Another Nice Writeup Of The 4G TL (SH-AWD)

>>>With the Acura TL, the site is straightforward and configuration is drop-dead simple: Pick the TL in one of eight configurations, with or without Technology Package, SH-AWD, five-speed automatic or six-speed manual, 17- or 18-inch alloy wheels, and standard or high-performance tires. Pick one of four or eight exterior colors and one of three leather colors. You're done. The most you can pay is $44,245, including $860 freight.
The downside, of course, is that you can't fine-tune the TL to your exact needs. If you want navigation but think the base audio system with eight speakers and Dolby Pro Logic sound imaging is enough, you've got to make that $3,730 yea-or-nay choice. Nor is there a choice for, say, ventilated seats. Heated seats are standard; ventilated seats are not available. On the other hand, you're getting a car with the capacities and capabilities of a BMW 5 Series or Mercedes-Benz E-Class for about $10,000 less.<<<
