My-new-to-me 06 TL

Hi Everyone,
I just took delivery this past weekend of my new 06 RRP TL w/navi. It was purchased with a little over 3200 miles on it and is completely stock. I've been on cloud nine driving it in the Catskill Mountains of NY this past weekend.

As I mentioned briefly in a post to another thread, I've been lurking here for a few weeks and am really impressed by the level of expertise, enthusiasm and camaraderie found on these boards.

I'm Looking forward to participating (and modifying!), especially now that I have the awesome baby seen in the pic below

RRP is the classiest color out there. Congrats! Now throw the front Aspec lip on there at least.

Ha! Thanks, everyone, for your greets!

And there seems to be a consensus to loosing the front plate and going aspec, both matters of which will be taken under serious advisement.

tessler- Welcome to the forums and congrats on your ride!! The car looks great and the mileage is even better. Did you get a MT or auto? How much did you pay?

Since you live in NYC, loosing the front plate is going to cost you ... in terms of tickets and fines. Look before you leap

2 cents duly collected, Kenny. I'm a native NYer and believe you me, tickets and fines I don't need.

Thanks! The setup is 5AT. It was sold to us by my wife's brother after the recent sad passing of his wife. They were the original owners. Decorum prevents me from getting into details, so suffice it to say, he wanted to sell and my wife and I were in the market (and he's happy with the knowledge that it's in good hands: We are too).
