It's official

I put down my deposit to order my CG, Ebony, 6spd, Navi.
I'm coming from a TL looking for a more engaging driving experience. It's been a long deliberation before I finally decided on the TSX. Seriously considered the '05 Legacy GT but the overall package just does not stack up against the TSX. Had a brief lusting of the G35 6spd coupe until I drove it, if my eyes were closed I'd swear I was shifting a truck. I had considerably more fun driving the Scion TC, not a bad car really and dirt-cheap. And lastly a Mini Cooper S, but reviews of reliability issues, cost of repairs and dealer service issues lost my interest quick. I think I will miss the punch of the V6 but gain a much better/fun driver. Now the really hard part...waiting the 90 days.

Thanks to all you congratulators. I'll be when I finally bring it home. In the meantime, I guess I'll be hanging out here to keep up on the latest.

I'd be willing to settle for my 2nd or 3rd favorite color if I can get it now than wait 90 days..
But, congrats!

6spd Navi's are hard to come by anyway so I don't mind waiting to get the color I really want.

So they say. The few dealerships in my area that I contacted all had at least one coming in off the boat. (well, one less now that's available. )
