Gorgeous cars. I'm torn on black because I've always loved black, it looks amazing on this car but I also really like the contrast black elements in the front and rear bumpers and hood. I also know that I'd be forever tempted to do Xpel Stealth on the whole car for the satin/matte effect, and that's another $7k...

As for the rattles and interior noise- from my impressions while driving the car, it is WHAT IT IS, you can't have your cake and eat it too with cars like these. This happens with Porsches all the time; you'll get guys coming into the forums complaining about road noise... well that's what you get when you have big tires and a chassis designed to communicate what's going on to your senses. Last I checked hearing was a sense!

Also Acura actually did a great job with the cabin noise, my 718 is louder, and a 911 is actually pretty ridiculous, especially over bad pavement.

Is xpel stealth really worth it? Gloss or satin? I’ve always wondered with such a high cost why not just repaint the entire car?

Repainting the car does not offer the impact and scratch protection that the film would provide. The satin/matte look is more of an added bonus.

Is it worth it? That's really up to the owner to decide.

I need to see this color in person. In some lights it's yellow, in some lights it's orange, in some lights it's bronze. Does it have a "static" to it? Want to make a drive up to Massachusetts? Lol.

I negotiated some accessories into my purchase that just got installed today and I'm really glad I did--loving the way this thing is coming together!

Sweet!
I plan to also do the pattern generator, illuminated door sills, and front badge, heated steering wheel, and a few other things, very nice.
I love the black, I am too lazy to go black as it makes me want to wash the car multiple times a week, I'm going with white or tigers eye.
enjoy the car, it looks awesome.

Most of the time it's a brilliant color , it's a yellowish golden mix I haven't seen it in the sun yet it's been raining in Virginia for a few days

I'm honestly so jealous of these nice accessories and that exhaust note is just ... *chef's kiss* I want one now. Enjoy it!

If you're getting these accessories, work them into your purchase agreement that way they're covered under the same warranty as the car itself--also, the pricing sheet your dealership will show you is their suggested pricing. Come ready with MSRP for each of these items (Acura website) and negotiate the difference!

The illuminated door sills are especially nice--highly recommend!

Are you saying you can get them UNDER the suggested pricing? There are a few that seem like a good idea, but pricing is higher than I expect to pay for some aftermarket options. All weather mats, all weather cargo, & roof rack have my attention.

Thanks for those tips, great idea, I had assumed the pricing would just be what it is on their site, but now that you say it I will make sure to have the numbers with mer.
Thanks
