Looks pretty sweet. Somebody told me that are at the dealerships but I can't locate one. Are they on the floor yet?

I don't see the point in a $5,000 aero kit and brake upgrade and no actual gains in performance.

But that's just me.

Unless it's changed, the "A-Spec" kit is just a ground effects, suspension, and wheel/tire upgrade. Nothing with engine or exhaust.

"Also worth consideration is the A-SPEC kit, which adds performance springs and shocks that lower the car about an inch; 18-inch wheels; an aero body kit; a rear spoiler; a sport steering wheel; and special exterior badging. Automatic-equipped TLs also pick up the Brembo brakes when equipped with this package. "

yeah, the price is a little high for just that. The one I'm looking at is a manual and already has the brakes.
