I am VERY happy to say that after years of waiting and dreaming of this car, I finally picked up a brand new 2003 Silverstone Mettalic/Onyx Leather 6-Speed from Niello Acura in Sacramento!
The staff was VERY helpful. My experience was very pleasant unlike ANY other dealership.
I must say this car is one AWESOME machine. I flew to Niello Acura from Los Angeles, Friday morning 8/22, drove it down 100 miles to San Francisco, stayed there for the weekend, and drove it back all the way down to Los Angeles (almost an additional 400 miles) I got so many compliments from the residents in SF!
In Total, it had about 550 miles by the time I got back to LA.. The drive down to LA was mostly in 6th gear, and made sure not to rev over 5k even though it was soooooo tempting...
I thought 500 miles in 6th gear was a pretty good break in so I decided to play around a bit in VTEC once I got back will full throttle.. Hopefully, this wasnt too early!!!
Just to recap, the lease promo is as follows:
$2500 drive-off includes: $875 deposit, $600 (rounded) registration, first payment plus tax $864, and the rest for tax and license... All in all, I'm pretty confident that I got a pretty good deal.. $799/month plus tax, 36 months, and only 15 cents for overage on mileage.
Now I gotta get rid of my 2001 IS300. It is for sale. 31k miles, Blue/Black Leather, E-Shift, HID, keyless entry, 17" graphite wheels, L-Sportline bumper and rear trunk lip, H&R's... and more..
This car was definitely maintained well and is in great shape mechanically and cosmetically.
I will have pix posted of my IS300 AND NSX very soon!!!!
Thanx to everyone for all the help!
