But bumper to bumper warranty?

Are you the new Doug?

So I can save the Prelude for fun things. It hates being dailied.

Congrats! I’m looking forward to hearing more about it and seeing more pictures!

Yeah, it’s pretty rare. It was a great price, too.

Of course, because “Nobody buys luxury cars with manuals” — naturally. /s

I’m debating whether to get a warranty. On the one hand, it’s literally an Accord and built very well. On the other hand, I believe in the Prelude Curse, and these were built in the same plant that the Prelude was.

Thanks. I’m bringing it home tomorrow, will have more pics then.

Hello to your new DD. 2009 Acura TSX with a 6-speed.

It’s lovely!

Hmm, I have wanted to consider a third gen Acura TL-S as a daily. But I dont think I could go back to wrong wheel drive. A friend had one and it was quite nice before he totaled it. Bit of a rare car to find in manual as well.

It really is.

07/06/2017 at 19:00, STARS: 1

Honestly, I think that’s why this car was as cheap as it was ($11k). Dealers aren’t fans of luxury cars with sticks. Especially ones that aren’t from Germany.

1st gens aren’t too hard to find with sticks. But I had to jump on this one because 2nd gen manuals are practically unicorns.

I thought you had the slick, modern 5th gen Prelude for DD and the 3rd gen Si for weekend?

"interstate366, now In The Industry" (interstate366)
07/06/2017 at 21:59, STARS: 1

I do, but the 3rd gen hasn’t run properly in months and the 5th gen needs some work as well. And i’ve wanted to get something newer for a few months (since the 5th gen had a few things break on me in succession).

So what you’re saying is... You got 4 cars now?

"interstate366, now In The Industry" (interstate366)

For the time being. The 4th gen will eventually go to my stepbrother, and the 3rd gen...who knows.

You bought the only car where the Acura Beak actually works from a design standpoint.

"interstate366, now In The Industry" (interstate366)
07/07/2017 at 09:17, STARS: 0

It really does. I’m actually starting to like it more with the beak than the overseas grille.

I KNEW IT

trunk looked similar to mine, but slightly different. Nice find with the stick, those are rare.
