the '50 Chevy is going for $3500
it runs with the original 225k mile inline engine.
I briefly looked into an LS swap just now and that project would be too much for me...
I'd have to swap subframes and do a bunch of custom work.

That was their aim as well. They went into a 7-11 parking lot and quickly came back out of the lot and asked me. Yeah I heard its some cheap shit. They'll show you fake websites online saying it's so expensive but it's worth like $50-100 Smh.

This is true. I got my TSX with zero expectations for it to be anything like an AWD/FR car, let alone a car with higher performance. I never expected it to be fun in the sense of spirited driving. Well, to be fair I still find it fun, I love my car. But if I was looking for something (stock) that would wow me on performance, the TSX wouldn't have been on that list.
I love my car as a DD, and I intend on keeping it for many, many years to come. I wouldn't be surprised if I drove it til one of us died. I'd certainly love to have a second car/project solely for performance/hooning/fun. I just need money....

But for an "entry level luxury sedan" it doesn't even do that super amazingly. Sound system, not very good, tech, not good, features, not that many, push button start? good interior build quality? LOL I wish! (so much plastic wtf)
fixed the tech and sound system issues by changing speakers and adding my n7 Headunit so now it's fine though.
Actually my biggest problem with this right now is all the little stupid rattles and random interior problems.. cup holder not closing, not an ashtray sometimes gets stuck, 12v cig lighter door sometimes get stuck, rear deck is rattling, headliner grabhandles are rattling, etc (those are all common problems also which people have posted about here also)
That's what I'm doing today... trying to fix all the rattles and stuff. My ENTIRE rear deck rattles like a mofo and i didn't even change the sub. Guess i'm gonna stuff it full of microfiber towels lol.
dunno how well you can hear the rattles in this vid but the whole damn thing shakes like a mofo

I don't carry more than like 50 bucks lol, who the fuck carries 3k everywhere they go?

I feel that my van corners better than the TSX
VTEC just kicked in, yo!
Try again without the spare tire?
TSX AMG Type //M i-VVT
lul i actually believe that.
My 2g ody handled like a total beast (for what it was) and parents 2010 ody handles fairly well.
I saw a post once where they had done a test, 2g ody vs a few sports cars (some Porsche included). van was stock aside from some decent tires, it beat them all. ODY ftw.
The ody is also faster than the TSX, at least the 4cyl TSX prob not the v6. lololol
EDIT: Ah here it is!

A/C was smelling funky the other day. Pretty new cabin air filter, what else should I check for?
TSX AMG Type //M i-VVT
I forgot why it happens, but somebody told me the fix was to turn the AC off a few minutes before you get to your destination and actually turn the car off. So i started doing that and no AC smells.
Three Wheelin'
God dammit Acura, couldn't even get the A/C system right.
And the funny part is, I usually do turn it off when I'm close to the destination, but the time I didn't was before it started to smell.

I took the wrap off after I looked at it I'm like... how does this even happen LOL
Puddle lights were for Cwins~ #wekfestprep lol. Ran wires through the skirts, up fender and in through door grommet and tapped into the footwell lights. They fade in/out with the interior lights

Because i started to wrap it black, then realized... wait.. I don't even like the way this spoiler looks, why am i doing this?

Just needs some sanding and some paint and it'll be good lol.

I didn't really like it once i put it on there and looked at it, idk why

Drifting
Lol I'm not gonna keep it black. I ain't about that mis-matched panels life. Was just test fitting it on there to get an idea of how it'll look

Carbon fiber wrap

yea no i know its carbon fiber wrap but i meant which trim peices?
Drifting
Oh lol. rawger was talking about my trunk trim
TSX AMG Type //M i-VVT
oh shit totally missed that, now i see..

You have to pull the area surrounding the shifter out to get it fully out. There is a screw in the "This is not an ashtray." You'll have to pull the "cup" part of it out and you'll see the screw. To get the trim surrounding the shifter out, you just pull up on the cup holder door while it's opened.

Went to the a V2Lab meet here in Orlando. Spotted a fellow CU2'er (SirBrooklyn)
Maybe the most WTF find. Also saw a stance CR-V. Lol.
Only two 2nd Gen TSX's I saw. I saw two others driving around, but all stock.
