picked up my '02 TL-S

so after gettin my headlights jacked on my 01 TL-P and gettin that fixed I have traded it in for a '02 TL-S....and man I have fallen in love with the TL all over again. The TL-S has more of a grunt noise than the TL-P and of course the pull is more noticable. The added features such as the memory seats and mirrors going down when you are in reverse are def nice. I was thinkin about gettin an intake however I am not totally sure if it will do that much for the performance, other than givin the car a deeper sound. Anyways CANT wait for the summer so I can hand wash this car. Here are some pics I took today (yea its a lil dirty cus of the roads in boston)

Regarding intakes... if you get comptech icebox, your car will sound stock. I do believe intakes will give you very minimal gain.... you won't even feel it. If you want to scare people on the sidewalk, try aem, injen or other intakes for the scary growling noise.

If that's the case, just leave it alone or get comptech icebox.

Your car looks nice. I just bought an 03 SSM TL-S with Nav in November. I see you live in Brockton, MA. Where did you buy your car? I got mine at Herb Connolly Acura in Framingham.

I LOVE THIS CAR!!!!! Yeah I know I sound childish, however the past couple days have been GREAT!!! I loved my '01 TL but everytime I get in my '02 TL-S I cant help but smile. I burned a CD and it worked without issue *does the cabbage patch*. I havent really driven this car aggressive as I have with my cars in the past due to the sucky road conditions in the northeast. However I am going to RedLobster in conn sunday (my gurl takin me out cus of the new car purchase) so I might 'test' it out a bit than. Anyways just thought I would share my joy with you guys...and back to our regularly scheduled forum browsing :-)
