Default 2006 Acura TSX

NEW PICS ON PAGE 2


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



As a few of you have known, I have been in the market for a new car for a while. I had a 2006 Nighthawk Black Pearl Acura TSX 5AT Non-Navi, but found out that I would be giving my car away to my younger cousin. After searching around and doing some test driving, I had narrowed my choices down to the 325i, IS250, and another TSX w/ Navi. Well, it came time to get a new car last week, and I decided on...








































Another TSX! What can I say, I love this car! It has enough power for me where I won't get myself into trouble, and it handles pretty well for a FWD Sedan. Not to mention, you really can't beat the price. I was very close to purchasing an E90 325i, which is a freaking awesome car, but realized I didn't need a 40k car at my age; I should be, and am, happy enough with a 30k car. My mother, uncle, and I headed up to Sunnyvale Acura on the 16th of December to get the new car. We were thinking about getting a 2007, until we saw the last 2006 on the lot. It was a Alabaster Silver Metallic w/ Ebony interior 5AT Navi TSX. We went inside and talked about a deal, and they offered us 4.2k off MSRP for the 06, so we took it. I had my mind set on another Nighthawk Black Pearl or a Carbon Grey Pearl, but the more I look at my ASM TSX, the more I like it. Plus, I really don't feel like washing the car every week!

I was supposed to have a photoshoot with my friends E46, but he couldn't do it because a service engine light came on in his car. So I went out today to take some quick shots; I'll have a better, more professional, photoshoot soon(w/ a cleaner car lol ops: ). So here are some of the quick pictures!

First, the custom shot of course:


Here is a shot of the Multi-Information Display right when I was about to drive her home from the dealer(she had 13 miles on her when I got there, and I put 7 on her during a test drive).


Here she is right outside the dealership. I'm about to drive her home =) (The Xenons appear pretty yellow...I think it's because of the flash)





Just a random shot of the navi-screen while at Chevron...I love it! hahaha





Mods? Well, I just bought the Harman/Kardon Drive + Play iPod system for my car, so I will be installing that soon. I'm also thinking about a tint, perhaps 35% on all the windows except the windshield. I will also mod my two piece key into the brand new 2007 Acura TL flipkey. I'm also thinking about getting a Valentine 1 w/ Invisicord. Then what else...hmmm, oh yeah, a UC Irvine license plate frame...lol That should easily take a whole second off my 0-60 time.

What else I would like to do, but won't do soon, is get a set of Tein Coilovers w/ EDFC, 18" Volk or BBS rims, and an Injen Intake.

I've had her for a little over a week, and I already have around 570 miles on her lol

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/Happy New Year everybody!
