My car came White Diamond Pearl with Ebony Interior. The dealer told me that only 5% of all TL-Ss are made with this color combination. . So I'm wondering, who else out there has this color combination. .. Really wanna know if my dealer is Bsing me or not. Post back please!

thanks

oh, and i posted a pic of my ride. . . woo hoo! sorry it isn't suped up much yet, but i'm workin on it!

I do.

I don't know about the 5% part, but it is true that white is the most rare color, and most of the white's you see have the parchment interior.

That probably is a pretty rare combination. Just don't let them use that to gouge you on the price- remember, if they only make a few of them that way, it's probably because there isn't much demand for that combination.

Only 5%?!? Really, dang..i wish that were the case here in California. I have one...and see a bunch of WDP's on the road.....most with Parchment interior. Oooh i love that car. At first I thought Aegean Blue was one of the rare ones.....aside from my friends..i've only seen one other on the road.

My WDP/Ebony is the only white car of ANY make with black interior that I've seen for quite a while. Never seen any other TLS's.

Hey PmpLuxCEO... your ride looks sweet. Do you have any hi-res pics of it? That pic you posted is a little fuzzy.....

I have one. Back in July when I bought mine in Colorado, they didn't seem that any rarer than the Silver--the other color I was considering. True, there were more Parchment than Black interiors, though...

I have one. When I bought mine, there was another WDP/blk on the lot. I don't think that 5% makes that big of a deal in terms of either bargaining power on the part of the dealer or uniqueness in terms of the buyer. You figure the TL-S is available in five colors (according to my brochure). Two of those colors have their choice of interior (WDP & NBP). So that's seven possibilities. If that's divided equally, each color combination comprises 14% of the total production. And they probably make a lot more of silvers and blacks since their really popular colors, so that skews down the 14% for the other colors. Taking that into account, 5% doesn't seem to be that small of a number.

I disagree. I think Dark Emerald Pearl is the rarest color for the TL-S. Especially since they changed to Noble Green now. Take a look at the board for truth on this. Only two TL-S that I can think of with DEP. Myself and Redlined.

bioyuki

There is one in my neighborhood...

mikester

One in mine too. It's probably a tossup between the green and white. I know when I bought my TLs, they had one each of white and green, as opposed to several each of the other colors.

I can't seem to find any Aegean Blue TL-Ses in the local dealer inventories in South Florida. But I have seen at least one White with Black interior and the dealer did not say anything about that being rare. Actually he was going to give me a good deal on the lease of a White/Black - $1500 total at inception, $419 per month INCLUDING taxes, for 48 months and 15,000 miles per year.

Type SSSS

im right down the road from you my friend

lilboykorea

damn i want a wdp/black interior.. they dont have them in canada... shi!tty...

AKRY

I would say Naples Gold/Parchment is the rarest color... I have only seen ONE!!!!

I would have preferred to get the ebony interior over the parchement that I do have...too bad we can't get that up here north of the 44....

lilboykorea

someone shoulld swap interiors with me..i got parchement...so anyone in vancouver...or close to my citie... who are willing to have parchement instead of ebony...would be cool...lol how hard would it be?... i think daniel did this, he has a black car with parchment...

evolaerok

Black is the rarest of them all! ........kidding........

John_TLS

My new type S has this combo and the dealer also told me that it is the rarest. I trust my dealer since he is my good friend

ChrisK

Rare? I know a guy in my state with that exact same color combo. It looks like it has the same rims too. Come to think of it, his car is brand new just like yours. Just kidding, I'll talk to you later.

RedLined

I have seen tons of TL-S. Most that I have seen are black, silver, or white. I've seen 2 ABP (one in NoVA and one in SC). I have seen one Noble Green. I have yet to see another DEP. Also, whenever I drive by a dealership, it seems all they ever have on the lot are black, silver, or white with an occasional ABP. That's just my experience.

Since white is one of the most popular car colors, period, I'm sure the WDP Type S isn't that rare, assuming Acura did some market research. But the WDP w/ Ebony might be.

pianoman41

I agree that the DEP is probably the rarest. I've only seen one and that was on a dealer lot and they discontinued it not even after one full product year. I almost got one myself but thought it was a little too close to black for my taste (and I know how hard you guys with NBP have to work to keep your cars clean).
