forgot to post pictures of it after i made my thread regarding it. i got an 06 acura TL.

i waited for one with black interior over the tan, and i decided to get a navigation model also. factory heated seats/mirrors, nav, moon roof thing. great manners and it runs pretty strong for a stock car. i think its rated at 260 horse.

i'll be tinting the rear tails/side markers lightly, windows i got done already. it came with some kinda intake, might do exhaust once i can hear it in person prior to payin for it. i also ordered my new wheels (below) tonight. they should be on the car friday.

Ok I fell behind. You're not getting another Termie but are getting this TL (typing that gave me a Suzuki flashback for a minute ) and will keep the fox?

yep, thats it JT.

i test drove a TL for the hell of it about a week before i bought one. i always kinda liked them, then i drove one. the rest was history.. i paid a little less for this car then a termie. it fits the bill a little better as a daily driver haha. insurance on it is still a bit spendy being 22 though, cant win them all i guess

Nice decision for the DD. And it should require less tinkering - it'll be a reliable driver. Fuel filter changes should go well too.

dont even mention fuel filters lol.

thanks for the compliments. oil change and trans flush done today. hoping its good for awhile now.

the stock wheels aren't too bad. however, these have some nasty curb rash on all 4 wheels. so aftermarket wheels came really quick.

really? i thought maybe i would like it, but nah..

the tan ones have woodgrain accents inside. the black have more of a billet/metal trim. that fit me much more, lol. if i was looking down at woodgrain all the time, i'd feel like i should be in a suit or something.

i am being transformed into a lazy ass behind the wheel though. morning commute now consists of heating the seat and setting cruise control. i still drop the hammer on the way to work in the stang however.
