Newb From Baton Rouge! :) First Acura!
Hey ladies and gentlemen, I would to say this is a pleasure to be here among such fine car Enthusiasts! I picked up my 2013 TL base in Bellanova White Pearl on 2/18/17 the day before yesterday. Atleast i think its Bellanova White pearl. I know acura makes a orchid white pearl as well, not sure for my year though. I looked on the door jams and didnt see a color code. My temp registration just says white *smh*, and the dealer didnt have any records showing the true color name. But anyway I have to say after 2 days of driving her, this car is one very well built machine. I am absolutely in love with the combination of luxury, style, performance these cars have. The only few issues i have so far is the imo ugly dual pinstriping, which i am in the process of removing HA! The car has a dual black/silver pinstriping down both sides which i found that the black grabs my attention too much away from the white pearl. I removed the black stripe and i am gonna leave the silver because its pretty light in color. The black however left a large amount of glue residue which i am in the process of removing as well. I spent 5 hours yesterday getting the residue off the drive side, and since my boss is off today i think i will try to knock out the passenger side here at work . Besides that, the lack of a digital speedo is the only other thing i wish i had...so i can't complain one bit. Love this car! I have always been a car Enthusiast, and my previous vehicles include. 1999 honda civic si, 2002 Subaru wrx, 1992 Honda civic hatchback with ITR swap, 1994 honda civic ex with turbo charged 1999 si engine, 2001 honda s2000, 2007 Subaru sti, 2013 Ford mustang boss 302, 2014 gmc sierra and now the TL . This car is in another league as for quality is concerned. Thanks in advance for the welcome!
