QUOTE: Acura's TL has grown in just about every dimension since last year; eight-disc CD changer.....

WTF? So much for fact checking I guess.

With so many avid readers who 'only read Playboy for their articles', you'd think fact verification/research would be paramount!

Measurements
My feeling on the error in the dimensions is this.

If it can't be summarized in three dimensions (for example, 37-23-35) Playboy can't deal with it.

Surprised to read that Playboy didn't think the TL had enough low-end thrust...

You went to the Playboy website to read an article on the TL? What's wrong with you?

I'm surprised the review didn't mention the TL's wonderful headlights.
