Got my TSX! Arctic Blue 5AT

Actually, I got my car 3 weeks ago from Acura of Troy, but due to personal reasons, didn't have time to post my pictures on the forum. Thanks to mdblum, Ambient, and Agent Smith for giving me advise on the purchase of the car. It is such a fantastic car, what more can I say about it that everyone here doesn't already know? The 5AT sportshift is much better than the 4AT sportshift I had on the 5th Gen Prelude. Everything else is so much more refined than the Prelude, too.

Anyway, on my 500 mile trip back home from where I picked up my car, I took a few photos along with the local scenery. Anybody recognize the places?

Actually, it was 562 miles.
I had to drop off my old car to my parents, so I picked up the TSX in Michigan. It wasn't easy driving a new car gently along the turnpike for so long. Acutally, if I add the side excursions we made, it could have easily been a 600+ mile return trip.

Hmmm, nobody has been able to guess where the first 2 pics were taken. True, the last 2 pics are from Pittsburgh, but the first two are not. No Buckeye's on this forum?

congrats and hope you enjoy the car for many years. but be careful if you run with the abp tsxers.....they're hardcore.

right on TRU! the front license plate holder sucks. damn dmv, i can't run over stupid people because my license # will be embedded on their skin.

Beautiful car! too bad Artic Blue Pearl is not available in Canada. I will probably buy one in 2005 if this color becomes available, otherwise, I will choose another make/model (Mazda6 or Subaru Legacy).

For 35 K$, I have to get a color I really like, not merely one I can live with...
