Sweet, goodluck sleeping tonight ;-) Is it automatic or 6spd manual? I really like that color and certainly would have considered purchasing it but the best 6mt S I found was black. Can't wait to see pics of it.

Congratulations! It's always exciting to be picking up a new car, even if it's just "new" to you.

Clean car. Perfect reason to upgrade to some ALTP Quads!! Actually someone has a factory type-s exhaust for sale in the black market for $375. Congrats on the purchase!

Thanks guys for the links, looks like I might have to rely on a exhaust shop to help me on this one. I am really pissed off about this

That hilarious that you were the purchaser of the car that had its own post dedicated to it here on azine.
Just curious did you not know about the exhaust tips before hand? I agree they for sure gotta go hopefully you can track down a nice set of OEM mufflers or some sort of aftermarket if thats what you like.
Congrats on the purchase, the car looks great!!!

its nice to kno that buying cars on ebay motors is legit. i guess it only works if the seller happens to live close cuz shipping a car is $$$.

congrats on the new whip. I'm guessing the seller upgaded to the 2012 TL because the exhaust tips remind me of the ones on your car.

I like it Alot Except for the Tips of course. If you lived closer I would sell you my exhaust and buy the ALTP Quads. Im in love with them Quads and might buy them soon. If i were you i would just forget the OEM Quads
