As of March 2004, Honda offers to the public a factory-sanctioned "tuner package" version of the TL: the TL A-SPEC. This version features a suspension tuned by Makoto Tamamura, an indication of the TL A-SPEC's aggressive engineering. In addition, an underbody kit, spoiler, limited edition A-SPEC steering wheel, "A-SPEC" badge on the back, and 18 in wheels are standard issue on the A-SPEC package. When installed at purchase, the car's 4 year/50,000 mile warranty applies to the package as well.

are u sure its a 03 i thought the aspec came out in 04?
these figures are based on the '04 as im not sure about a 03 model
type-s has the 3.5
a-spec is still the 3.2
also the a-spec has a aggressive tuned suspension and then a underspoiler kit with 18" rims
type-s > a-spec imo

ok..everyone in here needs to shut the fuck up.
2003 TL Type-S A-spec is CANADIAN
it is the 260hp TL Type-S but with the addition of a few things
the TL Type-S A Spec you assholes are thinking of is 04+ US market and a completely different body style etc.
blue tinted headlights
different front/rear lip and side-skirts
rear spoiler with trick lit lamps
different 17 inch alloys
its all looks mods nothing with the suspension or engine.
