acura are an extremely well bbuilt car and no matter what other people say they retain there vaule well trust me i own one. the type-s tl is a good mix of sport and class id has all the features possilbe of the tl but with the engine of the rl and the stylin of a sporty car if comes with the 286 hp 3.5l v6 factory dual, dual tip exhahust better rims and a nicer rear bumper. also leather sport two tone interior, electic seats with heat, paddle shifter(automatic), standard navigation and just about anything else you could think of in my eyes its just as good if not better then the bmw and mercedes benz
