Maybe request quotes from Milwaukee and/or Chicago acura dealers.

I bought a brand new 06 Accord in the past from Wilde Honda in Milwaukee because RB Honda, which I had previously purchased 2 new cars from, was not willing to match it. Saved a thousand so worth the one way, one day rental for me.

I am glad that I kept my Winter tires on because it's a shit-storm out there! 169S had so many accidents when I was driving home from work just now.

I'll be going to Cars & Coffee (C&C) this Saturday in Chanhassen. First one of the season!

Who else is in??

For those of you that haven't been there is held at:

Auto Motor Plex
8200 Audubon Rd.
Chanhassen, MN 55317



For those of you going this Saturday, should we plan to meet at the Caribou coffee again? It's like a couple min away from the AutoMotorPlex. I usually like to be there by 6:30am or so. Address of the Caribou is below.

Caribou coffee
920 W 78th St

Congrats on 3rd place! I would have gone to C&C and the F&F7 meet but I was out all day celebrating my son's birthday. I am planning on showing up to Boost4Boobies on May 2nd and the MN Honda Spring Opener on May 24th though, anyone else planning to attend those meets?

What? you were there, I forgot that there was the show going on at Marcus. I caught the 1:10pm show for Furious 7 that day, didnt see your car there but then I wasnt really looking, just went straight into the theater and left straight home afterwards, too depressing to stick around and check out all the cars without mine

How's the trip going?

Today was in the 40s. Tomorrow is supposed to be raining and in the 40s too but this weekend is going to get into the 60s.

It's nice to finally have the Winter tires off though! Now I just need to find a nice day to claybar/polish/wax and detail my TL!

I still have to do the 105k maintenance timing belt/water pump, etc though. I held off this whole Winter but I'm planning on getting to that next week on my days off.
