New owner of a 2012 SH-AWD 6MT

After a long search for the right car, I think I found it. Just picked it up last weekend, I love everything about it so far. It has just under 39k on it, drives like its new. I figured I'd post some pics after my wash/wax session yesterday.

Thanks man. I saw you just posted on the other '12 sh-awd 6 speed. After that one sold, I went to check this one out up in wisconsin. It was at Brookfield Acura, right outside of Madison.

Makes sense, as there were only three 6MTs in the Chicagoland area and surrounding states....and you and djoulez have the two black ones and the white one is still at McGrath Acura of Westmont.

It was too far of a drive to check out. I did get info on the car. In case you didn't know, it had a few warranty repairs (front door window run channel, rear interior light panel, and propeller shaft).

At least you should not have the propeller shaft whining noise that others have experienced, since you have the latest part revision.

I knew about the window and light, actually didn't know about the propeller shift though. I guess that's not a bad thing though, already taken care of. thanks for the info

yay!!

Congrats!!
On iPhone with no emoticon thingy. But I'm looking for the cheersing one.

Your wax job looks amazing. I'm ashamed to say I've never done a wax job before. But the detail work that the dealer did on this car was pretty stellar I think. I might bring it back to them to do it again in 6 months.
