Great car, your Type S!I own an '06 TL w. 5K miles on it & I love it. Also, my wife drives a V6 Accord, and daughter's in a CR-V...Honda's are tops!The various Acura/Honda blogs carry posts of folks complaining about the TL's FWD, as if it's some sort of plague...NONSENSE! Sure the TL has torque-steer under full power during cornering. But RWD cars have their issues too, and the TL is a very well balanced FWD machine. It's handling capabilities exceed most drivers' abilities who BTW, shouldn't be pushing the envelope to that extreme anyway.I'd for sure buy a TL all over again...PS - You can add an AEM cold air induction system which will get you up to the HP output of the Lexus IS350. And that's pretty good considering the Lexus needs 12:1 vs. Acura's 11:1 compression to do it. Also, the Acura makes its HP from a SOHC configuration, which again is pretty impressive when compared to its nemesis (IS, G35, 330i, etc., all of which require DOHC to be competitive).
