Noob, just wanted to say hi

Just wanted to say hi since I am new to the site. I just picked up my TSX this Monday and love it so far. It is CG w/ quartz interior, navi, and 5 AT. It was a pain to get one of these considering the 2 dealers here had a total of 4 in stock and only one with navi. It was silver and I don't like silver cars. I was really suprised that they only had 4 TSXs but had about 60 new TLs in stock.

I have to say, I love this car. I went from driving a 2000 Jeep Wrangler to this, so I can complain about almost nothing. The only thing that drives me nuts is the position of the door lock. I like to drive with my arm on the window ledge and it is very difficult with the door lock there. I guess it is only a small complaint considering everything else I like about the car. The only other complaint I have is not being able to drive the car like I would like because of the break in period (but that will only last a few weeks).

BTW, is there anyone on this board from the St. Louis area? I have only seen about 3 TSXs in St. Louis in the last year.

Hay kolky, welcome aboard man!

I hope you'll have some fun here, and maybe find some useful stuff around as well.

Welcome!
Quite a change from a Wrangler...I've always wanted one and still would love to get one as a 3rd fun car. I can't have one now b/c a car seat would look really funny in one

Enjoy the new ride!

kolky - welcome to the site Have fun with your new TSX (after the breakin period )

I have to agree with you on the door look ... the ones integrated near the handle like most of my other Honda/Acura products are looking pretty good right now

Check the Meet&Greet forum for folks in the St. Louis area ... there have been a few groups of folks in that area I believe.

60 New TL's compared to only 4 TSX's ?? I guess TSX's are still somewaht limited.

Aren't TL's made in Ohio too? While the TSX has to be shipped all the way from Japan...
