I don't think I've ever seen one in red before. It looks great!

Thanks. I did buy from Acura of Bellevue and Peter was our salesman. We actually bought it last Nov 04 but I finally got around to taking some pictures this morning when at a friends home. I wish the TSX had bluetooth phone capabilities as well as the memory setup. I love these two features in the MDX. Plus the MDX has a better Navi screen.

I've heard good things about peter. We bought both of ours from Randy and our next one will probably be through him. That is if I go with a TL or RL next. I really want an E46 M3 so we'll see.

We have the same taste. I definitely want an M3 as well but my wife and I want to get a bigger home in the near future.

are those rims smaller? Are you looking for weight savings? Tracking the MDX eh? hehe

I think it looks good but a tad bit to small....18 would be nice. Are those 16 or 17?

They are 17x7 40+ offset 5x114.3 (BSA model 333). They weight about 20lbs each. Gotta love eBay again since it cost me only 232.50 + shipping for all four rims.

I thought about 18s but I didn't want to buy another set of tires. Plus the TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) had to be removed from the OEM stock rims anyways so rather than buying 18in tires and another TPMS system I opted to swap the rims and keep the TPMS system I already had since they had to dismount the rims anyways.
