Crazy! Getting second new TL in 2 weeks!
I started a post about two weeks ago when i purchased a 12 tl with tech forged metal. I've been regretting getting a boring car so I decided to call the dealership today and see what they can do. Turns out there was a problem with my paperwork so I can just come in and hand it back! Couldn't believe it! Just got to the dealership and paid $3K more and getting a white on black sh-awd 6spd manual. Soo excited. Will post pics when I get home. I knew I was gonna hate myself for not getting exactly what I wanted two weeks ago because I got caught up in the moment and wanted to take a new car home. Let this be a lesson to all; don't rush and make sure you get what you want!

so i still cant believe i did this; just got back home and wow the sh-awd vs fwd is a night and day difference. taking corners and highway on ramps is much more enjoyable.. the only down side so far that i can see is that the gas mileage is considerably worse (17/25 vs 20/29). here are two quick pics in my garage as it was getting dark

lol thanks, forged metal is nice as well. my ideal would have been graphite w/taupe interior; but the 6spd manual is only available with ebony interior.. either way when it comes to the manual it's slim pickings and you take whats available

Let me add my congrats on your new car! Being a BWP owner with SH-AWD and Tech package (with those same 18" wheels), I can assure you that you have a nice car. I don't mind the stick but prefer the AUTO for a few reasons but regardless, that is a GORGEOUS car you have there. Any plans on putting some accessories? I see you have some splash guards on the front and back...were those already on the car or you bought them? My rear ones are B/O and never put any front ones because of the side skirts.

Nice deal you executed! I know you said you're done for now with the tints-let's see how long you can hold and and not let the "mod bug" bite!
