New to thread...HI EVERYBODY!!

Just picked up my 2004 Anthracite TL last week, and I am so glad I bought this car.

I shopped around for a L-O-N-G time before making up my mind, and I have to say there are a lot of cars out there that do several things very well, but very few that do as many things as well in one package.

I looked at:

BMW 530
Mercedes E-Class
Infiniti G35 sedan
Cadillac CTS
Lincoln LS
Acura TSX
Lexus IS300

All good cars in their own way, but the TL offered the best combination of quality, reliability, features, luxury, sport and refinement for the money.

My only irk: The Autoshift automatically shifts you to 2nd gear in the sport mode; kinda silly, I guess.

I hope I can find some new friends on this board, y'all seem like a great bunch of people. I apologize for my rant in one of Gundar's threads, but he's clearly an imbecile.

Welcome to the site. Congrats on your new wheels. I should be picking up my Anthracite/Quartz 6MT Navi in about two weeks. I can't wait!

Welcome to the 04 TL club. Don't go too crazy during break in period. I'm almost done mine now, I'm at 850 kms.

Q: If right after the 2000 presidential election, the covers of major magazines like Time, Newsweek, etc. read
"It's About The Economy Stupid", can you guess what these magazines' front covers are going to say right after the 2004 election?

A: "It's Still About The Economy Stupid"

Not that I don't agree with you (I do ) but many of us would appreciate if we all would keep our comments limited to the TL. There have been threads that were taken off completely due to getting off topic.

Dubya, welcome to the BEST site for the TL!!

Pretty Dumb 'ya to bring up politics on this website Dubya. Since you mentioned it, our president is a fu@king moron, and I can't really understand what it is that you are so enamoured with that you'd actually choose "dubya" for your screen name.

Oh well, guess I'll just have to get used to you. Hmm. Seattle...there's a city that's really benefitted from the current administration.

Would you please clarify your position?
