Athracite was the winner!! New TL Owner!!

Whats up everyone! Well, I got the Anthracite w/ Ebony and I love it! This car is already exceeding my expectations. I was worried about not enjoying it after driving a BMW for 2 years but how can you not enjoy this car with all those gadgets! I had no idea you can control almost everything from using your voice! The headlights are awesome as well. They remind me of my old S2000 headlights where everyone on the road thought my brights were on. So last night when driving home I had a couple different people flash my with their high beams...I love it! Haha.

Anyway, it's a great car and I'm definitely be around here pretty often now. For right now, I want to hardwire my V1 and tint the windows. I'm just ready for 600 miles to come!

Here are the details if anyone is interested:
2004 TL 5AT w/ NAVI
Anthracite/Ebony
Bob Howard Acura - Edmond, OK
$33,215 w/ 2 free oil changes

I took some pictures last night, but I haven't loaded them to my PC yet. I'll post them soon, but it's not like you haven't seen this car before!

Thanks,
-Brandon

The really fun thing is flashing your brights back at people who flash you. I had a couple of people do this when I first got my TL. I flashed them back to show them that I didn't have my brights on. Now, I wouldn't suggest doing this when both of you are going fast, but I did it on a slow road, so I wasn't too worried about doing it. Trust me, when you hit someone with those brights, they will go temporarily blind! Gotta be safe when you do it...

I love the headlights too...it's like daylight when I turn them on...
