I see. The reason I asked was because you might have members living very close to you who could help you out with your purchase as well as posting on the forum.

Here is actually the "Southeast Michigan" regional forum: https://acurazine.com/forums/midwest-312/southeast-michigan-folks-729914/

Hope that helps!

There are definite differences between the base TL and the TL Type-S, however.

Yea '07 and '08 TL exact same, except for the year.

Difference between TL and TL-S though... sportier suspension, breaks, wheels, exhaust, 286hp in the TL-S when the TL has 258. Also the TL-S is offered in Kinetic Blue Pearl and the TL isn't.

Regardless, both GREAT cars.

Many people have it, because it is either that or the RonJon kit. I personally don't like the front lip for the Type-S...but what can I say. I have it.
