Picked up my silver baby last night :)

I'm in love. Shit, that thing will not let you go slow. I haven't even let into it yet and the thing just flies. What I'm most suprised about is how low the engine rev's. At idle mine is under 1g and even while driving it is pretty easy to keep it around 2 and still be moving fast. I can't even imagine what a ferrari or a porsche must be like. I'm going to start saving for the performance upgrades.

If you live in NJ,NY, East PA, hell, even CT you really should be going to Park Ave Acura, they know how to treat race enthusiasts, every other dealership either did not install comptech or had no desire to. Trust me, Wayne, Tom, Pete, and Jens will hook you up with the best service.

where did you buy it? I have to agree that Park Ave Acura is the top dealer in this area by far.

You must be strong! I have trouble picking up my lawnmower and putting it into the back of my uncle's truck. But picking up 3,500 pounds is impressive! Carbo based diet or what?
