My new daily driver
 
I was really torn between getting a 993 or a New Car with a warranty, well the safe side of me won.

Wanted some wheels with a little lip like my fuchs.

Sweet.
Nice choice on the wheels. Compliments the car without looking 'Pimp my ride".

Excuse my ignorance, but what is it? I'm not trying to be mean...it's just that in profile, I have trouble telling the difference between a BMW and a Toyota...

1973911s 06-04-2005 07:04 PM

Acura TL

It's an Acura...I'm just not sure which one, though.

**Edit - you beat me to it!

1973911s 06-04-2005 07:04 PM

Oh Haha,

Have you had a chance to drive one yet? I am sure I am going to take some greef over the lip on the back tire, notice the key fob?

Michael

AFC-911 06-04-2005 07:06 PM

Oh, I noticed the key fob on the wheel...What is it for?

1973911s 06-04-2005 07:08 PM

It is just showing the lip on the wheel, most peopel say you can't get a

275/30/19 on the back of an Acura, which is also silly as it is a front wheel drive car, but heck it isn't a porsche, and I like the look.

Michael

Oh Haha 06-04-2005 07:09 PM

I wondered what that was.
No, I haven't driven one but I hear good things. It really does look similar to a BMW, not that that is a bad thing.;)
What size are the wheels? I like the look of the lip, BTW.
EDT: Just saw the last post about the wheel size.

1973911s 06-04-2005 07:15 PM

The wheel is a 9.5 wide

Hey, don't be too mean...I've heard that the Accura is a good car...I guess it's the aero factors that make so many cars look alike to my old eyes...

I hear they have these "BBS" boards on the interweb that are dedicated to pimping hondas and acuras...

It woulda been hard to pass up a 993 dude...

kach22i 06-05-2005 07:08 AM

Needs one of these.:)

Why oh why did you pick the slow jap car over the world class 993

pwd72s 06-05-2005 10:43 AM

like the guy said, practicality...Most of the time, for the daily grind, I prefer driving a car that doesn't attract attention.

I couldn't agree more.
