New to the board..>

Hey guys....

I'm new to the Acura world and just wanted to say "hi". My wife is picking up her '03 Type-S, 6-speed tonight. It is one amazing car and I can see why so many drool over this car. I'm from the Nissan side of things and let me tell you this car is no Nissan. Fit and finish, overall quality of the car is great. If anyone has anything they would like to share with someone new to the Acura world it would be much appreciated.

Thanks...

My wife has switched cars 4 times within 2 years. Kind of like someone else I know.:P But, I think we found a winner. The "S" is sweet and she really didn't want another 4-door car in the family.

I would wait till at least 6k-9k before switching to synthetic. I send my 3k oil sample in for a test, and my seals are still seating. I will send in my 6k soon.
