Non-Navi - 25,400 + TTL

No other fees - I dont want to release the final deal numbers b/c dealers read this and I dont want to mess this up..... when I buy, I will tell all but the deal is awesome - trust me....

i dont exactly have buyer's remorse because i love my cgp/ebony, but whenever i see peoples' pwp on this forum i wish i had gotten the pwp/ebony combo. especially since it's so much more versatile with regard to wheel choices.

As much as I love my CGP/Ebony, I admit PWP/Ebony looks really sharp.

My coworker just got a PWP/Ebony last weekend . Makes me ever so teensily regret not going for my second choice.

I have PWP is it's pretty low maintenance actually...the darker the color, the easier it is to see swirls, fingerprints, etc.

PWP pros: low maintenance, looks sharp, rare esp. w/ ebony combo, car interior is cooler on hot days
PWP cons: I've been told white looks somewhat girly and I sort of agree (esp. w/ the girly 06 wheels), so slap on some wheels/kit and drop and you're good to go

CGP pros: more masculine
CGP cons: too common, more high maintenance, hotter (temperature-wise)

That's why the ASM is a good compromise. There are a lot of PWPs and NBPs around here.
I got the ASM because the salesman convinced me that it'd be easier to dispose of if I had to get out of the lease. The ASM is kind of nondescript but it does look sharp in sunlight.

Have parked my silver next to white and the light blue. Both are prettier. Glad i got silver.

Our clearcoat is so bad you got to stick with the light colors for long term ownership in many environments. Truth is you can only fix finish on these cars a few times and then there is no clearcoat left.

Down the road the white will have more value for easy rice graphic overlays. White looks great and glad i didnt pick it.

For whatever reason the tsx is one of few cars that looks great in the light blue. Saw an MDX in the light blue and was almost sick!

Exactly, PWP please. I saw 3 CGPs on my way to work this morning.

If it weren't for this forum, you would think they make TSX's in 1 color- CGP!!

I got a 2006 PWP/Ebony w/ navi. It's a great color combo. My second choice would have been the CGP though. CGP is a great color as well.

My pick is PWP/ebony. I own an SSM/ebony but if I have to do it again I would picked PWP.

Thanks to everyone for your comments. After seeing so many CGP and few PWP....I am certainly leaning towards PWP. However, when the CGP is perfectly clean...its beautiful.

I'll figure it out....

We were in kind of the same situation. My wife wanted CGP and I wanted PWP or ASM. If we were going to go dark, it was going to be NBP, as CGP just doesn't do it for me.

I just couldn't go down the CGP or NBP path - BECAUSE I have had numerous black & dark colored cars, as good as they look, they are a real pain in the a$$ to maintain and I would have regretted that decision.

PWP/Ebony is THE Hot Combo
