Picked up my new Black/Ebony 6sp Nav TSX today. I absolutely love the car. Everything about it suits me, especially the size. What a nice ride and tranny. I was getting so many people staring at it. Wow!

Congrats on the new purchase! A guy asked me about my rims the other day, if they came stock with the car. I have aftermarket rims. He wanted to know the brand. So I get a look now and then.

People will notice the TSX way before a Honda/Toyota/Mazda/Kia. Welcome to the family!! Are you planning any mods yet (tint, rims, clear bra, spoilers.etc)?

Me neither. But you'll have to admit everytime a passenger steps foot inside the car, they instantly give you the "nice car." As for exterior compliments... I was debating of whether I should scrape off the TSX ornament on the back and put a S600 on the back.

Neither do I unless someone rides inside. The second day I had it at work my boss asked me how I was enjoying my new Honda. I thought he was just joking with me, but he didn't notice the badging and just assumed Honda. I guess that was supposed to have been a complement...

I was thinking about putting a Silverado badge on the back of my TSX.

I actually had the spoiler put on at the factory. I am looking into tint, but really don't know anything about it. I don't want to go too dark, it's illegal in RI. I will get pics as soon as I take them. I thing the black looks so tight. I love the pearl in the paint too. Nice touch.

Question, under normal acceleration, where do you guys shift?

2.5K is the normal shifting point for me. But I don't think you should do that yet because you might still be breaking in the car. Vary your RPMs while breaking in.
