Ordered!

Another visit to the dealer, and this time we sealed it.
Deposit complete, now I play the waiting game.
2006 TSX 5AT w/ NAVI. Glacier Blue / Quartz. $28,200.

Of course they didn't have it, but managed to locate one and secure a trade for it while I was there. I should take delivery of this beauty end of next week or shortly after.

Pics will of course follow. Who can suggest an appropriate celebration for this conquest? I'll start by popping some champagne, but could use a few good ideas

Congrats on the car

As far as celebrating is concerned, I'd say copious amounts of alcohol are in order

Enjoy the car.

Thanks

I'm hoping the Glacier Blue ends up being pretty unique. Dealer gave me a "we'll never be able to find you one of those" speech. Then, he searches, manages to pull 1 from somewhere in Ohio. This guy really worked for me. Or at least, he made me feel like he was really working for me.

I originally asked for GB / Ebony. There were NONE of these in his list for the entire eastern seaboard. Phone calls to area dealers ended in sentences like "we're looking for one of those for a customer here too". Then, he pulls the Acura shipment list on the GM's computer: none produced and not pre-claimed. 3-4 month wait time. So, with the miracle find on the Quartz interior, I decided to run with it. I got to see a Artic Blue / Quartz in his stock, so I was comfortable enough with the silverish interior. Either way, this is gonna be a hot car, and definitly have that unique head-turning factor. I can't wait!

Nice color! Although I'd have preferred the Ebony interior.

Yaaaaai!
Congrats!!

...As for celebration suggestions, i do have a couple that i am sure you will enjoy!

Drive to the street corner where prostitutes "work", fill as many as you can in the TSX, prolly 3-4, put on the seat warmers, ambiant lights on, drive to an empty parking lot and have an orgy. best way to 'break in' the car. They will all enjoy the gear shifter!

Another suggestion is to fill 6 midgets in the back seat, and do donuts!

Glacier Blue=teh sex. The TSX comes in so many great colors I would have no idea which to choose. I've seen basically every color, and glacier blue is a great choice.
