New to the TSX world

Hi guys and gals. Wanted to say and introduce myself. I just bought my new-to-me 2004 Satin Silver/Ebony leather 6-speed TSX (no nav) this past Thursday. What an awesome car!

I bought it at a big used car event in Colorado Springs from Pikes Peak Acura. Since picking it up, I've done two day trips around the Colorado Springs area. Today was the most fun with a trip up Rt 24 to Buena Vista, Rt 291 to Salida, Rt 50 to Canon City, and then Rt 115 back to the Springs. If you're in this area, Rt 50 between Salida and Canon City has some awesome canyon carving roads and the TSX was a treat.

Anyway, glad to be part of the community and reading what everyone else has done. I'm sure I'll ask some dumb questions so be nice!!

I drove to Buena Vista a few weeks ago to go river rafting and those are fun roads to drive.

I paid $24,200 before TTL, and the car had 13,500 miles. I'm not sure of the standard equipment, but it has side air bags and premium sound. Since it was low miles it is certified with the 7 year/100k powertrain warranty.

That's good to hear, glad our TSX's are holding their value like true Honda/Acura's should.

On the other hand... why not spend a few k extra and get a truly new one? (I'm not ragging on ya, just wondering the rationale)

and congrats
