Post New TL owner here introducing myself

Hi, i am the proud new owner of a white TL with loaded with so many options. I just want to say hi and i look foward to speaking with all of you. I saw the car by accident on the way to buy a Pontiac Grand Prix, i had worked out a deal with the Pontiac dealer and everything, then i saw the TL sitting in used car lot. I decided to stop in and see how much. The guy said that the car has been sitting there for 6 months. It was some lady's car, her and her husband got divorced, he got the car and sold it to bother her. This thing is the best thing that has happened to me, i mean i was driving a mystique that was brand new and gave me nothing but problems. Anyway, i got the car with 21,000 miles for 24 thousand, that included tax, titles and all other fees. He also gave me free oil changes for a year, free bakes for a year, and free car wash/detail a month for a year. The best thing is that the warrenty expires in a year and a half or 50,000 miles and he also threw in another 50,000 miles adn 4 years after that for free. It has Navi, kit, chrome with blu emblems, and instead of the bose sub, it has a solobaric kicker. Do you think i got a good deal? Thanks.

yes, you got a decent deal. Very good move on picking that over the Grand Crap. You will see now that you own a Honda you will never go back to the American garbage again. Good luck with the car!

DUDE!! Welcome to the board. You better put away all your money before you gonna start spending it on mods. This site has me buying things for the car before I actually buy the car...(Scary, isnt it). Welcome to the board man.

Thanks everyone for being so nice. It's about 1 am in NY, and i have gone through a little bit of this board and all i see is a bunch of curteous and generous people. You guys are all mature and treat everyone with respect. Ive been to boardss like CLubsi, and all they do is lie about beating vipers and Cobra R's. I love my car and everything about it. The best thing is just cruising and watching all the heads turn as i role by. I don't think i will ever get tired of that. Thanx everyone. Oh and by the way its a 99 TL, and anyone from NY, let me know, maybe we can meet up and start a local TL club.
