Got my '08 Type S a big brother '12 SH-AWD Advance TL WOOT!!

Purchased my '12 AWD Advance package TL on 3/30/21 less than a yr after getting my '08 Type S & they look great together.Both are a blast to drive & offer a different driving experience!!

The AWD handles better by far..it is stock still but I have a stage 2 exhaust on my Type S so it just sounds & looks more aggressive.We just took the '12 on a trip to Tennessee & the ride was great,i put new Pirelli tires on it before the drive.Its crazy how much bigger the '12 feels than the Type S,no way the wife our 3 kids & myself could've made that trip in the S

Damn, I would love to find a Type S that someone was selling because of something as simple as a broken timing belt.

J35's are easily available and cheap.

Congrats on the 4th gen fleet. I love my 4G....its probably the best car I've owned (overall)
