Purchasing A New Car...


No not getting rid of my car...My fiance is getting tired of her 2006 Mercedes Benz C230...

So far we have been looking at the TL, TSX, RDX, BMW 328xi, and the Jeep Laredo...

Acura TL Type-S

Acura TSX Type-S

Acura RDX

BMW 328xi

Jeep Cherokee Laredo


As of right now we are leaning more towards the Acura TL...I want the RL but that will be a few years downt he road...

Whatever we get will be Black with Black leather interior...

Nah not anytime soon...

We use her car for Road Trips and normally pack the thing full of stuff when we got to New Jersey for trips...

I prefer the Acura's actually myself as well...

Im really leaning towards the TL Type-S...Its like $41K fully loaded out the door...

Re: Purchasing A New Car...


I love Acura's, I had a 90 Integra before all the Fast n Furious kids appeared with there coffee can exhausts. It took a raggin all the way up to 160,000 miles then in 99 I sold it for $5,000. If i could afford one today id get rid of my cadillac for one. Go for the TL bro.

I like the looks of the TL I'm gonna check one out at the Hampton Roads Auto Show today. Also got my eye on a few other cars. I do like Acura's they are built nicely. Only reason why some of friends had problems with theirs is because someone smashed into the side of them.

We have the luxury deal now...The 06 Mercedes Benz C230 is nice and all but it is so effin expensive to maintain becuase everything has to done by your mercedes dealer that you choose or it will void everything on the car...

Its the same for the 328xi...

I prefer the TL Type-S myself...286hp/258tq...

That could be alot of fun IMHO...ALthought it will be the 5-speed auto...Plus all the extra $hit that comes on the car...

I hate the dodge chargers...I would not even let her look at them damn things...

The TL Type-S is right up her ally...Anyone want to take bets how long it will take me to get that damn thing force fed? My guess is one year...lol

You know what I find funny...Is that this car is more of a luxury car then her 2006 Benz...She likes it 10 times better...And the damn car is pretty quick from what I have heard from looking around...

I really like the damn car from what I have read and heard all over the net...I am kinda excited to drive it...lol
