On the down low, the 2009 Acura TL may be offered in two distinct flavors.  The “regular” version will feature a 280 HP 3.5 liter V6 that powers the front wheels.  Not bad.  The big-daddy version ( not a Type-S, reportedly ) will get upgraded to a 300 HP 3.7 liter V6 that sends power to all 4 wheels.  Neato.  The TL has been a favorite of mine for awhile, and AWD just makes it so much more relevant.  Bring it, Acura.  But please leave the RL grille at home.
