Thanks everyone for the great comments, suggestions over the past almost 2 years. I traded my '06 Sportcombi in on an '08 Acura TL Type-S.

2006 Aero Sportcombi

2008 Acura TL Type-S

Goodluck with your new car.

It would be nice if you can give us a comparison between the two - more specifically performance wise.

I noticed you had the PPC and would like to know how it compares to the many horses (how many are there? the TL has.

the acura is nice, but I like your sport-combi better. What air cleaner do you have?

Nice Acura! So you are the one with those ASA JH9's.... Still have them for sale or did they go with the car?

gotta be honest, I looked at both the TL and the TL type S....and I think the turbo V6 9-3 is superior....maybe that's because I like the turbo though (and I hate my dad's 5spd auto TL)

at any rate, have fun with it, they're certainly fast enough once you get past that wheelspin
at least the type s is less common than the regular TL

So why the switch? Not really an upgrade.

Not an upgrade is a false statement. Nice choice man.
