Another trade up to a TL-S

Last night I traded my '05 TL 6-spd in for my '07 TL-S 6-spd. It is MRP with Ebony/Silver interior. I love it and don't regret it for a second! There are enough nice changes and improvements (beyond the obvious engine upgrade) that it feels like a much tighter and sportier car. What fun!

As a side note, anyone looking for a well maintained '05 TL 6-spd, ABP/camel...you might want to check out Muller's Acura in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. I traded it in for $26,990 and they are selling it for just $27,900. It has 14,800 miles on it with 3M clear bra, lip spoiler and magnaflow exhaust. It was garaged at work and at home. You can find it on autotrader.com.

A few days ago I traded in my 01 TL for an 07 TL-Type S in MRP with the taupe/ebony. I love the car. I am not a huge fan of the 07 Type S wheels overall. But in MRP, with my window tint, I think it looks pretty slick. Our other car is silver. And my tradein was dark blue. So I was going to choose something other than silver or dark/black.

Hello...I figured I would post some pics of my TL-S since it is a more rare color (Moroccan Red Pearl). If you look close, you will also notice that I had 3M Clear Bra installed yesterday. The installer did an incredible job (it is almost impossible to photograph)!

Hopefully this photo album works since this is the first time I have ever done this.

Peace!

Nice ride. I am waiting for my Kinetic Blue to come in and almost went for this one. Can I ask how much it cost to get the invisible bra on?

I am a repeat customer so I think he gave me a little better deal. Extended kit (24" instead of 18") with bikini cut on hood, fenders, bumper and side mirrors...$430 cash. 3M Expel brand. VERY please with the product...had it on my '05 TL too.
