Leaving the Forum...but not without giving some free stuff away!
Well guys, here is how it went...
I went over to the dealership today to look at some of the 02 / 03 TLs, crunch some of the numbers and see what came out. A 2002 Black / Black TL-S came out to about $291 / month with 5k down. It wasn't bad, but still didn't add the extended warranty since the car already had about 39k miles on it. On the other side, I was able to negotiate for a 2005 TSX for $280 / month with 4k down. It took about an hour with both cars until I realized which direction I felt most comfortable with, and I ended up driving a TSX home this evening.
I know that I have been part of discussions recently comparing both vehicles, and ended up leaning towards the TL-S... but for the price they were offering on a car with 11 miles..it made things incredibly close.
So, before I hop over to the TSX forums, I thought I would offer two things up for grabs:
1. Set of black, Acura all-season floormats. (yes, the rubber ones).
2. K&N Air Filter (TL-P) - only used for about 2k miles and still looks brand new.
Now, while my first inclination was just to offer them on a first come, first serve basis, I realized that it wouldn't be fair to those who just aren't on the boards now. Not to mention the lack of fun that we could have in this last thread.
So post a few suggestions as to how to do this, and hopefully both things will be on the way to someone else later this week.
Thanks again everyone!

Well I did want to keep it somewhat relevant so that the mods dont toss this out into one of the obscure forums. One idea of consideration was to just give them away to whoever gets the most girls in a picture with his TL...but that's me.
