Random sightings...

Was watching the BBC's the Sky at Night when I saw this:



This episode was about star camps. Cool to imagine someone taking all their gear in their Accord wagon.

Maybe this can be the start of a random sightings thread?

Actually, it was the exhaust tips that were missing. I guess it's kinda hard to see in that picture. Here's another sighting from today, my first Milano Red SE:

Only Acuras I've seen are either old 1st gen TSXs around the hood, or the newer models on the highway around LA whenever I pass that area to go on one of my many roadtrips recently.

You joined A-zine a year and a half after I did, and you have more posts than I do. I'll leave it at that.

I drive 0.7 miles one way to work, and usually see at least 3-5 in any given day (mostly 09-10s, but starting to see more 11-12's). Unfortunately, one of the main reasons why I wasn't sad to see my '09 go. Just too many damn people have them in this city. TRENDY as fuuuuuuk. I love the car but like to stand out a bit differently ya know?

Yeah, I'm starting to notice a lot more '11s and '12, especially the SE. I wonder if the "SE" badge appeals more to the general public. Anyway, here's another random sighting, and not even USDM!!!

Wow, looks like it's dropped, too. Wonder who it belongs to?

I've owned a CU2 for 3.5 years, and this is the first year where I've really seen other ones out and about. I guess that's why it seems like such a big deal to me to see others on the road around here.

Here's another one I saw yesterday, a relatively rare 6MT w/ Tech, plus it has a towing rack:

Wow, I certainly wasn't expecting these reactions to my post. Although I am new to the forum, I have been quite impressed with the helpful and knowledgeable contributors to AZ, as I have received useful tips and advice in response to my questions. Furthermore, I have generally found Acura owners to be friendly.

I can't believe I have to defend myself on this matter. However, due to the unfortunate lack of females in this forum, I felt that I had to respond to the likely incorrect and unsubstantiated assumption with regard to TSX drivers, female or otherwise. I apologize to followers of this thread for the unfortunate digression this otherwise entertaining thread has taken.

I have no opinion on TSX drivers, male or otherwise. I have observed that threads in which females have posted generally tend to "explode" in terms of post count. That is all.

That post was made in jest. Everyone jokes around here and sorry if you took it personally.

I know now that I don't have that special Ed's mom joke ability so I will only reply with seriousness from this point forward.

Sorry TSXgal.

Thanks - yeah, since I'm new I can't really tell who is joking and who isn't. That should come with time though. Plus I'm a lawyer - so I tend to jump in with my argument before I necessary should in instances like this. Ok, now please more random sightings!!!
