few crappy pics!

so i finally got the car last night, it drove amazing during freezing rain. Took some pics after the car wash. I know they suck but it was like 24 deg here. I'll take some good ones next week hopefully.

So there she is.... I love that color more every time I see it. I'm a big maroon/burgundy fan, had a few cars in that color. Sorta why I went with the Mayan this time around. Have fun! And I'm sure you're an intelligent 20yr old, like I was of course, so don't go looking to test out the 5 star crash rating OK.

My friends and I used up a few of our nine lives for sure doing some stupid stunts back in the day.

whats the acura name for that color? ebony interior? The pictures look fine to me. If you can - lose the plate/frame on the front. (the dealer should have left the body color plugs in the glove box - or can give you some - they have tons - from other cars - just snap in)

One bit of advice though, NOTHING, not AWD, 4WD, FWD will help you in freezing rain or other types of ice. Too many people with 4WD push the limit in these conditions, just check out the number of trucks, SUV's etc. in ditches the next time you drive in slippery conditions. The only thing that will help you on ice are studded tires, cable chains and to a lesser degree dedicated snow/ice tires with a rubber compound designed for ice.

This should printed, stamp, etc. on the center of the steering wheel of every SUV/AWD/4WD sold! Especially those sold to(this may sound anti-feminine) women!
