FYI, this thread was started a few months ago and I believed SSS got us all beat by a pretty good margin. Back then he was closing in on 80K miles. I'm pretty sure he passed it now.

As for me:
1. 1999
2. Dec '98
3. 53K

1 - 2001
2 - 1/30/2001
3 - 6753

BTW, just went in for service today for the first oil change and to take care of a couple delivery requests.... Here are the issues I had since I got the car:

-A few nics on the dash (when I got it).
-Driver seat creak (TSB).
-A wrinkle in a seal under the passanger mirror.
-Alarm panic button too sensative, goes off incorrectly (TSB).
-Left front wheel lip was paited in a small spot where it shouldn't have.
-Left Outer dash vent will tilt up after the car sits still in mild to extreme heat.

Anyhow, just minor issues.... The only one that really bugs me is the dash vent, I'm guessing they'll just replace it, probably a fluke thing since the TL's and CL's I've borrowed lately didn't show this problem.

Loaner car: They did give me a loaner too, a brand spankin' new 2001 Integra. Not too bad, better than nothing or a non-Acura product.

That's pretty low. I was averaging 650/mo over the 3 years with my CL before I turned it in (lease) to get my TL.

If he owns so many Merc dealerships and a BMW, why would he get an Acura? And what about your '99 TL? You didn't list the mileage for that one. Just curious, which dealerships does he own, that is, what are the names of the dealerships?

Here are my stats:

You could take 2 months off, since it was in the shop for 2weeks tranny replaced, one month in shop for accident, 2 weeks now for another accident and counting.
