i thought the A-Spec FP gives you lower suspensions? It doesn't look like the car is lowered at all in the pictures.

That A-Spec package is not worth the price tag IMO. You are looking at $4000.00 for parts only which include:

-OEM body kit
-Authentic type R wing
-17inch alloy rims
-track tuned suspension
-Titanium silver trim for inside
-Somewhat better brake pads.

All this is what consist of the A-Spec package.
As for install price you must have it installed there, no questions about it and you can not buy parts by themselves. It's either the complete package or nothing at all. Install price is an additional $2000.00.

My friend is the parts manager at Acura and has commented on how this package is not worth the cash.
I will send a tube of vasoline to anybody who buys this package.hahaha, trust me you will need it afterwards. hahaha..

I still think i wouldn't enjoy driving something like that.

First off it's to heavy and second if i wanted a Luxury sedan i would just get an Audi A4 for the same price if not less.

The new TL is promising but just isn't me. It has to many features.

When i get an RSX (if that is what i decide on) the first thing i'm going to do is get a Quaife LSD and a badass suspension setup.

The A4 is a nice car but the TL has it trumped IMO. Other than the Quattro the TL has every feature the A4 has for less and has 50 more hp, brembo brakes, bluetooth, Dolby 5.1, etc. Just wanted to point that out because the TL is truly an excellent offering from Honda.

As for the A-Spec, yeah its a nice idea but A) We'd rather have the Type-R B) It is overpriced C) We'd like to be able to purchase the parts separately. I've ranted about the damned A-Spec/HFP so many times its not even funny

I'm glad your thrilled about the new TL. I must say it is a big step up from the last one. I'm really impressed with it.

But you clearly stated right here: <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">The A4 is a nice car but the TL has it trumped IMO.</TD></TR></TABLE>

IMO

Well, IMO i like the A4 better.
