I am, but the car wont be in for two weeks so in between time I think I can get a little more money for it instead of what they want to give me.

putting this here on the new page.

Got all these tiles I have to move around for my tile company and the TL no longer fits all that tile and grout. I need a big F650 and no longer need my pristine TL.

The paint annoyed me, and I never really felt IN LOVE with her. I hope my breakup is your gain. Put it this way, even Kim Kardashian has ex boyfriend's. Just wasn't meant to be.

^^^that's how it shoulda read!

PS, did you KEEP the '10 front end?

^^^that's why you're throwing in that trunk liner!
I'm sure you'll have no problems selling, Brian. Sell it to Matt!

PS...saw a white GS F Sport last night turning...it made my head turn...what a gorgeous car, man. Great choice.

How bad are the monthly payments going to be?

Hey Brian,

I'll be interested to hear what your thoughts are on how the GS F-Sport performs compared to the TL. I've been thinking of trading in my TL to get a GS F-Sport or an A6.

All I know is that back on stock shocks my car feels so much more unstable! I will give you a honest review without being bias.

Late to the party but... Damn! F Sport GS350!? No comparison to the TL. This was one of the cars I test drove before deciding on something out.... Beautiful car and a ton of fun to drive. Congrats. Please please post pics when it arrives!

Flaxen interior is the BEST!!

...if you scratch it, it'll get infected and you'll end up with an "empty" feeling that no other new car will ever be able to fill and then, in addition, you'll have an over $500 car payment.

AHHHH!!!!

Ok, fine, I'm just mad I don't live with my Mom anymore and don't have that kinda expendable income!

Your avatar was a good start.
Anil, I couldn't agree more...RWD platform is a good jump off point. THEN you can diet the fk out of it. Make your TL the daddy mobile it was meant to be once again, since that is the next phase of life for you.

Thanks for that, Anil. Nice compliment.
Morgan, and like in real life, you KNOW the CL will end up loving you more and better since you treat her like ish...the FR-S will take you for granted, put on 70 pounds and stop giving you bj's except maybe on easter and your birthday.
