with all the deals going sour for the past couple months, i'm starting to think that maybe i shouldn't sell the tsx. i'm rather confused now since i've had my heart set on a s2k (for over a year now, actually).

i'm starting to wonder if i should continue to mod the tsx! but what to do next -- wheels, paint, aero, suspension, more performance (though i doubt that since i'm getting rather sick of the auto)?

Vinny how are you going to leave the driver's seat of the tsx?

This is a TSX enthusiast forum.

If you don't want to be enthusiastic about your TSX, then just leave.

I'll just keep posting in this thread to make it even longer.

This side of the forum needs more action anyways.

I wonder how many posts i can make before you respond to me.

hey acurazine,

i've just had another buyer backout, at least this time he told me he bit off me than he could chew =(.

anyways, if you know of anyone who might consider trading their s2000 for my tsx, please let me know.

thanks,
vinny

u r correct, the curse has finally been lifted!

i'll still be hanging around the acurazine community as i've established a few friendships through this site. i'll miss the tsx (my first completed project) but am excited at the new possibilities.

Ho ho holy shit, that's gorgeous. I fired up my home PC after the gym specifically to look at your new ride man.

Initial reaction: if you're not planning on a BBK, paint those brake calipers gloss black ASAP. They pop out hard behind those gorgeous CE28N's. Black will hide them nicely and streamline the car's profile.

Aside from that... there's not a damn thing I'd do aesthetically. I love it. Classic car already... congrats and enjoy!
