How Old was your TSX when you got it ?

I am wondering how long it is btw manuf. date and DOA at dealer...
how long the car has been sitting at the dealer/somewhere.

I just got mine 4 days ago 6/5/04...label show manufacturing date is 02/04

You guys want to post your dates so we compare notes ?[SIZE=2]

Also anyone know how long the ocean trip from Japan is ?

Thanks

My Euro Accord took 3 months from the date of order to the factory, to my dealer.

And it was literally built when I orderered it as they didn't have NBP in stock.

If you check out my mini-site and go into the 1st set of pics you can see the ship it came in !

Aren't TSXes built in the US thou ?

what the heck....I know TSX is built on the Accord Euro platform but yours look TOTALLY identical in
every way to the US TSX (exterially) ..except the emblem

US TSX is 100% Japanese. (thank God)

Mine had 1 mile on it. I performed the PDI, the state inspection, and the test drive. It left the lot with 11 miles for delivery. It left the day those things could be contracted. Sat on the ground for 3 days.

Absolutely, IF you don't count the totally different interiors. You have our USDM style interior in your JDM Accord.

Ordered mine early May, built May 19th, received June 23rd.
