Damn that white looks great! If you have relaxed tint laws, can you imagine a nice dark tint? Wow! That thing would look straight ruthless. White ext, ebony int, tint, nice.

The Queen's Casserole

Ingredients
4 lbs. lean stew beef, cut into 1-1/2-inch cubes
2 cans low-sodium cream of mushroom soup
1 cup cream sherry (Not cooking sherry)
1 package dry onion soup mix
1 can mushroom stems, pieces and liquid
Black pepper, freshly ground, to taste


Instructions
Spray a large casserole or roasting pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add ingredients; mix thoroughly. Cover the pan, then place in a 325-degree oven for 3 hours or until meat is fork-tender. If sauce becomes too thick, add a little hot water. Remove pan from oven. Stir before serving with long-grain and wild rice or noodles and a vegetable.

Ahh, if only it were possible to get the Ebony interior on the white TL.

Oh well, after seeing pics of the Quartz I think it would look just as nice.

Sorry guys, wrong cut and paste. I'm trying to attach a file - but it was too big.


I'll try again later.

Sorry to ask this question again, but any news at the R&D on the 6MT delay? Is it true that some dealers are not affected?

I've heard that large dealers, particularly those on the East Coast, are not affected by this delay. I contacted my dealer Tuesday and he said to expect my TL on or around 10/17. He said contact him in two weeks to confirm.

WTF??? Is this the cooking channel now? Are you planning on cooking on that red hot 3.2 engine?

I think if the body side moldings were gone it would look much better with the body kit. Too many breaks in the lines of the vehicle with the main line running across the top, side moldings, and then bodykit on bottom. With the side moldings gone, I think you'd have a nice clean, but sporty look. Is it possible for the Photoshop experts to delete the side moulding to get an idea??

Thanks and can't wait for the Ride and Drive in my area. Hopefully, I can sneak a pic of the A-Spec.

Nice work. The slam is a little too aggressive though. I'm still not feeling the kit. Any chance you can put window tint on it?

Just my $0.02, but it's looks like crap lowered. Looks to pimpy like that. I am really hoping the price is high enough to keep the teenie kids away from buying this car and bling-blinging it out.

IM guessing that body side molding comes standard on all TL's?? It looks better without the side molding and the lower valence kit!

I can see mine now: White/quartz/tinted windows/chrome rims/Maybe the lower body kit??? undecided on that one!

Photoshop gurus can you hook me up with some chrome rims on the whit TL Please

also booyah, Theres some pics of the ride and drive that dont have that molding, and

I think lowering it doesn't look as good, maybe it might in person, what benefits is there by lowering, except for exterior? Is there better tighter handling?

The silver TL below has no side molding.. It looks better, but those side moldings will protect against someone scratching your door wont it?

NO,NO! I dont want the lowered look at ALL.....to Ricey!! Im saying the body kit looks good in the white without the body side molding! Im sure it would protect against dings but I park my car way out on the far end of anywhere I go. Ill have to see in person about the side molding??

For the chrome rims...heck just use the 18's that are on the white TL! Thanks

I dont get it, you just want me to add chrome to the current car? I dont know how to do that.. Just find me a nice pair of chrome rims that you like, its so much easier to do !

lowering a car so it has a lower center of gravity and better handling is ricey? and adding heavy ass chromes is not?

Very sharp even though I'm not a fan of chrome. Glad to see these against the TL. Definitely gives the car a nice edge.
