1 year with my TL-S

So I have had my TL-S for one year today and I just have to say that I love this car. I hit 6,000 miles on my way to work this morning. When I checked my email I had a 1 year annivesary card in my email and I got a card in the mail on Saturday. I think I am going to keep this car for a long time. When I do get a new car in the future I think the TL-S will be staying with me and be a nice second car.
Here are a few pictures of my TL-S all cleaned up.

I thought I was a stingy driver when it came to milage. I averaged about 10K miles per year. I've finally hit 40K miles close to 4yrs after original purchase date.

I only have a 2 mile commute to work that is why the miles are so low. It still looks new thanks to all the Zaino products that I use on it.

Nice color choice.

Loving mine nearly 2.5 years later. Will definitely try to keep this car as well down the road as a 2nd car.

I had mine for 8 months and just shy of 5000. Going to Vegas this weekend should hit 5K. But I still love the Car every time I drive it.

As an Accord V6 owner, I can say with confidence that the TL-S is definitely a looker that catches my eye everytime I see one.

I have seen some cars with around the same amount of miles that are a year old and they look like crap. If the car had 15,000 miles on it, it would look exactly the same. It is all in how you take care of a car. I have washed my car 28 times in the first year and waxed it once a month. The paint looks better now then when I got the car a year ago.
