Hello fellow TSX owners! I just wanted to stop by and introduce myself and my new, to me, TSX. I purchased an 04' 5sp auto w/ navi just about two weeks ago, and I love it. It was originally intended for the significant other, but I've been the one racking up the miles on it since we got it

As of right now the car is completely stock. My intentions are to keep it that way, but with my track record I doubt that will hold true. I'm already getting the itch to add the A-Spec kit + lip spoiler, a mild drop, and some 18s

I'm excited to be a part of this forum, as it seems everyone gets along quite well. I'm new to the TSX deal but I'm hoping to be able to add some helpful insight to this forum. Enough of the rambling, time for some pictures.










And just for fun... My other sweetheart:





97' Techno-Violet E36 BMW M3

Did Carmax really no haggle you?

 

Lol. It's actually a monkey and a koala bear, get it right. Thanks for all the compliments guys.

In terms of the whole car max deal, it actually was a no-haggle type of pricing. Oddly enough they had exactly what I wanted with the navi for about 2.5 to 3 grand less than anyother lot in the area, and half the miles to boot. I wouldn't generally say this about most car places, but I would highly recomend car max to anyone out there. In California they have a 5 day return policy even though there is no "cooling-off period" in the state of California, and they give you 3 days from the point of purchase to switch the lien holder if you can find a better deal on actually financing the car - that's unheard of here in CA.

On another note, does anyone know where I can purchase the OEM a-spec kit? I've searched and I found the complete color matched kit for around $950-980, does this seem about right? I have no idea what the competitive prices are for the tsx, as I haven't been hip to the honda game in a couple of years. Thanks for the help guys.

 

yeah, that price is rite. You could try to search for a group buy or make one yourself. Price should be around $850 for group buys.
