Excuse the mess in the garage. I'm loving the car so far! I know lately there has been a lot of pessimism on Azine about this car, but its a very nice ride. I Negotiated a smoking deal on it as well! The safety gizmos are great and the car just really loves to fly at higher speeds. I had her up to 110 mph at one point while going home, and the car just wanted to keep going. I did notice a tiny bit of lag on the 9 speed at low speeds, but I think with me driving in sport mode daily, that should iron itself out. The Jewel Eye headlights are super bright and the seats are very comfortable, just like my mom's Odyssey van. Honda/Acura is still using the same female voice for navigation though, even after all these years, which I found funny. I know I'm gonna love this car longterm. It reminds me a lot of the 3rd gen TL in style and size.

Very nice, I was deciding between graphite and black when picking out mine. I went with darth vader, seeing your pics makes me want to double back ever so slightly... but not enough

Not sure if that's reflection of something else but did the dealer not give it a detail before handing over? That big 3 on the hood should definitely not been there when taking possession.

The first time I saw the graphite color during my test drive in AZ, I knew I had to have the color. It really sparkles in the sun

That "big 3" is actually the OM symbol, drawn in turmeric, by a priest. I'm Hindu, so I took the car to the Temple after purchase. Had a pooja (blessing) done there for the car. I did another one the next day at home. I have pics of all the poojas as well .

Ah thanks for the insightful info! I had no idea that even existed

Congrats, nice car! I have the same exact TLX even down to the colors lol. I was gonna go with black but after being a given a grey demo, I fell in love with the color and I also like that it's metallic. My MDX is black and I regret getting a non-metallic color, it looks sleek at night but in sunlight it's a whole different story with the paint swirls. I came from a 4g TL so it was a big leap but overall Acura did a great job on the car. Do you plan on getting your windows tinted? I have mine scheduled to be next week, 35% front and 20% in back. Once again congrats!

Thanks man! I'm loving her so far . Oh yeah that gray is sexy. I fell in love with it as well, during the test drive. It really sparkles in the sun. I'm probably not gonna do any tint. Its pretty strict out here in California.

Really beautiful ride there. I love the gray and was going to go that route, but my TSX that the TLX replaced was a similar color... I wanted a change so I went white.

Enjoy... she will give you years of great service!
