I'm glad I'm not the only one that was thinking this

anyhow, nice pickup OP. as another person coming from a 2nd gen to a 3rd, you'll most likely forget you even owned the 2nd gen! 3rd gen TL's FTW!

Sweet congrats on the purchase looks like it already has some nice upgrades. Be sure to remove all that dealer advertising and that sunroof visor thing (if you havent already) :-)

Thats funny. You went from a black 2G to a black 3G.
I went from an AM 2G to an AM 3G. A guy at work was like, "Sooo, you went from a gray Acura to a gray Acura?" He just didn't get it.
Congrats and welcome!

Welcome man-congrats on the upgrade. I might suggest taking off the dealer name on the trunk. No need to advertise for them unless they're paying you to do so.
