YES! I'm on top of the world!

I just bought the 2006 Acura TL. The color is anthracite, and it has ebony interior. No navi sysgem. I paid 31,299 for it. FINALLY a new car after driving my 1996 Honda Accord for almost 10 years!!

Great car and great price. I think you did well getting it sans navi. More user friendly. If I had it to do over I wouldn't get navi and would use a Garmin when I needed it.

Just one word of warning - if you pull on to a highway with brand new asphalt paving that is about as smooth a glass with a wide open left lane in front of you and find that everyone seems to be going slow - check that speedometer!

I did and quickly slowed down from 100 mph to the traffic speed of about 75 mph.

I guess I know that I have the power if I ever need it!

I have not had a traffic ticket for 14 years, not even a warning, so I will have to pay better attention now in order to keep the streak intact!

Have fun!

Mike

Congrats on the new ride! I got the exact same car, but in manual since automatic wasn't as fun to drive. I, too, came from an Accord, but mine was an '01 model in an automatic, thus, my move back to a manual car.
