headrests, Side mirrors, cup holders, jewelry case instead of CD Magazine, 6cd changer, Acura Emblem on steering wheel. Floor mats write 3.2TL instead of ACURA, Key fob is nicer, memory seats....just to name a few!

All 2g tl's have illuminated heated mirror buttons, gauge font is all the same for 2000-2003, though the 99 has the ugly Italic style font.

nothing else, just the front end and the red/clear taillights at the back and the side mirrors if you are observant.
