WDP/Ebony SH-AWD - is this super rare or something??

i have been considering a used CPO TL purchase... like a 09-10 TL SH-AWD.

I really like the WDP exterior color on the TL... I think the sweetest looking ones are white... not to flame the other colors..but I like the white...

but I HATE the light interiors... they get dirty fast... If I were to get a white TL it would HAVE to have the black/ebony interior.

i have used autotrader an cars.com and cant' find any in my area... it looks like there are some.. if I search the entire country... but it appears to be a very rare combo...

if you want black interior are you basically going to have a hard time finding black interior?

Looks like you already have two Acura's. Just order direct from dealer. Wait 4-6 months.

When i was looking for my tl, i really wanted white diamond pearl / ebony / 6MT.

I could not find that exact color combo in the 6mt, ther were alot of cbp/ebony. so i went with the wdp/taupe, and i like it .

at first i wasnt crazy about the light interior taupe, but it grew on me. you cant always get the exact colors that you want, unless you order a new one.....as marco said.

When we bought ours 6 months ago I really wanted a Taupe interior. It was not available then on the SH-AWD Advance, so we got it with the black interior. Now they have the identical car on their lot with the Taupe interior.

There are several 2012 white/black SH-AWD's on this forum. I can't speak for previous years.

I think what you're trying to say is that light interiors SHOW dirt more than a black interior. I don't think they get dirty any faster -- that happens regardless of the interior color.

I am opposite to you. I wanted a taupe interior to lighten up the TSX interior. But if you want an MT, you are now stuck with a ebony interior, no matter what exterior color, which is also limited to black, silver and white.

Yes you are ruight. When we were ready to buy, we wanted white with black interior. We bought our 2010 TL SH-AWD in Niv. 2009 so we got exactly what we wanted and I am totally happy with it.
I never liked light colored interiors as they do show dirt more than the dark.
So yes it's going to be hard to find that combo. I notice that some makes don't even offer white with black interiors and that boggles my mind?
When I bought my 4Runner back in 97 I wanted white and it was the end of the madel year so I only found one with the tuape interior and to this day I hate it.

I waited 6 months to find what I like.
If you really want something and like it..just wait...
Why get something you dont like is beyond me...especially paying serious money..

I got WDP with Umber interior AWD, pretty rare

Didn't think that WDP w/Black was that rare. I just bought my 2012 BWP 6MT w/Ebony in October/2011. My dealer didn't have one on their lot, but they located and had 1 at their lot the next day. I really wanted the White w/Umber, but only available with Automatics. Makes no sense to me, but oh well.
