So i moved on...to an 08 TSX

Its a lil dirty but I did some driving this morning and all I have are pics from my phone, hope that'll do. Its a 2008 TSX, Black on black Oh and the navigation and xm radio is pretty sickk.

I can't get away from black cars..once you go black you never go back.




oh and please no comments about the grille..i like it and plan on changing it up if ronjon comes up with a new grille for it.

^i thought there was something up with why you didn't say anything, i'm suprised no one else remembered, and i can't believe that switchfootvz still thought zero actually bought a tsx, even after i just explained it in my post before with a quote, no one reads posts anymore

You guys all suck. and yeah, gnate, dont go to any section because you'll find a lot of kids younger then you with sick cars. and heres the pics that I can still see, because its my verizon site, but you guys cant. my bad.

oh and btw, my TSX is underneath the deck right now...and my tint was never fixed on the cl. although it still has a scratch on it.

It rides pretty well actually. And accelerates quite nicely, my only complaint is the suspension seems stiffer then my stock and my new suspension. You feel a lottta bumps, but other than that, its pretty nice. The reverse cam and navi is a pretty sweet setup. as well as the auto dimmer on the mirror for all those bright lights. oh and the switchblade key is fun. haha

and chris, i thought the same thing. I didnt really like it much either when I saw the tsx with those grille's but as I was walking away from it, as it sat in the dark, it looked pretty damn mean. Cause just that grille was really shining.

It is the 'new one', they facelifted it in 08 and showed it off in New York I think. Both 08 and 09 fall under the Second generation. Although I think they still produced 08's with the old look.

I dont know what the fuck your problem is, but you've been trying to prove me wrong, and this isnt the first thread. grow up.

I could have sworn the dude said it was an 08 TSX, and I was like, 'I didnt know they facelifted the 08, i thought it was the 09' and all he said was "Well how about that" like one of those..i dont know the answer so ill blow it off responses. so the guy at the dealership led me in the wrong direction. But they did release it in 08, so I wasnt completely off. But whatever, the 09 uses a base engine thats pretty much the same as the 09.

note: I just checked and the second gen is considered as 08+. Atleast on wikipedia it is

^in this case it's a silly thing to quibble over, i don't know if you're right or wrong, and it obviously doesn't matter -- but the lesson is an important one: never, ever, assume anything you're told at a dealership is fact.

this, I know. Poor judgement on this one, and I didnt really care to research it too much. All i knew was that I had a new car that I could play with for a couple days.

^chill out man, i was just letting you know that it's an 09, the smiley face was the sarcastic one, maybe i shoulda put red text in there too, but i didn't think i needed it. i just know it's an 09 tsx cuz my brother owns an 08 and it's still the old style. And i don't know what growing up has to do with me telling you it's an 09 and not an 08.
