Just joined the 09TSX club

Picked her up last week, Tech Model Polished Metal Mettallic with Ebony interior. Eveything on the car just feels well made, and until you see a 09 TSX in person you really don't realize how beautiful the car is. I've yet to see pics that really do the car justice, mine included

Congrats! I have to agree about the pictures. The lines of the car are so dynamic that a static image of the car immediately looses 50% of it's visual appeal. It's like trying appreciate the craftsmanship of Michelangelo's David from the photographs. Sure you can see everything there is to be seen from the pictures but the experience of seeing such a piece of art in real life cannot otherwise be replicated.

Welcome to the club, hopefully you'll enjoy your CU2 as much as I've enjoyed mine. That color was my 2nd choice had I not gotten black. Love that color.

Thanks for the notes. Interestingly enough, I was originally going to go with black, but in person really loved the PMM. Either looks fantastic...

Cheers

Yeah, the car plays heavily with three dimensions. I love that belt line crease and the low riding look, both of which are lost in pictures.

ramossp, lovin it! Same as mine! My first choice would have been a black as well, but "external pressures" led me to choose the Polished Metal Metallic. Welcome to the club! (:

^ Sharkskin is what I called it when I bought my PMM. Yeah, I said bought, paperwork in hand, me at a dealer in Jacksonville, car at a dealer in Gainesville, FL. By the time they stopped picking their collective noses in Jacksonville, *MY* car had been traded to Orlando.

F'kers.

Anyway, congrats and you'll enjoy it a lot.

Funny about the shark comment, I have the Grigio Metallic, and my boyfriend's mother said that between the color and the XM antenna (looking like a fin), that she thought my car looked like a shark. So that it now its name...the Shark.
