New TSX Owner....
Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a proud new owner of a 06' TSX - PWP with ebony int., 6MT and Navi. So far, I love this car. The MT is fun to drive and the features on this car are amazing. I hope to learn from everyone here and maybe make some contributions of my own.

Thanks again everyone.
I do miss the TL-S and the looks I got from driving it around, but I definitely don't miss the tranny on that thing. The TSX will be another modding frenzy for me like the TL-S.
Huckleberry - Even though the TSX has less power, the 6MT is fun to drive and I don't have to worry about it failing on me.
CCColtsicehockey - I'm planning to do a JDM theme again with the TSX. First mod has to be the Tein Flex for the drop, then maybe Mugen Cat-back for a little growl.

CCColticehockey - BTW, I did keep the SSR wheels since the lug pattern is the same as the TL-S plus they're 19x8 +49 offset so it won't rub even with a drop. They're relatively heavy wheels, so I'm not sure if I'll hold on to them for too long for the TSX. We'll see how they feel in the spring.

siocontl - The main reason I replaced the TL-S was because of the tranny recall on the car. It was just poorly built. Even though Acura extended the warranty to 7yrs/100K mi, the thought of a failing tranny at any given time bothers me. I know it wouldn't cost me anything to replace it since it's covered under warranty, but its just a headache I didn't want to deal with.
If it wasn't for the poor tranny on the TL-S, I would have kept the car and continued to mod it further.

I am loving it
Love the combo - we have the same eye. I am also getting a 2006 PWP 6MT w/ Navi. Mine has been ordered and I should be able to lay my hands on it within the next 3 weeks ... especially after seeing yours . The wait is tormenting me , but I enjoy reading all of your posts!
