acura's Vehicle Stability Assist, an electronic stability program that uses anti-lock braking and traction control to keep the car from sliding. Yaw, lateral g, speed and steering sensors all provide input, and the throttle and brakes are automatically reduced or applied as needed.

Also, the type as has a cool shift knob, perferated seats and door panels, and arrow shaped headrests.
