Got my car today, wow!!

It is unbelievable. I took my wife out to dinner and selected a restaurant via the NAVI. Even she thought it was cool. I've had so much fun, we are packing tonight and driving to Key West for a 4-day weekend. Not planned, I just want to drive the hell out of this car, and need some road to do it! Everyone, have a good weekend!

Dang, I'm jealous! Enjoy.

Welcome to the TL-S club.

As Blackshadow mentions, be nice to it for the first 1000. Also, vary your RPMs. Don't hit the highway and leave it steady until you break it in.

Oops, spellcheck.

Try to be gentle for the first 1000 miles for break-in. Your TL-S will thank you later.

Congrats and welcome to the club! Take it easy for the first 600 miles, then you can start punching it a bit! Definitely vary the speed while driving to Key West. Acura says the worst thing you can do is drive at one steady speed during your break-in.

Have fun!!!
