New Type-S Owner

I'm picking up my 2008 TL Type-S, silver exterior, ebony/silver interior in a week and I really can't wait.

I'm so excited about this vehicle. The amazing body, engine capability and all over sexiness has won me over.

I'm just honestly ecstatic about being an owner of an '08 Type-S. The next 7 days of waiting for it is going to be Hell for me.

Thanks for the welcoming! Here she is "so far":















It still smells entirely like a new car...


The first thing to be added is tint. I live in FL so you all have to know how that reacts in the consistently hot FL sun/heat!

Congrats. I took mine out today for a ride even with a bit of salty slush on road. Driving my Pathfinder is okay but it gets me jonesing for VTEC.

We need an official TL thread in this forum.

I like the silver also and there is an '08 here listed for $35k with 4k miles.

Enjoy bud.

After all that it's $30,395. I truly got a steal. It was so unused by it's former owner that it still has the original new car smell. Yep... I'm in love.
