I ordered an AB/C 6MT w/o Navi that I pickup mid-March.

I have...

2001 Saturn L200 - Lease that goes back 4/15 (thank God!)
1999 Accord LX - wife's car
1989 Chevy S-10 - Errand runner / crappy weather
2001 Yamaha R1 - Track bike
2001 Kawasaki ZRX1200 - Street bike

I can't wait to dump this POS Saturn!

02 Toyota Avalon (old people car)

2003 Honda Accord Coupe 6 cyl.

Traded in my 2002 TL-S which was WDP w/parchment. Twelve previous cars (too many to list), but prior to that had the following Honda/Accura products. I'm definitely a Honda/Accura girl!

'98 White Accord Coupe
'97 Champagne Accord Special Edition
'92 White Accord Sedan
'88 White Accord Sedan

Do you see a pattern here? Champagne wasn't my color so that car was traded in quickly.

I'm not! I had one and that is why I was dead set that I was getting a SPORTS sedan. That Avalon was a marshmallow to drive!!

'93 Acura Legend L Coupe, 6-Speed, Type II Engine
Black/Tan

I had over 165,000 miles when I traded in. I miss that car sometimes...

92 Legend Auto, 292,000 miles original engine and tranny,

Still have it and drive it 80 miles a day to work and back.

"Made In Japan"

Hope the new one does as well.

I'm still driving my 1998 Ford Contour with a Black 2004 Acura TL A-Spec on order. Dealer told me it should be delivered early April. Till then I'm counting down the days.....

1996 Camry, 4 cylinder. Before that I had a 1984 300ZX (original owner). Its nice to have some decent wheels again!

I had a 2001 Infiniti I30...

00 TL + Nav (DVD) / 03 MB E500
99 TL + Nav (HD)

Re: This
 

That is one gorgeous black Legend. I wish Acura would bring it back. (Swoons from the car's beauty)

2001 firemist red Mercedes SLK 320. Great car, but obsolete after 2 kids.

'98 Honda Civic Si. Want to buy it, lol :P

93 Civic DX W/all upgraded Parts for 3yrs--Got rear ended in 96.
96 Integra GSR for 3yrs
99 TL-1year--Didn't like 1st gen navi.
00 Prelude SH-1yr--Can't go fishing, snowboarding, camping
02 Outback L.L. Bean--2.5years and keep it for few more years.
04 TL 6MT w/Navi--My wife's first new car--She'll drive Mon-Wed, I drive Thu-Fri, rainy, snowy....
To be honest, I am hoping she gets tired of 6MT and start driving Outback.....hahaha

:banghead:

This...

and this...

02 A4 1.8T Quattro - Sold it b/c someone offered me a ridiculous amount of money for the car including mods

97 Integra GSR - My first dream car, wanted one since I was in high school, bought it, modded it, then fell in love with the next dream car, the new A4.

If it wasn't for the person offering to buy my A4, I wouldn't be getting the TL, but the deal was too good to pass up.

'92 Vigor with 210K miles on it. Gave it to my son on his 16th b-day last month....he was VERY happy....until he road in MY new TL. "Dad...can I use your car if I go on a date?"

Wife traded her T&C for a new MDX at the same time.....we made our Acura salesman VERY happy !

Currently driving a 2001 Saab 9-5 Aero.....All being well I'll be driving a 04 TL Dynamic within the month.
Cheers, Manumad

I still have my 1997 NSX. I had a 1993 Prelude VTEC that I sold about 1 1/2 years ago. My wife has a PT Cruiser and we have an old 4WD Pathfinder. And my 21 year old Honda Nighthawk 650 cc motorcycle.

'94 Mazda 626 LX-V6. Consumer Reports never seemed to like them, but it was a fine machine....traded it in with over 130,000 miles on it. Have to admit, though........ not even in the same universe as my new TL!

I am hoping to do the exact same thing. Just close to paying off the Gold 00 TL (I love the car)....but the 04 is just so so so tempting. Hopeing to make the upgrade in a few months, right now cant afford the couple of k loss that i will have to eat.

I think this thread is a testemant on the accura customer loyalty

:D

1998 3.5RL Navi...still have it.

97 VW GTI VR6

'96 Dodge Caravan. Obviously my NBP 6sp '04TL is a major upgrade. Actually, damn near anything would have been a major upgrade!

1996 INTEGRA
 

It was a fine car but time to upgrade.

'01 Audi A4 2.8 Quattro Tiptronic, red w/ecru leather, 64K miles.

Before that: '94 Nissan Altima GXE auto, burgundy, 78K miles.

Now: '04 TL 5AT Navi, abyss blue pearl/quartz, just over 1K miles.

2000 Volvo S70. then one day i was taking my kids to school. Light turns green and a 16 year old who was late for school, ran a red light, plowed into me and totalled the car. Insurance gave me a good deal for it though. and fortunately my kids were totally fine.

Ok, here's my list best as I can recall.

'76 Datsun B210 (Honeybee edition; I.E. total stripper) Bought new, first car of my own. A tad embarassing to drive to high school, but better than the bus or walking.

'80 VW Rabbit. (The reason I will never own another VW/Audi product for the rest of my life. - It aspired to get to the level of POS.) Also bought new. 20+ years, and it still pisses me off! VW's advertising slogan back then was "It's not a car, it's a volkswagen" Should have been my first tip-off that it's not meant to be used for transportation. I've convinced several people not to buy VW based on my experiences. VW cust. service was beyond horrible.

'74 Mustang II. 4Cyl, stick. Stripper, no A/C. Bought used.

'76 Mustang II V6, Auto. Had A/C, main reason for getting it. Also used.

'82 Buick Skylark. 4cyl/auto. Got very cheap from a friend.

'88 Chevy Nova (I.E. California-built Corolla) Also bought from (different) friend.

'95 Mazda 626LX 4cyl./auto "program car" bought from dealer. Found out later it was a Hertz rental. Didn't have tranny problems, but MANY others did, thanks to the ford-built auto. Not bad, first decent car I'd had in a very long time. Minimal problems.

'00 Honda Accord EX-V6 Sedan. Bought new, right off the truck, had 1 mile on the OD. Now has 26K on it. Had it's first unscheduled maintenance 3 days ago - had to replace the battery. Has a couple of rattles at times that are annoying, but no other issues. Could use some more low-rpm torque, though. Still like the Signet Silver color better than any of the current Accord/TL colors.

Soon:'04 TL/5AT/NAVi/Anthracite. Will probably order in the next month or 2.

Hm... 26K miles on a '00 car... I don't know what to say other than you treat it like it was a Enzo Ferrari :D

99 TL/ Non-Navi

Current List:

04 TL 6MT NBP/ Ebony w/ Navi
2001 Mercury Mountaineer AWD
68 Mustang Coupe (wife's car)
80 Corvette Silver 4MT
80 Corvette White 4MT
88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe 5MT

Selling T-Bird

WRX:eek:

O2 Denali XL

damn thats a lot of bimmers!:wow:


4 someone w/so many bimmers, how does the new tl compare 2 them...the good, bad and ugly...

I had a 99 TL

1998 E36 M3
2001 Audi S4

2002 Ford F150 Supercrew
2000 Ford F-150 Flareside
1999 Mitsubishi Galant VR
1997 Toyota Corona

I treat it like I have a 5 mi/day commute (one way) to work. :D

If I wait till I NEED to replace it, I'l end up with a 2010 or later TL. :) It's too early to be thinking about replacing it, but I'm still drooling over the TL. Much as I like my Accord, it does have some annoyances.
