Hey everybody!

Wow - I just found this forum. I thought the only TL forum was over at the Honda Acura site. I've been a member there for a long time, but sometimes days go by without a new post.

I have an 02 blue Type S and I got it as a daily driver. It looks just like the one in the picture on the upper right side of this forum. I have two other cars that don't do to well in the rain and I also needed something with 4 doors. I have been most pleased with the car so far, in the first six months the only problem was the rear view mirror broke off when I cranked up the base on the CD player. I added an AEM cold air intake and that took about 2/10 of a second off my 1/4 mile times.

I have not had the tranny problem and I thrash the car. I have run it down the 1/4 mile at least two dozen times. Here are my slips from a few weeks ago. Its consistant if nothing else -

My only real complaint is that I hate the torque steering. I don't like front wheel drive and wish this car could have been rear wheel drive.

I look forward to participating on the board!

None. In fact, I'm considering taking off the mud flaps the dealer had installed.
