Fahrvergnügen'd
He sold it with about 250k miles on it about 15 years ago so he drove the hell out of it ... The only thing I really recall ever going wrong was the electrics ... When you put on the turn signal all the gauges (including the speedo) would swing back and forth based on the timing of the blinker ...
It's why I'm considering getting one even though I'm an Audi whore.

04 TL with all the typical bolt-ons. Here's a VERY old pic. I've done the heads (custom), tails (custom), rear sidemarkers, and exhaust since this was taken. Back on stock wheels, too.

Been about a year since I lost the 06 TL. Got broadsided then pushed into oncoming lane where it met a truck head-on. Gave it's life for me.... Still miss that car.
Driving isn't really the word for manuevering this. More like piloting a river barge....

Poll results crack me up. There is like a 60/40 split in pictures, with the majority being non-Acura's... meanwhile, the pool shows 60% Acura owners.
at the people coming out of the woodwork and voting to bump up stats 
BTW, some nice rides you guys have here

Lots of nice cars posted.
I must admit, however, that the above is my favourite. Arguably not the best one here (no offense to the poster), but I've always loved cars a few years old that are clean, uncluttered, stock, and obviously cared for. Kind of an understated elegance. Simplicity often speaks volumes.Again, just my personal tastes and not intended to offend those that take their automobiles in a different direction.

After driving my friend's old Suburban, old American driving scenes seem much more believable.

I'm boycotting this thread because of the Subaru snub in the poll list.

Just snapped a couple quickie pics (no glamour shots at all) with cameraphone of the '06 G35 and the '03 Accord...please excuse the dirt!
My dirty girls...
Some Infiniti love (only 35k miles)
The Honda, now over 100k miles

I've got odd taste in cars.... still driving my '02 Z28, it's been fun but I'm looking to get into either a smooth V8 cruiser like a GS400 or something smaller, fun and fuel-efficient with a manual like a GS-R. I can't decide.
Ideally I'd want a 3G TL-S 6MT or an '06+ Tacoma... but they're still a little too expensive for my liking. Chances are I'll probably end up with a motorcycle

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
I should have done the same Matt. But I can't help pimping Subaru.
And Terry, my car is stock, except for the K&N air filter. And I love the fact my car is 5 years old, the previous generation, and I get locals asking me if she's brand new.

Poll edited to allow for the piqued feelings of slighted Subaru owners.
Damn, look at all those Acura owners. I guess all those jokes about "Bimmerzine" are just jokes! This is DEFINITELY Acurazine.
BTW, who is the other Cadi owner? Delurk!

I had the case of the Mondays when i made the thread. Forgot even Toyota! Thanks bob for the edit!
The cool thing about the list is that there are owners of almost ALL the brands here.
