Finally pulled the trigger on a TL!!!
whats up guys after 2 years of dreamig for a tl i finally bought one saturday. it was a spurr of the moment thing my fiance and i were out driving and i stopped at the acura dealer and test drove a few and ended up with an 05 silver tl w/ black interior and navi,auto.104k service done also.
my dream was a wdp 6speed with black interior but i looked for about a year and found one but it was 1,000 miles away. even any with a 6speed in my area are almost impossible to find.. i was nervous about buying the auto because ive heard horror stories about them
ive only had this car for two days and its byfar the best car ive ever owned! ive been on this site many times and love it it seems to be extremly helpfull with everyones advice. i will post pics soon and upgrades are soon to come!

Beautiful and NAVIGATION 
Congrats
I will never buy a TL without NAV. The NAV is so awesome.
And I have owned 4 cars with NAV. The ones without NAV, I bought a GARMIN 4" NAV.
NOTHING compares to ACURA NAV

AMEN to that and you 04-06 TL's w/ Navi can hack yours to give more info like instant mpg and other things. There is a great demo of a hacked navi TL on youtube if you'd like to see it. Welcome to AZ... Silver is the best color for a luxury car and gives the best contrast with tint.
