Acura TSX Convertible

Hi everybody,

let me introduce myself, my name is André and I'm from Germany.

I've just recognized that someone posted a link to my photoshop gallery. But he complained about not finding any modified Acuras. So, here is one. I hope you like it:

Greetings

TSX does not look good as a coupe/covertible but nice work regardless.

As a convertible, it doesn't look right, but it might look good as a coupe with some minor adjustments.

Nice work regardless!

I don't get how the reinforce the frame. I thought that convertibles had more stabilizing parts on the bottom of the frame to make up for the lack of support at the top.





Couldn't just wait for a 350z convertible to come out? Gotta waste all that money on a mod that came out a year later.

What's with all those convertible 4 doors?

And Convertible Escalade

A lot of those pics are nothing more than photochops of marketing photos.

aside from that, that series of the Lincoln was a gorgeous car, far less chromed up that many of its competitors, crisp clean lines and one of the last car (unitl recently) to feature the so-called suicide doors. I personally think that this line of the Lincoln is one of the few cars that looked equally good in either hardtop or convertible roof bodies.

The slabside and knife edge made it a popular base for stretch limos at the time, and I believe this model began to be the basis for Lincoln taking over the market in stretches.
