You know, it really IS amazing that no news is leaking out of this press preview. Absolutely amazing. Surely to god someone has been there and has broken silence!?!?
Do you think they told all those guys, "Now that we've shown you the secrets, we've got to kill you."?

FYI, as of today, my dealer has 62 TLs on the lot, 22 having NAVI. That means they need to sell one a day for the next 2 months!
The salesman I talked to sounded a little more desparate when I talked to him today. The first thing he said was "Now what do I need to do to get you in a new TL?"

Around here, one has 53, another 49, and the other one 31. How many is considered a lot to remain on a dealer's lot?

I'm sure the press event happened and the info is out but they were told not to release it until a certain date. Everyone saw what vtec has from Honda PR regarding the 2007 Honda's right?
2007 Honda Model Change Summary (Partial)
"Editor's Note: We've just received a model change summary for 2007 Honda models and while there are several items we can't share with you yet, there's quite a bit of other stuff that we are able to report. "

Just checked my local dealer and they have 127. 3 are ATs, 12 are MTs, and 112 are AT w/ Navi. No MTs with Navi...

Wonder how much and how hard it will be to up my '06 Navi to the newer "07 upgraded" Navi; new display, dvd-rom and/or dvd-rom player?
That is of course IF the '07 TL Navigation has an upgraded Navigiation System!
