Pickin up my Type S tonight

I'm picking up my new silver with ebony Type S tonight. I paid 28,800. I figured I could get it for 28,500 or a little less but I thought the offer was fair enough. This is gonna be fun.

Welcome and congratulations on your new car. Be very careful not to get addicted to the vtec until after initial break-in. Then you can add a cai and enjoy yourself.

I bought it at North Hampton Acura. The salesman was great but the finance guy was a bit of a dick.
I live in Dover right now.

Congrats on the new purchase!!
Make sure the dealer cleans it up real well before you take it home. They like to miss cleaning that light film off the interior back glass for some reason or another.
You will enjoy this car!

Good luck!

Who was the finance guy? Brian? Yeah he is a real dickhead. That is our center for the Seacoast Hawks. Ernie the sales manager used to be on the team until he decided to start his own team last year. Brian is only a dick because he can't be a cop anymore. Now he uses customer's to be a bully instead of the PD.
PS Dont you think he is small for a center?
