Fuck people who take pictures at that angle. It hurts my neck and makes you look like a twat.

iCrap

Where? I don't see their cars here
https://www.facebook.com/CU2SQUAD/photos_stream

Also that's the wrong page (sorta) if you want to see all the idiotic discussions and super rice shit you gotta join their closed Cu2 Squad group

oh no...



lol

VR1

My bad, there's another White CU2 with wheels that look similar to Gary's VMRs.

Semen's car is on there though:

Along with a bunch of pics he's taken.


I remember that I tried to join their closed group awhile ago with a made up acount since i don't have FB.. They would't accept me tho lol.



We should have a meat when Ryan is here. Still haven't been to one

iCrap

lolol "semen"

I left and rejoined too many times, they won't let me back in now. lol.

ssjoeboe9

Ryan I have never heard you speak like this before, but I can tell you I like it!

opboarding

I was in a speak my mind mood earlier. I've been working 15 hour days this week and starting to get a bit loopy.

ssjoeboe9

You would be surprised at how many people don't like to be called twat! It's quite enjoyable to see their faces actually

urbanstereo

i never had a TSB for my old accord so i dunno haha
i found them. now to ask the dealer to schedule.

i assume this is free?

xtcnrice

free under warranty, but the dealer can be a real jerk about honouring it for you, depending on the TSB

xtcnrice

Color of panels is also wrong...

I was expecting to see wavy bacon fenders.

xtcnrice

skirts are ugly as hell and not symmetrical; rear bumper is lumpy af, especially the driver side; etc.
everything looks like playdoh tbh.

xtcnrice

ruined a perfectly good modulo kit that could've been mine

iCrap

That's the one! so lumpy. and the colors dont match.

I wonder how much that guy spent on ruining his car..

xtcnrice

He said on his IG he spent 40k on his car lol, but this includes bbk, wheels, headlights, etc. Not sure if this figure includes the cost of his car as well... cuz I definitely would NOT want to pay 40k for this piece of playdoh

justnspace

iTrader: (1)

bwhhahhahahah 40k for that!?
fuck that

iCrap

loloolol 40k... so he has like a 60-70k TSX now? wtf! I would have just bought a new corvette stingray or used gtr for that money.

xtcnrice

LOL iCrap, not too sure. The $40k could very well include the cost of the car as well. But still, that's a new STI right there!

edit:
On that note, the new STI looks way better in person actually. It's growing on me, and I take back what I said about them looking much uglier than the previous gen. I'd love to have one right now... especially after that mild snow storm we just had last night

MC MiYoung3269

Lol, those photo's were probably from when I was still in the group. Says they're from January

ssjoeboe9

Im still in the group cause there are two other people with superchargers that I have been trying to recruit and come over here to Azine and share knowledge.

opboarding

I've spent 40k total on my tsx too...

iCrap

Yeah but i think that guy spent 40k + the original car price

yeah it does actually look pretty nice.

opboarding

Oh, you think the 40k was just the mods? If so that is insane. I thought you meant the 60k-70k was milage, not dollars. I guess if he didn't do the bodywork himself and paid $100/hr for someone to sculpt/fiberglass/paint it could have cost 10k.

2016 Acura ILX Refreshed at Los Angeles Auto Show

Justin was right, 8DCT, no 6MT. Also, all models come with the 2.4L. Optional A-Spec





edit:
also, that black plastic cover over the valve cover looks not too shabby imo. Looks better than ours.. probably because we have that ugly cover over the intake valves.



and is it just me or is the exhaust manifold (downpipe) coming out the other side compared to our cars?

Jaheri_cbp

holy bondo batman!!

xtcnrice

k24z7 vs our k24z3 I suppose

ssjoeboe9

Do you guys like it?

justnspace

iTrader: (1)

well, it was the only logical thing to do.

VR1

Double post.

VR1

I think its decent. Maybe a reincarnation of the 1G TSX? I was hoping for a Type S tho with all their hyping up of performance.

MC MiYoung3269

Joe did you know what it looked like/specs before today? How much on the inside are you?

I really like it. I like the new grille and the headlights are super sexy. I'm not very opinionated on the engine/transmission and think it's fine.

justnspace

this new ILX is better than the TLX.

if I was in the market today; the '16 ILX would get a consideration

xtcnrice

Shame on Acura for marketing performance the way they did. All this "hype" just to take the TLX tranny, and have the K24 across all trims is lame. They marketed it in a way that implied a leap forward in NUMBERS that people are used to. Horsepower figure, torque, displacement (which I doubt since the car is relatively small anyhow--so maybe factory turbo instead). Not new tranny! Sure the 8 DCT is a lot faster than the 5AT and technically also 6MT. But they ditched the 6MT, which is what many performance-minded individuals would seek when purchasing a car.

But this is today's Acura, so you can't really expect much. I just think the least they could've done (on top of what they actually did) was keep 6MT as an option, because people who are interested in performance are likely to be interested in a manual transmission. Plus anyone who knows, Honda's 6MTs are fantastic.

cu2wagon

Thank goodness they got rid of the 6MT. That was the only thing holding it back from being a perfect car!

Way to go Acura, you nailed it!

/sarcasm

iCrap

No surprises at all on that new ILX

This bit is my favorite
Wow! now it's as fast as an old car from '04!

Oh yeah and..


Yeah pretty sure its JUST mods which would insane.

It looks way better than the 1g ILX

VR1

So apparently my friend's 2006 2.4l Acura TSX has 4 more hp then my 2013 2.4l does?

Lol dafuk kind of logic is this Acura? Atleast give us the other 4 more hp so we can be even, if your not going to give us more.
Why would you give the heavier car less power?

if i got the first series of ILX's i would be mad
