Red face Going to sleep better now...

Finally, good sleep ahead..

Just picked up an 04TL Anthtracite 6MT,Navi,HPT..
3+ months of intel gathering, testdrove the Auto and 6Mt, and took the plunge today. 40 miles from home.

WOW! Hard to keep the RRRRRR's down--at times.

Setting the alarm tonight so I am showered and supplied w/coffee in hand by sunrise.

I love the smell of a new 04TL in the morning--Smell's like victory.

Big smile on my face, like the first time I got laid--NathanSilver

Congratulations. At least you live someplace where you can really drive it in December....that is, after it's broken in.

Thanks alot fellow 04TL'rs.
I can finally say that.

My trade in was $2200 less than I wanted to sacrafice, so after 5 or 6 offers--My final offer was $1k over invoice, and all acessories at "Internal Price."

This is the price the parts dept. pays, then marks it up for dealer cost. Then the dealer marks it up.

Never-the-less, to trade my car and get accessories: I probably wound up at about $1K to $1.3K unders MSRP after all was said and done.

Thanks Tristin (sales), and Ed (sales Mgr).
Acura 7/100K $0 deductible= $920 plus $100 comission ($1020).

Considering 50% tint.
Acura sensors Alarm system installed at my site, in a couple of weeks.

100 miles on the car as of now.
She's put to bed in the stable, as I am off on travel for 5 days--will be off-line (don't want to haul the laptop).

Last note: They must have 15 to 20 TL's on the lot!
NO Joke! Thomas Acura, in Covina CA.

Merry Christmas to all.
Love that Navi--I need to learn the voice recognition dialect....
