I am the first and only owner, and I restore cars as a hobby, so consequently this car is VERY well-maintained.

Carbon Gray Pearl
Mileage 35,635
6spd MT
Asking $18,600 obo

I got a crazy deal on a new car which I couldn't resist, so I'm selling this one. As I mentioned above, I restore cars for fun, so I'm religious about car maintenance, and I do it all myself. I change the oil filter with every oil change (and I only use Castrol), I've changed the cabin air filter, I bleed the brakes every two years. I put a new set of Yokohama S-drive tires on in December. They handle better and are quieter (and more expensive) than the original Bridgestones.
This car is my daily driver. I live in Sunnyvale (just north of San Jose) and work in Palo Alto so the car sees highway miles half of the time. I get 25-26mpg, it's rated at 22mpg city and 28 mpg highway, so that matches with my experience. Other than commuting (and dropping my kids off at daycare), that's pretty much it. I had two upgrades installed when I bought it. It has Acura TL rims on it that are a half inch wider (better stance and handle a little better too), and a very subtle, tasteful lip spolier on the trunk. You can see it in the picture. Other than that, it's completely stock.

The only blemishes on this car are a tiny door ding on the passenger side front door (it was so small I couldn't take a picture that would show it, a couple chips on the front bumper, and a few minor scratches on the rims), all normal for a 3 year old car.

The warranty expires in one year and at 50,000 miles, so you can still take it to the dealer under warranty if anything bothers you. I never have because I've never had any problems with it.

The price on Kelley Blue Book (with premuim wheels) is Excellent - $19,455, Good - $18,505, Fair - $17,205. I'm a little negotiable on the price. The car is in pretty spectacular shape.

did you know the warranty is for 4 years or 50,000 miles. good luck on your sale. I also own a 06 6MT tsx but with nav. It is almost 2 1/2 years old with 80,000+problem free miles.

And so it is! haha, for some reason had 3yr/36000 miles stuck in my head. Must've been from my previous Hondas. Thanks!
