Went to the dealer today to get some touch up paint, I must say that with all the blue trim, the A spec does NOT look more sporty than the normal type S, but i've got this impression that it made it look "cheaper" or not as classy. The only note worth mentioning is the blue painted headlight housing and the door sills. The interior just does not flow nicely together with that disgusting shift knob and the "dull" silver trim along with the blue inserts. I rather have the wood trim and blacked out interior! Oh, and I forgot to mention that the steering wheel with the blue sides look ridiculous!!

 

Did you see at North Shore Acura? IMO, it's not that bad.

 

nono, i am not saying its bad, all i am saying is that the interior does not blend well with the car, that's all, the ext. is ok

I saw it in richmond acura went there to pick up my friend, she left her car there for maintenance and checkup

Got psi, I saw pics of ur car, rilly tight, we fellow tl'ers in vancouver should rilly have a meet soon. so looking forward to it

 

i want the headlghts and the sills.

 

its only in canada right? I like that they finally got a sport package that make it look pretty agressive but I wasn't the hugest fan of the two tone interior.

 

Yes, it's only marketed in Canada.

 

TL_99 - I agree, we should have a CL/TL meet soon.

 

Sport package ?! What sport package ?!

 

Has anyone asked the dealer to see how much the door sills cost? Maybe I'll pass by tonight and ask.

 

Maybe get the black then cuz interior would be black/black
no two tone look

 

The only things I like from A-spec are the sills and spoiler. The rest I'd have to pass

I don't like the 2-tone interior either; the blue inserts just don't blend in. The door sills are nice but I heard Acura Canada has restrictions about selling those A spec parts over the counter. Anyone has more info on this?

 

i think a-spec isnt all that to drool about

 

Nobody will be able to get any A-spec parts..To be able to get the parts, you have to have a valid VIN #. Sucks for all us TL'ers that want some of the nice touches like the sills and the spoiler. I dont think honda wants all of the a-spec parts to be put on any TL, so they put this restriction on the sale of any a-spec part. Maybe, hopefully, honda will eventually make the parts for the a-spec available to all.

 

hehe...i'mma try to talk to Honda Canada..by talking to the "UPPERS" at my stealership...they should be able to get me the parts...
i want the spoiler cuz it looks nice
sill: Drooll
