Interesting colors

Hope this isn't a repost. Thought this color was pretty interesting, like an 06 KBP.

Something is off w/ that listing. It says it's an 06 but it has an 04 steering wheel and the wheels in the pics don't have TPMS.

Wrong-o. Those wheels are the 06 TPMS version. You can clearly see the shape in the above pic.

Yea, KBP is a TL-S exclusive color.

I have a feeling this car is a salvage title, price is pretty low for an 06. Owner probably decided to repaint during the repair.

I see at least 5 WDP TL's daily around here. It would be nice to have something that stands out and that nobody else has. I wish it was a little darker, but I still am a fan of it

I'm going with major wreck repair, whether it got a salvage title from it or not. Steering wheel was replaced and the car was repainted (they did a good job, though). I like the color.

That color is pretty sweet...agreed that it looks a touch lighter than KBP. Throw some rims, A-spec kit, type-s tails and a drop then that car is set!

I THINK it has something to do with the emblem on the center of the steering wheel

5 previous owners.. and the car was salvaged.... TWICE!!!!!! they put a "O" in the VIN # instead of a "0" to people cant run the report

it was totalled in 5/2006... and then again in 11/2008... the car went from Cali, to Maine, to Indiana, to Virginia, back to Cali

that shts been passed around more than Pamela Anderson

Holy crap - what the hell is that on top? A truck topper? That thing would stop a bowling ball off a bridge from coming into your sunroof - let alone a little wind/rain

this is an 04 TL:



the hazzard switch belongs to the 04 which has a larger button. 05+ has a smaller button with pass airbag light on it.



The seats have only 1 line of stitching on the butt, 04's had the butt print issue. 05+ have 2 lines of stitching



The 04 radio's have ACURA written in large text on the cassette door, 05+ have it written a bit smaller.



DANGER! One lug nut is missing, the other one appears to be a bolt, and as well there are regular valve stems (black rubber) and not the TPMS ones that are silver.

I'm pretty sure that's the OEM Acura Visor, correct me if I'm wrong.
