Awesome Christmas Present

On Christmas morning after all other presents were opened, my wife handed me one last present. I opened it to find a key fob. She told me to go outside and get my car. My mother-in-law was waiting across the street in an 07 WDP TL. It was the shock of my life. They even had a big red bow on the top of it (thanks to our sales person at our dealer)
Here are a couple of pics....hope they work.

Ok, they kinda worked. Can anyone help a technology challenged person?

My wife bought me my 07 Acura TL Type-S. I got it a little early. I had the brochure in the house. She got the alabaster silver color to match her 06 Nissan Pathfinder SE. I normally drive a 03 Ford Mustang SC Cobra. Since I got the TL, I have not driven my Cobra. She knew that only the Type S would would be good enough for me.

That's awesome... I was suprised with my car too. Before my TL I had been sharing with my brother (2004 Infiniti G35 fully loaded, body kit, the whole shibang - AWESOME CAR!). I originally wanted the '06 G35, but Infiniti didn't know how to negotiate well. My family knew the TL is my 2nd fav car and one night we were supposed to be going to dinner at a spanish restaurant (which so happens to be located directly across from the Acura dealership). My dad, uncle and I were driving there to "meet my family," while my dad was talking about how the TL is so much better than the G, and then my uncle said "Well, since we're right here why don't we take a quick look @ it?" (I'm still clueless @ this point - lol) We pull into the lot... and there's my family (all 6 of 'em) waiting in the front of the door... As we're pulling up - I saw a Blue 2006 TL w/ A-Spec pkg and Navi with a bow on top of it... you would think by now I would've figured it out - NO! Still clueless like an idiot. I said to my dad "I'll take the one with the bow!" And he turns, looks at my uncle, looks at me, and goes "Good. B/C It's yours!" That was the best gift ever. They got me good... I didn't even eat dinner that night lol - I was so excited to have my new car that I went cruising around Orlando for like an hour.

But anyway - it's easier to use www.tinypic.com for image hosting and it's relatively user-friendly - if u need help using it just ask. Enjoy the car!

I think that is probably the best way to get a present to. I like surprises, and most of the time I usually know Im getting the present before I get it

That is a rare sight to see.

Congrats on the new ride!

I, unfortunately, had to purchase the car last Christmas for myself.
