Compliment from policeman

I was in the grocery store parking lot waiting for my girlfriend to come out. A woman in a BMW suv was looking in my direction but I didn't pay any mind. Then I see the cop talk to the woman and then he walks to my car on the passenger side... I was thinking..."here we go"... but he started asking me questions about the TSX. Apparently, the woman in the SUV is his wife, and he told me how he test drove the 04 model when it first came out and he loved it. I told him I loved the car, but there are people that do not like its power. But I could tell he was in love with the car, and he also loved the color too =). I have a 05 CG with underbody kit.

I have a '05 GP/CG too. First time this colour is available on TSX in Canada. I still haven't run into another TSX of this colour in my area since I took delivery over 3 weeks ago!!! It's an awesome colour and I am happy that mine still stands out Yesterday, couple guys in an X5 were staring at my car at an intersection... I think they are thinking my colour was custom!!!
By the way, how come everyone refers Graphite Pearl as Carbon Gray when the official name for the colour in both and is Graphite Pearl? I know it's just a name and CG sounds cool too, but I am just wondering...

Because Graphite Pearl sounds like the title of a Prince song.

heehee... is that a bad thing? I know who Prince is (or "The Artist Who Is Formerly Known As Prince") but I'm probably too young to know all his greatest hits

lol.. hilarious responses.. Anyway, I love my CG but I have to admit that ABP is a really nice looking color. I saw a clean ABP TSX without body kit driving along side me on the way to work. It looked really beautiful in the sun.

By the way, today is my car's one month anniversay and I finally broke 1000 miles. I find SS mode to be really fun...especially when downshifting to get more power. The only mod I have is the oem body kit. I am looking to get 35% tints and probably the a-spec suspension. I want to drop the car without making the ride too harsh. I am also definitely looking forward to Hondata... only worried about the affect it will have on my warranty. But what they don't know wont hurt them

it's ok dabuda. we all can't have the best color.

Back on topic, sorta. When we were in San Francisco last month the valet at our hotel commented "Very nice car, sir". He probably says that to all the owners but, nevertheless, it was nice to hear.
