New Acura owner......again....
Just got home with my 2005 WDP TL 5AT. Got one hell of a deal and the owner took me to lunch, gave me the all season floor mats and stuck the rear deck lip on for $200. Anything major i need to know or do to get her broken in? Loving it....again.....

Welcome...
There are many threads on the proper break-in of your new toy...
Do a search and thee shall be enlightened. Follow your manual and read up as well!
Short story:
- Take it easy on the brakes for a while to "bed" them in correctly (not at the expense of causing an accident however!)
- listen to the MID regarding oil changes... there are TOMES of knowledge on this that can be searched on
- personally, I took it easy on the engine (no hard accelerating, no high rpms) for the first 1000 miles. I am now at 1800 and drive "normally"
CONGRATS AND ENJOY
(now go.. SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH, READ READ READ) and see you in... 20 hours or so!
