I would only get wood if it was real, I like the look of wood, but I don't like the veneer stuff. 06 Looks nice. I don't think the price increase is that bad considering it comes with TPMS which I am gonna try to get from my acura dealer.

i wonder how the TPMS is set up.....that would be nice if it was something that can easily be applied to the 04's and 05's.....as well as one thing im happy about is...most carbon fiber trim kits..the carbon fiber dosn't match the stock TL's carbon fiber so i will most likely be purchasing the carbon fiber when dealers start putting it on ebay

Hey if this is the 2006, I noticed that on the 360 view that the Driver and passenger seat has no double stitch...have they solved the butt print?

and another thing to add....i don't think there is a module for the TL for the TPMS...i think if there is low air in one of the tires the MID pops up and notifies you...so i don't think there can be any upgrade....

I just noticed why the bodykit in Canada is much more expensive than in US.
Eg: the front skirt in US: $329 (around $400 Canadian dollars)
the front skirt in CA: $609 Canaidan dollars

i don't think theyve added it to the website yet....and the updates on vtec.net stated that it would be a dealer installed option.....so it won't be mainly advertised...just like A-spec...its not really pinpointed on the Acura.com website.....its discreatly mentioned.

Aaaarrrggghhhh!
I love my '05 TL MT and it's power (don't care if SAE changes the number - I know what my performance is like), but is this a true statement?
"The 2006 TL ushers in an entirely new era of performance sedan with an advanced 3.2-liter, 24-valve, V-6 engine that produces a class-leading 258 horsepower at 6200 rpm."
found it here: TL Engine
Does this exclude the G? I thought we were in the same "class" as far as the auto industry goes..

Think if I whine they will up my late model 05 to that?
NFLBlitze, the new MID cant just decide it wants to tell you there is low tire pressure, there must be other stuff installed.

well there is obviously other things installed, but i think its all in the MID which would make it a possibility that the stock TPMS might not be compatible with us, unless a hardware upgrade is applied. im not sure. im just saying it dosn't look like theres any guages or such or any monitoring system on the dash...thus it may be in the MID
