Yes, I did. Just closed the deal
2007 KBP TL type-s 6MT with 99,000 miles. Original asking price was $16.5k. I talked them down to $15k after they realized I would have to pay for the timing belt service out of pocket soon. Came to $16.4k OTD. Beautiful car, great condition. Only thing that I dislike is that it has the tan interior. That will soon change as I will be swapping my type-s interior to the KBP.
I've never driven a manual more than 5 minutes in my life. I have a 14 hour drive home to learn I do have a motorcycle, so I understand how everything works just things like sitting on a hill etc worry me. Hopefully I don't smoke the clutch too much.

Drop thousands of dollars on parts for TL at one time. Install said parts. Realize a day later he wishes he had a 6 speed. Buy's 6 speed. Can't drive it home. Profit?

I put over $5k into my 5AT over the past month. All of that aside from the aspec kit, paint job, and ingalls rear camber kits is transferable over to my new 6MT kbp, so not too much of a loss. The time spent, I cannot get back.
I also came out with a 6MT, a car with 50,000 less miles than my current type-s, and the most coveted color available for our cars aside from purple I don't think it was a bad decision at all. Here's to me not burning up the clutch on the drive home. Too bad I can't learn to drive standard on Youtube

Couldn't have said it any blunter, Aaron. I realized that I wasn't going to be happy modding my 5AT into oblivion and that I longed for something that was as fun to drive as it looked from the outside.

and like you said you can transfer over mostly everything you want to and just sell your current TL 100% stock. i'm looking forward to pics and a full report!
the TL's manual tranny is a bit finicky and takes some getting used to but you'll have plenty of time to figure it out on the way back from picking it up.
congrats man.

Dude.. I have the strong sense of friendzone here.. sorry Justn..
Rule #1... the lady has to respect you. If she doesn't, it's not going to work out.
..and I'm not talking that respect for another human being, but that big daddy respect ya dig?
Best of luck though.

Looks like Justn can look forward to girl dates, bellinis, chick flicks, shopping, and gossiping about guys for the next several years.. "Oh Justn, why can't I find a good guy like you?" :gheylaugh:

Maybe she'll let you toss her salad before kicking you out.
On the real though.. Don't act goofy and shit, otherwise you cement the friendzone. Be a gentleman, a man she has no choice to respect, and make it clear you want to make babies, but don't say I want to impregnate you.
Don't you dare talk about your butt buddies on Acurazine.
