I think the over skewed amount of blown trannies on this board is beginning to add up
There is no way that young studs can keep their foot out of this car, regardless of what they say. I remember how I drove at that age... I finally wised up when Dad no longer paid for the repair bills...

I would have emailed you away from this site but appaently the profile is off limits as well as the email notification unless you fork over some $$....sorry, not worth it to me.

I've lived in Roanoke for almost 26 years now so I guess I'm a native. I'm a Knight (your arch enemy!) class of '88 but I had many good friends who went to PH and even dated a girl who graduated from there while I was in college. I also played soccer with a lot of the PH guys on some of the select teams.
Once you have that baby you'll wish you had grandparents near by. We have 2 kids and it sure is nice to have my parents around for free babysitting.

I'm 30 and work by arse off to have this NBP TL-S.
My first car when I was 18 was a '78 Toyota that if I could make it work, it was mine for $200. How the heck do you people under 25 afford these cars plus goodies

28 male. 2002 SSM 2002 TL-S. Some of you 18 and 19 years old are so lucky. When I was 18, I had a 1982 Mazda GLC that I paid for at $2000 by working every weekend in a stinky restaurant. Now graduated a few years with an engineer degree and finally able to afford this car. Don't forget to count your blessings kids.

19, male, drive a 2002 ABP TL Type S. Bought it when I was 18 since I had been working for 5 years and wanted to reward myself. Please don't assume that someone who is young must have gotten the car as a gift.
I love my car, otherwise I wouldn't have put so much money into her.

I'm 18 male. I have SSM TL-S. Oh and I'm making my own payment. The downside is I never see the light of day. Work 70+ hours a week so there

when I was 18 I bought a new '95 Sunfire GT and was happy with that! At 21 I bought the '98 3.0 CL, and bought the TL-S when I was 24. Problem now is the RL is too "old" for me, so I guess the NSX will have to be next!!

Wow
I'm shocked to see so many "under 30" members here! In Los Angles, I only see 60+ drivers in gold TL's! Only a few S's around town, and most look older than me
I'm 35 by the way
New Tranny has been in for a week and now problems. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Engineer who wanted something worth the price of admission. Ended up falling in love with the car.
to Jofunk: I would say the TL-S is definitely not a "chick" car, but I do love to see women driving them.

37 Male with a 2003 WDP TL-S. I feel old here but it's probably more of who's on the net.
One review I saw said the demographics of the TL is 45 and $85k salary/year to put it in perspective.
When I was 18 I drove a rusted out '74 Vega. When I was 36 I drove a rusted out '88 Integra.
I have 4 kids, a wife and a nice pad and was able to pay cash for this one!
