The TL is a superior car to the 330i overall. But if you're a car enthusiast like most of us are, the 330i PP owns it.

Tirod, it's really hard to judge anything on paper. I was in similar shoes until I took a 325i BASE out and it stomped all over the handling of the TL Type S I had driven earlier that day.

As far as Acura VS BMW.. I drove my dad's 330cic and it handled better than my integra when it had aftermarket suspension, pretty much fell in love the first time I drove the car, hence why I have been wanting to get a bimmer for such a long time. h:

They didn't have any on the lot...I went by the Volvo dealer, but am not going to wait around for one to show up.

Volvo uses the Haldex awd system anyway. It's one of those electronic fwd-until-the-fronts-slip systems so it's not really as much of an aid to the handling as one might expect. Unless of course the control over the Haldex diff has somehow been integrated into the 4C system and it does continuously apportion torque between front and rear, but yeah I don't think that's been done.

Awd VWs and Audis based on the A-platform use the Haldex also. It's not so good. B-platform ones however use a real Torsen center diff.
