How much did u pay for your A-spec from burrard acura?

I bought my blue A-spec from burrard acura too.
I got it off Stanley and he gave me a good deal.

I got it october 2003 when the New TL was released.
paid only 41000 CAD with TAX =)

SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) SAE standard requires a correction for friction torque. Friction torque can be determined by measurements on special motoring dynamometers (which is only practical in research environments) or can be estimated. When estimates must be used, the SAE standard uses a default Mechanical Efficiency (ME) value of 85%. This is approximately correct at peak torque but not at other engine operating speeds. Some dynamometer systems use the SAE correction factor for atmospheric conditions but do not take mechanical efficiency into consideration at all (i.e. they assume a ME of 100%). Actual is the horsepower your car actually produces at the time of dyno not using any standards. SAE is how someone in the mountains can compare his car to someone at sea level. The mods in my sig gave those whp numbers never did a base run.
