Finally after much deliberation on TSX vs. TL and Artic Blue vs. Milano Red, etc.


I just ordered a CG/Quartz TSX 6MT Navi w/ fogs.

Congrats.

KC 2004 TSX

WOW!! What made you decide? Are you sure you made the right choice? Maybe you should think about it first, we wouldn't want you to make an impulse buy.


Congrat!!!!

Welcome to the family.

Thanks guys!! I should have bought one this summer, but I just had to be for sure. I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will let everybody know when it arrives. I am sure the color choice will make Wiz and Jason very happy. Every since I first saw the CG/Quartz in person it has been one of my favorites. But, honestly It was my wife's favorite. I never could make up my mind, she just helped a little.

It's my favorite color too. You made a great choice!! Get the chrome center caps. They really look good and they are not very expensive.

Good choice. I had it narrowed down to either blue or gray but had to wait for 3 months before I could find a gray one to see in the flesh. Once I saw the gray my decision was made: I bought one the next day!

I almost bought the blue. I wish we had the Abyss blue instead, however. I liked the red a lot as well, but I didn't care for the parchment/wood combination. The parchment/wood is much nicer in the TL.

prballard

You are absolutely right. I mean I have been looking at this car since Febuary.

Thing is, he didn't mind his Vigor that much.

prballard

A lot of truth in that remark. I will be sad to see it go. :'(

Contrats PRB. I'll be right behind you. My MSM/5AT/Nav TSX is supposed to arrive at the dealer today. They should have it preped by tomorrow.

Unfortunately, the paperwork is ongoing, and I need my wife's signature. She's out of town until Sunday. So I'll pick it up after work on Monday. Tuesday's a work holiday, and if the fall colors hold out, we'll meander through small New England towns, and let the Nav guide us back home.

tirebiter,

Actually you will be ahead of me. I am going to be waiting a few more weeks to get mine. "wife's signature"? Is that required in your state? It is for a house here, but not a car.

tirebiter

Sorry guy, I realized my error after sending the post. You still have that long wait ahead of you. I empathize.

The issue is that the trade-in has both our names on the title and registration. We live in NY, but buying the car in Boston (I'm onsite with a work contract). The easiest way to handle it was to get the registration transferred from the trade-in to the TSX. Otherwise, there would have had to be 3 round trips of paperwork from the dealer to the NY DMV.

This way, the dealer informs the NY DMV and my insurance company that the plates are being transferred, and they just update their records. The dealer seemed to be very familiar with this procedure, and assured me it will go smoothly.

Congratulations! CG/QZ rocks. You have to change your signature now to "I'm gettin' one."

prballard

I will wait until "I have one" to change it.

Congrats! I think you picked the better car. Can't say I agree about the blue though -- I love my Arctic Blue Pearl car!

Congrats prb!
I must agree with that Abyss blue on the TL. I'd die to have that paint on my TSX. I'd also die to have CG.

Enjoy it man

prballard

The CG was a tough choice. The Artic Blue was my first choice for a long time. I do like a lot of Acura's blues. The Eternal Blue is a great classic color. The Indigo blue the guys in Canada get is great as well. I still remember the first time I saw that color. It was on the cover of Honda Accord brochure from the UK. I still have a pdf of the brochure. If I could get that or the Abyss blue in the parchment and wood like would comes in the TL in a TSX it would be my ulitmate color combo. Quartz would look good in those colors as well.

The Artric blue is a fine color, one that I would be proud to own and almost did.

congrats pr...glad to see you have finally made a choice. I personally don't think you could have went wrong either way, but glad to see you picked a car just like mine! Well, except for the navi...and the fogs!

Can't wait to see it!

budzzz

I ordered the same setup you are getting Oct 17. Just got an E-mail from my dealer that we are looking at a window of Dec 15 - Jan 15. Waiting is very tough!

Hope it gets here in time for Christmas!!!:pfawk: What a great present! I will have to travel 250 miles through the mountains when it shows so I'll be hoping for some good weather!
