Key

Anyone know why the new TL doesn't have the integrated key/remote like the Accord does? And the majority of the Honda line if not all have that new style key cut pattern similar to what Lexus, Benz, Audi, VW....etc. have that's supposedly harder to copy. Why is Acura still using the old stuff

The Accord key has the grooves on the inside and the outsides are flat.

No. Acura just has regular cut keys. They didn't even bother to upgrade to the integrated buttons like the new Accord's.

WTF, but how do we know this about the 04TL? If 03 Accord has it, I am pretty sure 04TL might (I know the key and fob are not one but still)

Man, you are a post whore! I just took a look at the board and you're the last to respond to almost every single thread.

Anyways, the key info is what I gathered from the brochure/mini-site pics.

They have already saved intelligent key system, ventilated seats, power folding mirrors, adaptive cruise control, power tilt/telescoping wheel....

That is enough saved for 05, right?
