asit, tsxei, RJK:-

RJK, i think we met during the 2004 Speed Run. i was down in Bombay then.

anyways, i'm in New York. not to far from Hackensack, South Plainfield or Philly for that matter.

lets plan up a meet sometime - difficult now that the holiday season has ended but maybe on a long weekend or something. or maybe a spring/summer drive along the Jersey Shore, or the Hamptons.

maybe, we can drive upto RI and pester Rehaan to drive those carts he and his colleagues assembled.

there are a couple of bhpians living up around Toronto too - not exactly Bombay-Pune distance but not impossible either.

well, lets keep in touch and see how things work out.

Thanks aah78. The TSX is a great car. I love it. But it started with the RSX. I test drove one and absolutely loved it. If I didn't care about 4 doors, I would have got an RSX type S in black. That thing is sexy as hell.

asit, RJK, aah78, Rehaan, Sorry I couldn't respond sooner because I had been out of town this weekend. Yeah, lets plan a meet during the next long weekend. A drive along the Jersey shore sounds awsome.

By the way, the reason I was out of town this weekend was I drove up to Detroit for the Auto Show. I managed to take a few pictures before the camera's battery ran out. I'll post them up probably tomorrow.

Mine was a 2001 Acura 3.2TL, at that time no manual option was available. But I was quite happy with the tiptronic. How can one not be happy with 3.2L VTEC?

Alright fellas. I just came to know about an auto show in Philadelphia. This is from February 4 to 12. I hear it is big. Do you guys want to meet up at that time and then drive to the show? For more info: http://www.phillyautoshow.com/home.asp

i'm not a big fan of Honda/Acura myself but theres no denying the fact that they make good cars, no doubts about that.
a very sleek car and the dual exhausts enhanced the looks. the exhaust note was very impressive too!

I can make it to the show on any of these weekends - Feb 4, 5 and 11. 4 being the first day may be crowded. Maybe we can pick either 5 or 11. What do you think?

4th & 5th were near-to impossible with Superbowl!!! the traffic leaving NYC was terrible from the 3rd (Friday) onwards.

11th's going to be a little difficult for me but do keep me posted in case you guys plan on something.
