I started a new job a few weeks ago and there is about an hour commute to and from work. So the Taco just wasn't cutting it gas milage wise with that V6, so I started thinking about a more fuel efficient vehicle. Kelly and I went looking this weekend and found this. Not only was it affordable, but it was a pre-lease and only had 35k and still under factory warranty. Never any wrecks, always serviced on time and besides a little wear and tear from normal driving, it is in really good condition. It gets 30mpg on the highway, nice leather interior, tint, and an awesome sound system. I couldn't pass it up.

Well if you do what Peyton Manning says and stick a #18 on the side with some flames shooting up from the front wheels, you can get excited about that. :D

It's automatic, but has a sport shift. I hadn't tested it out yet. Although it's got a 4cyl engine, it has about 205hp and moves pretty quick cause it's a small car.

Dude the M35's are really nice. I wouldn't want to give that back either. I looked at the G35 and 37 sedans (had to look at 4doors cause of potential babies after the wedding :( ) and really took a liking to the 6MT S models. A bit out of my practical price range for the model I wanted though.

Re: Got a new ride this past weekend

Definitely a sweet ride. I used to have a Honda Inspire which is very similar to the Acura family. It used to drive like butter compared to some other cars I'd driven.

Btw, awesome sound system is always a bonus :D

Re: Got a new ride this past weekend

We just finished a lease on a TL and turned it back in. Not 1 problem with that car in 4 years. Acura was a fantastic experience. Solid choice Clint.
