Just bought...

an 07 TL-S 6spd today. 14,000 miles, morrocan red pearl. Figured I would sign on to one of the acura forums. Had a 93 integra for the past 7 years, sold it last week. Great car, I already miss it. But can't complain about the TL (at least not yet), very nice car.

I'll post some pics up tomorrow.

Welcome aboard. I too had an Integra, an 88 LS. Loved that car; love my TL now. Hope you enjoy it as much as your Integra.

Thats a great great price. I picked up my 06 w/navi for $25.5K @ 18k miles in Jan 08 and now i feel ripped off lol. Why did the original owner give it up?

I don't believe a word the dealer says, but they said he was a photographer and he needed to buy a truck.

That's a steal!! Welcome! AZine is the best place to learn about maintenance for the TL, known problems / fixes, and learn about aftermarket products, what works / doesn't..

That MRP has really grown on me since I bought my car! It always stood out to me, even when the TL-S first came out... But I've come to really like it! Good pickup and welcome!
