Hello all, just wanted to introduce myself. Just purchased a "new to me" 2012 TL with tech package.

Car is super comfy and gets decent gas mileage. Averaging about 29mpg as of right now. Bought it as a car i can drive for distances and also to take clients out with. My other DD is a bit too loud for clients.

Now, just need to read a lot more on the car..

Welcome and congrats on your 12' TL! You can host pics for free on imageshack, and then just copy the link or jpg.
And then we get to see some pics.

Anrosphynx....Congrats on your new to you TL. You have made a great choice and will learn to appreciate the driving characteristics of the TL....especially if you got the SH-AWD but I think you got the FWD TECH. Regardless....a great car, lots of dependability and unique styling.

Thanks for the welcome guys. Mine is not a SH-AWD, its a FWD. I wanted better gas mileage, so this fits the bill.

Looks good in the pics, good color! Any plans for it? Tint is a great first mod, and not too expensive.

Thanks guys. We specifically wanted white as I think it looks best in that color.

No mods planned at all (other than tint). I also have another DD which is a G8 GXP that is thoroughly modded. So i would like to keep this stock.
