Congrats on the purchase, I am trying to decide between this and the advance package. How much did you get it for?

Congrats! We really like ours. It does ride a little better than my '13 and the throttle response is better. Really noticed it coming off the stop. Very "techy" and takes some getting used to! Wife really likes the "dual screen" and the touch screen for audio.

I picked mine up two days ago! White Diamond Pearl with Black leather interior! Love it (although I find the seat a little uncomfortable - too hard for my liking)

Congrats to all. I will buy mine later in the year. Krisbo26, I saw the photo you posted in the other thread. Really nice looking. Even the wheels look nice and unique to me. Too bad I cannot get white with black interior in the U.S. I may have to settle for slate silver because I prefer lighter exterior as they are easier to hide dirt.

I'm sure you will like the slate silver - that was my second choice....either way you will enjoy the vehicle!

Your OTD price is not much higher than the sticker, guess you don't have to pay sales tax on the car?

Can you elaborate on the navigation improvement part?

The second screen serves as a keyboard no longer have to use the center button like a mouse pad I really didn't like that on the TL's

That's with high California taxes and all included. I got it for $2,940 off the MSRP. I haven't seen a better deal posted yet.

How did you get this color combo? The "Build and Price" option on Acura.com ? Official Home of Acura Cars and SUVs doesn't allow this combo (regardless of trim chosen). That's the combo we want, but were thinking we had to go MDX instead (which does offer WDP with black interior).

Update: I realize you're in Canada Canada has this option; the U.S. does not (which makes zero sense to me)

Canada has this option, can't get it in US. Doesn't make sense to anyone except some exec at Acura.
