How often do you see a Type S ? And have you ever seen a red one ?
I got my Type S recently. I only know of one other carbon TL-S in my area. I commute to Bridgewater NJ and I have seen maybe 5 of them in 5 years. 2 black, one silver, one blue and one white. I knew the girl who owned the white and the guy with the blue. Other than that I almost never see ANY TL-S's. I look for them in parking lots and never see them. And I have NEVER seen a red one, ever. Any idea how many acura actually made of this car ?

There was a 2007 MRP one here for sale a few months ago. It had aftermarket wheels, 65K and was $18K. The wheels on it were horrendous in the pictures.

I would say I see about 1 type S a week (if that) here in the far chicago suburbs. Thats just a guesstimate as im sure there goes a few weeks without seeing one or maybe I have seen 2 in one day. My work commute doesnt take me on any busy roads or highways so im limited on how many cars I see. I think MRP and KBP are the two most rare colors on the TLS. When I do see a TLS here around CHicago its almost always black, white, or silver. Then followed by Carbon bronze, then lastly MRP and KBP.

I very rarely see a Type S in Kansas City-unless I'm at the dealership.
I've only seen a MRP at our National Acurazine meet.

I see them from time-to-time. Mostly WDP, Black or Silver.
Lately - the past few months - I've seen 'em more often. I guess because they're coming of lease or going in as trade and so entering the used market.
But I don't think I've ever seen one in MRP.

I saw a super clean red Type-S with a for sale sign on it in the parking lot (car sale area) near the gym I go to. Saw it there one day and never again... I was thinking about looking. then it was gone.. sure was purty!

^here in Houston, they're everywhere.
type-s AND base models.
Like I said, just as common.
4G's are getting very common as well.
I see at least 4 daily, everywhere I turn.
ZING!

In the course of a month I see every single color, I would say MRP I do see the least amount of though. I rarely see modded ones besides our local meets. Every now and again I'll see just a real slightly modded one like maybe only lowered, only rims. I saw one the other day that didn't have tint or anything but just had switchbacks and HID fogs.

There is only 2 Acura dealerships in my state and I live about an hour from it so 3G's not very common. Not RARE but not common. There's a black base that parks in my church parking lot. There's a Redondo Red one that parks where I work. Other than that I maybe see one or two 3G's a week. Type-S's forget it. On my way home from work a silver one zoomed by me. Other than that I hardly ever see them. Let alone a red one like mine.
