PreludeVTEC01's 2015 Acura TLX (V6 w/ Advance Package)

The 2015 Acura TLX just started showing up here in Georgia yesterday and truly hit the dealer floors today. I went this morning to look and sure enough I drove one home! One of the first to take delivery in Georgia and first at that Acura dealership. I had wanted a TSX or TL for the longest time and finally with the merger of the two I figured it was a perfect time to get a new car. My Honda Prelude, which I did not trade in, I have had since brand new in 2001 and have babied it for over these 13+ years. It feels so good to have a brand new car which I am sure a lot of you know. It has ever options I could ever want and love the color! :dblthumb2:

(crappy cell phone pics in an even worse location... better pics to come soon)

Congratulations! Nice car! There's also nothing quite like the thrill of being the first one on the block (or in the country), as well.

Enjoy!

Let me also extend my congrats!! She/He looks nice (not sure if you consider the TLX a he/she - Maybe it's a hermaphrodite)

Thank you everyone for the kind words! The past 24 hours have been so much fun!

ACCURATEin - You know I haven't even thought about mods yet. A dark grill will be a great addition to the front end. I hope the aftermarket does well with the TLX. Coming from the Prelude, we didn't get hardly anything.

Again thanks everyone. I should hopefully give it a true detail one night this week with a good polish and wax. So then I can get some pictures with my DSLR. If there is one thing I can say.. the interior is killer in the evenings!!

Looks super sweet! Congrats!

Aren't you supposed to wait to wax it for the first time? Or am I way behind the times?

Thank you again everyone! I would have never dreamed the welcome would have been so warm. I promise I will have some really good pictures here soon (next 48 hours). Sadly we are having weird weather here in Atlanta the past few days with rain storms nearly every day. However I will get some really good exterior and interior (along with everything lite up at night).

the car's paint has been cured for a while. it's perfectly fine to do a full detail, including paint correction and wax on a brand new car.

its the freshly painted pieces that you cant apply a polish or wax too. (think accident; insurance replaces bumper with new freshly painted bumper.)

Congrats! Such a gorgeous car! I'll be looking to upgrade from my 2004 TSX over the next year or so!

off-topic, but are the rear brake lights LED? or did they do the strip like the MDX but keep the brake lights non-LED?

Thanks again everyone!

deepen03: Good question. I have no idea honestly. I will try and remember in the morning to look. (or someone else will chime in)

I could be wrong, but you might also be the youngest one with a TLX for a while.
