yeah, I caught that show too, but what's up with this line:
"But prices aren't. The 2002 Acura 3.2TL Type-S starts at $31,710. That's $2,350 more that the standard TL. Add on the only TL option, the navigation system, and the Type-S will run you $33,710. That's more than an LS V-6, about the same as a 330i, and less than a C320"
How is it the same as a 330i? In order to get the same features the TL has in it standard, the 330i would run you close to 40K. We all know that but apparently they don't. Bad job in my opinion, although, it was cool to see them test drive it. If they had the ground effects kit and spoiler on their car, it would've really added more appeal.

There is no way they compare in price, the TL-S beats it hands down!

If you read the line before,
"While the trunk provides 14.3-cubic feet of cargo space. It's one of the largest in its class."
Then it goes,"But the prices aren't" meaning the price is not large. That is what I got out of it.
