Landed a "keeper" today?
2008 Moroccan Red Pearl auto, mileage 46.6 K, out of Knoxville, TN, this week and picked up today.
515 miles each way to "go fetch." But a REAL nice problem to have (Acuras). Got 30 mpg on the way home with A/C running and 60-70 mph. Finally played with the floppy paddles and they make the engine have a voice. Quiet at idle.
Have a carflax history on it, which looked quite nice. New tires, although an off-brand. Just hope we can jamb some major miles in it with no major maintenance other than 100,000 K services. Always wanted one of these, and is replacing 2006 TL w/Navi at 146,000 K (and still rockin').

Thank you, guys-n-gals, for the nice compliments. And nfnsquared the (natural) blonde will be the primary driver (who won't have fun with the floppy paddles). She is already loving it more than her 2006 Redondo red/camel.
Before winter creeps in I need to do a photoshoot of the two TL's, two NSX's, and other misc household Hondas...
