Proud new owner!!

Just bought a 2008 Acura TL Type-S Kinetic Blue Peal, with 38k also acura certified today, and my wife and I have not stopped loving it!! A little about myself and the car, my name is Jesse and I'm in the USAF stationed it Dover Delaware. I bought the car right as soon as i saw it in the back of the dealership getting ready to be put on the sales lot. Fortunately it never hit the lot haha, but sadly it's also not the 6 speed, which is good because there is alot of traffic on the east coast lol. Enough about me though, i do have some plans for the car like atlp's quad exhaust, j-pipe, and race pipe. Here's some pics of the car when we got home, more and better pics to come soon! Also i just realized that my wife was in the car when taking the picture haha.

Good one! Unfortunately you JUST missed a ATLP quad group buy. You may want to contact Heeltoe Auto to see if you can get one. They make them in batches, and not sure if they will continue to offer then for the 3G

NOWAY !!!
I just bought mine yesterday too brother ! Its an 08 typeS WDP. I loved the KBP color but couldnt find one in Sflorida that easily. I was looking for something under 30k Miles. Congrats and I guess we both are the official newbies of AcuraZine :-p

And one more thing, like SouthernBoy said,

Thank you for your services to the nation and to the world!
Welcome aboard !

You might wanna tell the dealer to give you a new temp tag as that one is expired. They wrote 01-04-10 prob ment to write 01-04-11. Not trying to rag on you just keeping the police off of ya.

I picked the wife up a 07 S WDP a few months back. I love the car, I drove it everyday while she was out of town the past week. I drive a F350 and swear I could not love another vehicle as much as it. After driving her car for a week I might have to pick up another TL.

Nice ride. I'm in SE PA, but frequently run down the Delmarva to go fishing or down to my parents' place on ESVA. I'll be on the lookout for you as I pass into slower-lower...

again thanks everybody for the welcome and it's my pleasure to serve in our military knowing that i can make one difference in our country even if it is fixing aircraft and not on the front lines.
