Hi, I just joined the forums and am plannin on gettin a CGP tsx in the next 2 months! can't wait gonna go test drive it tommorow

 

05 is not far away from now. Just a reminder

 

Let me proceed to welcoming you here, and since you don't look like a troll, why not have a beer on me as well!

 

Welcome Najeroni

 

welcome to our lil TSX/Acura family

 

Welcome to the largest TSX forum a part of the largest Acura community.

 

Welcome to the site

We'll help you pass time waiting to get your TSX

 

Yes we will...And a hearty welcome from me!

 

welcome! in the meantime, our posts should entertain you. or enrage you. beware, gilbo is coming to get you....

 

heh thanks for the warm welcome. Yeah today I went with my parents to test drive the two cars they are 'considering getting me' (i want the Tsx!). We test drove the Acura Tsx and the Toyota Camry (my dad loves it....). I fell in love with the Tsx the moment i saw it, then i saw the TL... Yeah so I'm tryin to convince my dad to get the Tsx for me instead of the Camry, but I need some figures on how the Tsx is better. Anyone have any links ??
Thx

 

Welcome to the site.

TSX > Camry

 

Welcome NooB.

 

Another fortunate kid....be respectful & thankful to 'em but don't let 'em drive your TSX

welcome

 

welcome.

 

Yes, welcome.
Since "better" is incredibly subjective, maybe the best thing to tell your pa is the TSX (with a higher price) may have better resale value. It's pretty weak but it's all I've got right now.

 

Welcome noob.

I'd definitely mention safety ratings to your dad. Emphasize all the airbags and 4 and 5 star impact ratings. Parents want their kids to be safe.

 

Welcome!!!
remember the 1st thing you need to do is to visit the "Problem and Fix" forum

 

Alrighty I will tell him about the great safety features of the TSX, but he has wanted to get a Camry for a long time... even if its for me. But I got my mom to be on my side in this battle hehe, so she can work the magic on pops to get teh car. And yeah i am a noob .

 

Think i should wait for a 2005 TSX or go wit a 2004?? any big differences in 2005? like new design and such, pics would help oh and a date of when the new Tsx is comin out..

 

There should probably not be many differences except for some early solving of 1st year gremlins. 2006 should mark minor changes.

 

o okay, yeah i talked to my dad and he said that he would get the tsx for me!! (yay No camry!! ) Yeah... I can't wait, dealer should drop ..like a grand off the 2004 models when the 2005 comes out right?

 

Since there aren't major differences and the TSX '04 is still selling strong, I doubt the price drop will be significant. If dad's paying for it who cares?

 

Congratulations! TSX is way cooler than the Camry. Did you decide on a color? Check out some of the gallery pics to check the other members cars.

 

Well right now I'm really liking the Carbon Gray....and yeah many of you may have that but its an amazing color! I always wanted that dark pearly dolphin color, so that is most likely wat i will get. I like the blue also, but the interior doesnt come in the camel color, like the TL. Would quartz be a nice color on the carbon gray? My mom doesn't like the ebony leather b/c she thinks it will get to hot in the car, but does it matter that much since it is leather?? thx guys nice cars by the way, props to Accsuperstar, i think i will follow his mod list

 

Welcome to the board! I joined only recently, too.

The TSX is definitely cooler than the Camry. There're tons and tons of Camrys around, but very few TSXs. Why get something everyone else and their mother already has?

Good luck with convincing the parents on the TSX!

 

You're right. CG is an awesome color. Dammit we don't have it in Canada, cause I would have picked that color in a heartbeat.

I saw one around May 20th at Mt. Tremblant. It came from Vt. Awesome!

 

Welcome aboard

 

haha thanks, my dad is set on the Tsx no more talk of camry.

 

Glad to see your dad came to his senses. One-to-one comparison is NO comparison. TSX rocks.

 

You should point out that you can roll down the windows with the remote as you approach the car so it can cool down.

 

True true, i will

 

I just ordered my CG last weekend too! The TSX is the way to go! You should be able to get a good deal on an 04 model. I'm from MA and I paid $27000 (MSRP I believe was $29085) for a 6MT/NAV/Ebony interior.

 

Awsome!! How did you get it so low? any good negotiating tactics u could tell me?
Oh ya btw, haven't orded the tsx yet but waiting to heh, my friend just got a RSX Type-S A-Spec yesterday!! Its reallly nice !! happy he got a nice acura

 

Try doing an online search of the dealer's (the one you plan on going to) inventory and see what they have in stock and if they have the one you want. I think dealers are more agreeable when they can move their current inventory. Mention your friend in MA got one for $27,000 quote see if they can work that number. He may have gotten a good deal because he did it before the end of June which would be the end of the 1st QTR for most Japanese companies. (FYE = March 31)

Good Luck

 

welcome

 

alright then, thx for help, I will try, and if they don't have that CG wit navi at the dealership, which i dont think they do.. i guess i will be screwed over.. viking how much was it with tax... total price with everything.

 

Thanks Jlukja for the point
