My New TL!
Hey guys I finally picked up my 2006 TL today! I'm sure some of you read my previous posts about the not-so-pleasant experience at a local Acura dealership in Ottawa, but it looks like that was really a blessing in disguise as instead of a used 2004 TL I got a brand new left over 2006.
Its anthracite with the black/silver interior, automatic transmission and no navi (already have the Garmin C530). I think I got a pretty good deal (about 8 grand of MSRP).
Anyways check out the pictures and let me know what you think! I know its dirty already but in this weather what can you do

congrats on your ride. I picked up a Royal Blue Pearl 2006 TL with Navi in Nov.
I got about $5000 off MSRP.
I called 10 dealerships in Toronto for a left over White Diamond Pearl 2006 TL with Navi but none had any left over. =(

Congrats on your new ride.
Seal on a demo disk....hmm. They must have updated the disk since there is no Seal on my demo disk. Is this an Acura disk, or one whipped up by the dealership ?

After spending some time driving and testing out the features a couple questions have come up...Hopefully you guys can answer these
- whenever I change gears (automatic transmission) I hear this clicking noise which kind of reminds me of the noise made in manual cars...is this due to the manumatic gearbox or possibly due to the car being new?
- when you hit the trunk button on the fob does your trunk pop up all the way to the open position? mine just opens a very little and I have to pull it up...just asking b/c on my other car it opens fully
- is there a way to transfer a phone book from a cell phone to the car thru bluetooth or do I have to manually say each number to the car
Thanks guys!

i haven't experienced a clicking noise when shifting in my '04 AT...
and yes, the truck only opens a lil bit...you have to do the rest...
as far as i know, there's no way to transfer a phone book from a cell phone to the car...

Oh yeah, I was one of the people that chimed in on your earlier attempts at buying a TL. That being patient (and a little fortunate) thing worked out huh? Glad you are happy and like others said...WELCOME!
Now...modder up!!!
