So you guys remember I was asking about the Audi A4...

well i went to check it out and it looked great, BUT it was sold. So i drove to a few other dealers and here's what I ended up with..

a 2000 Acura 3.2TL basically loaded.. leather, power everything, heated seats, bose stereo, traction control, cruise,auto dimming rearview,homelink, probably about 50 more things i havent found yet.

they wanted 12,999 and said they couldnt do any better than 12,700. An hour later we settled on 11,800. The miles are pretty low too at 73k.

I feel dirty for buying a Honduh, but so be it, this is a NICE honduh.

I like this choice better! Congrats! Lets put a Vtak controller on it now!

smoger · 01-28-2007, 03:25 PM

i can't tell if these are hid or not? they do have the "warming up" effect when i turn them on, but from the front i cant tell if they are or not

Will@TurboTek · 01-28-2007, 03:27 PM

As much warming up as your SRT? lol, cuz those are bright!

smoger · 01-28-2007, 11:31 PM

thanks but no plans to mess with it. this is strictly for daily comfort

CleanNeon98 · 01-29-2007, 12:16 AM

they should be HID...good cars 5-speed autos are good

347gtvert · 01-29-2007, 01:03 PM

Nice. congrads

Honduh · 01-29-2007, 01:13 PM

Wait a minute....you feel dirty for buying a Honda? But you bought a freaking Neon as well? Are you on drugs?

Kerplunk105 · 01-29-2007, 01:15 PM

Nice car

I like those Acura's.

smoger · 01-29-2007, 01:34 PM

347: why the edit? didn't read the whole thing before the original?

thanks again everyone.

Honduh: it's the honduh community i dislike, and i hate the idea of getting closer to them. statements like yours are exactly why. "but you bought a neon?". well that neon was 20k, turbocharged, and had a full warranty. i mean, we all know civics are soo much better,.. what with their gold plated interiors and what not

statements like mine? dude you talked **** on honda's first. How dare you try and turn it around to try and make me look bad. It's people like you that I really hate, that know nothing about something, and try to talk like they know anything. True there are tons of idiots driving around honda's, I'll be the first to admit that. But I have seen plenty of srt drivers that had mommy and daddy buy the car for them and they know nothing about anything and try going around to race everyone. You sir, are an ASS.

Broken5hift · 01-29-2007, 05:11 PM

nice buy eric! i love those cars! my mom had a TL type S and that thing friggin moved for its size. I was going to buy one until i found my truck but you cant beat the comfort and driving of those cars. and yes they are HID's, very good HIDs. you can swap the bulbs out easily for brighter or cooler colors as well

right,.. im an ass because i dont want to be associated with tools like you

like i said,.. its the honduh community i have a problem with, not so much the cars themselves.

and yes a lot of srt-4 owners are toolbags, which is why i also tend to avoid associating myself with them as well. it was different when i first got the car though.
