More power to you, girl...was just being a smart azz to the guy that posted above me!
You'll get no hate from us...to be entirely honest, we love a girl on a bike or a girl that is into cars etc. I KNOW my fiancee gets a lot of attention for her 8th Gen with it being lowered, hid's and aspec wheels etc...

she says she doesn't care, but I know she digs it.

I see a lot of TLs around my area but they are all grandmas driving them. There has been only one instance where I pulled up next to another TL owner who was getting gas. When I got out to fill up my tank, we made eye contact and I said to her "nice car!" and she said "Thanks you" looked over and saw that I had a TL and she replied back "...yeah, yours too!". She was purty too. It was the best day of my life.

Acura should have had these offered in red but they didn't and now your TL is really rare and sexy.


You going to tuner evolution or wekfest?

Love the red, is such a shame Acura doesn't offer that color in their lineup. kudos to your bf. Did you wanted it red initially or he thought it would be a good color?

Well...what I thought would be a great time for photo op failed horribly at ETown this weekend. Met some fellow Acuraziner's...What a shi!tshow that was...I don't think I'll ever want to go again after this year. I wings getting primed and painted this week. Maybe next week I'll set up some time with my boy Dan, he takes amazing pictures. I'll keep you all posted.

Thanks for all the love! <3

Why did it suck?! Bunch of people that weren't humble and just sweating their own cars?
To be honest...I get turned off to the whole car meet thing a lot of times. The only meets I go to are really small ones with a couple of people I know in advance are cool.

I stay far away from meets that have "Honda" in the name. It's usually just full of old dookie ass Civics with stickers on the front lip and everyone talks about how JDM their car is.

You're right, I don't know.

I don't like seeing cars with more stickers than paint. Or exhaust tips larger than Folgers cans.
