They bought it for $22K!!!! They tried to give me $19,500 and I had to go back into negotiation mode and won! Woo Hoo and I paid $21,400 I think it was one year ago when it had 35k miles, now it has 47k. Thanks for all your help guys really appreciate it. So hopefully I like the one in New Jersey tomorrow and after I put my 19's on and a fresh coat of P21S on Saturday morning I will take some pics.
Now in your new ride.

Hopefully everything has worked out and he's on the road back to Cleveland in the "new" RL.

Sorry got home on Friday and didn't log on Friday night or yesterday. Woke up a 6am on Saturday morning to start cleaning her up and put my wheels on, love it! Cleaned interiCar is in my garage and P21S'd up! Absolutely love the Opulent Blue Pearl with the Ebony interior. It doesn't vibrate either like my other one. It has a few of the normal problems that I will have taken car off. Both side mirrors have the shaken syndrome thing. Driver’s side headlight does flicker a bit when sitting. Also the rotors are warped and need to be cut or replaced. I think my battery may not have much juice either. Going to do some research in other posts as I can't remember if I can get the headlight and battery replaced under warranty? I'm so happy guys I can't even describe it. I'm going to go to the body shop where my car is tomorrow and ask them how much they would charge me to swap the rotors from my old car to this car. The insurance company put four new rotors on my old car. Also I'm going to try and trade the wheels and tires that came on this car with my wheels and snow tires that I were on my old car. Loading pictures right now.

Word of advice: keep the wheels. They look pretty good!

Very nice. Looks familiar.
Are you planning to add the mud guards? Or will than not fit with your wheel package?
Also, I noticed your exhaust tips. Did you remove the black paint from the inner portion of the exhaust tips? I have seen these same tips on a few other Honda vehicles, where they are all silver, but on the RL they were black from the factory.
I liked your RRP RL (my former TL was RRP) but as you see, OBP shows the depth and luster of the RLs finish even more. And I love that sapphire glow the OBP gets in bright sunlight.
Enjoy it.

I hadn't thought about the mud guards but maybe I should living in Cleveland and all. The exhaust tips are a funny story, the stupid guys who repainted the rear bumper probably did the most horrible job you could imagine and painted right over the tips, BS. I couldn't get it off with anything but paint thinner and all the paint on the inner portion came off too. I think I like it like that but we will see what happens in a week when some soot builds up.

I didn't get the check yet. What they do is pay off my loan on the other one and then send me a check for the difference. I went to the body shop today and had them swap out the new rotors that were on my old car and give me the new wheels and snow tires from the old one. I also nabbed my wood shift knob, couldn't switch the steering wheel since it didn't match, though the black leather knob looks a little funny with parchment ha. The OEM wheels that came on this one weren't in as good as shape since the insurance company had given me all new wheels during this time to try and fix the problem. Tampa I love this color and the depth is awesome!
