V6 FWD to V6 FWD they should be the same. Aspec is trim & suspension.

I Think the steering ratio is the same as well and only the awd version has tighter steering modification With a better suspension.

Look up the parts number on one of the Acura oem parts sites. If part numbers are the same, there is no difference. I have a feeling this is the case, but it's always worth verifying.

the ECU look the same but it may have a different program for shifting. i can get a base model V6 for a good price but if i decided to get an asepc i may just make the jump to the advanced model.

Im guessing that the programming is different, hence the difference in mpg?
