Got my '09 SH-AWD!

I'm now a proud owner of a GM SH-AWD. I absolutely love the car and am looking forward to making some minor modifications to it.

I also look forward to learning from so many of you as I browse the board.

'09 SH-AWD
22,581 miles
Grigio Metallic
Ebony Interior

According to board rules, can I post photos here, or do I have to post them in a gallery thread? The car is no different than any other grigio SH-AWD, but happy to share.

You should post in the gallery but if you do it here the moderator will move the threat over to that thread. Congrats on the new car its really an amazing vehicle.

Welcome to the fraternity man. You have chosen wisely, the 09-11 AWD is by far and away the best TL made to date - enjoy.

P.S. I may of course be a little biased driving an '11 AWD CBP

Sorry it has taken so long to respond to this thread. I'll get pictures up as soon as I get them off my phone. I have had the car for three weeks now and LOVE it. I'm really enjoying the SH-AWD.

I was very happy with the price I paid. I paid $29,500 for an '09 with 22,500 miles on it. I was working deals on TL Techs with twice as many miles, at other dealers simultaneously and both wanted just under $500 less than what I paid for the SH-AWD. I'm pretty happy. With it being CPO, it is hard to pass up a car that has another 39K+ miles left on the warranty.

The car is in service right now having some minor dents removed and having the wheels touched up (all part of the sales deal). They gave me a TSX to drive and I have to say, I can't wait until this afternoon to pick up the TL. The TSX I have is NO comparison.

congrats on your 4g tl. i have never driven a tsx,

but i can imagine you will be happy to get your tl

back from the dealer. 22k miles is low miles for an

09 tl. your price seems very good. cpo is nice

too. no worries, bumper to bumper warranty.

looking forwaard to your pics! welcome to the forum.

I paid $29,500 before TTL. Tax, title and licensing will be different wherever you are, so I see it as a moot point. The asking price was $32K.

Wow, what a car!

I am absolutely loving this car. The SH-AWD is amazing.

I took a cloverleaf the other night (no other cars around) at a bit over 60mph and the car didn't even grimace.

I also have a '95 Miata that handles like a rollerskate. I've taken that same cloverleaf several times at 45mph in the Miata and that's about all it can handle with the tires I have on it.

That fact that this car that is so much bigger and heavier handles the way it, does compared to my Miata is amazing. Love it.
