Dealer told me about the A-Spec package and they had a TL with all the extra spoilerage (more than that picture) and it looks a bit better than the standard model and it allows for Brembos with the automatic.

The TL-Aspec is already out in the 2003 model. What sucks is that the A-spec is a Canadian only model. So... unless they change their mind... we won't see that in the US.
And it's not a performance package at all. It's just silly things like a JDM style spoiler, door sills, special leather interior, different rims and new A-spec badges. The performance is the exact same, nothing changes under the hood.

Ah, so they changed it for 2004. Looks like the only real performance upgrades are the exhaust and brakes though... nothing that's really going to add power. The added a lot of other things too... pretty cool! 
Man, i hope they bring that to the US... that would be pretty hot.

still a Masshole
someday soon they will have AWD! It makes sense with infiniti and Lexus moving there in the next year or two. Not to mention that Audi, BMW, and Benz already have it. Then you look at Subura and Mitsu and they've had them for along time now. Acura is very secretive but they have been spilling some info about moving some models (RL and even TL) into the AWD segment. Patience!
