Peter,
To get back to your original question, I just bought an '02 TL last month. We decided on it over the Volvo S60, BMW 325i, Volks. Passat, and Audi A4. For us, it came down to features, not speed or handling as it would be driven primarily by my wife. For the money we paid, nothing came close. I love the 6 CD changer, sunroof, Xenon headlights, 225 HP, soft leather, dual exhaust, etc. all of which came standard. By the time we optioned all the other cars to these amenities, they were all well over 30K. The Acura 3.2 TL on the other hand, we got for 28K.
I loved the Type-S, being an old Prelude VTEC owner, but my wife had no need for the extra power and handling. Go with the 3.2, you won't be disappointed.
