New 2013 SH-AWD 6MT!!!
Hello all, long time lurker first time poster. Just picked up a 2013 CBP/Ebony SH-AWD 6MT this past Saturday. Previously had a 2008 base TL followed by a 2011 base TL. Needless to say the ear to ear grin has not left my face since Saturday
.
I knew there would be a difference between the base and the SH-AWD but I had forgotten how much I truly love driving a stick. As much as I like it so far I can't wait to get some miles on it to open it up a bit!
Anyway just wanted to say hey. I've found some great info on this site in the past and I'm sure I will now be on here more frequently.

The 6MT club part is what I am loving. It was a royal pain finding a 6MT that was in the color combo I wanted combined with a deal that I found to be reasonable. That being said it was well worth the effort!

Congrats man, both on the new car and the 6MT! I had to jump through quite a few hoops to get mine and needless to say it was well worth the effort. The 6MT is a large part of what keeps me excited to drive my car (after over a year and a half of ownership).

Congrats on the new ride!
I don't mean to steal your thunder, but since this seems like a thread where a lot of V6 owners are coming, I figured it would be a good place to ask something I'm deliberating myself....
To all TSX V6 tech owners, why did you choose to go with it instea of paying ~$1000 more for a TL tech? Is it just the looks of the TL that put you off or....?

It's been 73,000 miles, now. Not a single issue. Not a penny spent other than predicted maintenance.
And I still find myself stopping my brain every couple of days and thinking, "What a nice car."

^^ Same here. But I only have 22K on mine, but I can't think of a car in this class (or an adjoining class) I'd rather own.

Thanks for all the comments everyone, as I accumulate a few more miles and wind her up a bit more my grin continues to grow. Such a smooth shifting tranny.....got to love it. If the rain would ever end I would give her a nice wax and post some pics.
