Brought Home the new 2012 TL Today

It will be the wifes car going from a Infiniti G35...

Anyways this car was super nice and felt much more plush and still had enough power for her.

Got the tinted windows from the dealer

Now to decide on either black or chrome rims.

Check out the pic... Will I get Brownie points?

Crappy iPhone pics

Tell us what rims you go with. I'm going to look at getting new rims when I put the summer tires back on, but am wondering what will look best (Crystal Black Pearl with tinted windows). I was thinking black with just a little chrome, but the guy I bought from mentioned that he was thinking of getting chrome, and that got me to thinking.

Thanks Everyone- The Surprise was priceless. This was her favorite car of all we drove and she loves it.

The more im in it the more I love the features of the car.

as far as mods-Rims are first leaning towards chrome, thinking about painting the front grill white and some other minor things.

one problem - the door in front of the shifter is broke its hard to explain what it is doing but it is catching on something. I'm sure the dealer will take care of it.

It has the tan interior which looks great on the white

Bow was a loaner and a nice touch

My door on the storage cubby in front of the shifter also catches. I wasn't sure if that just required more force. Let us know what the dealer says.

Congratulations on the car!
