My First Car!

Hello Acurazine Community!

I've been going through the forums here looking at the various TL's here, and it made me fall in love with the TL. So, this helped make my 18th birthday present an easy decision! Check out the pictures I took below:





2005 Acura TL (bought with roughly 53k, 2 owners)





I'm in love with it

Thanks for all the welcomes, and yes it is a very lucky first car to have. My father and I found it at a dealership for about $15,500 (options were non-nav, 5AT), and I had to pay 10% up front. I'll have to pay another 40% over the next couple years. Still, I consider it completely worth it and I love driving it
