2012 tsx-tech!

Hey guys, I am new to the forum! I recently sold my 06 Acura Rsx-S and went straight to the dealership to grab a 2012 Acura Tsx with Technology Package!! Its graphite luster metallic! I am in love with this car, huge difference from all my older rsx-s, integras, and civics! I really loved my
Rsx-s but its time for a change. I wanted to get out the import game, but still own a Acura or honda. Here are some pictures! Sorry its Iphone pics..

I probably wont do anything much to it but tints, hid top and bottom, window visors, and i dont know yet. Maybe a drop later on but I really dont wanna lose the comfort.

Here is my first integraa..


then my rsx-s <3333 but I sold it to a friend of mine!




Then here is the new tsx! Bought with 2 miles from the dealership!





The detailer guy at Acura cleaning my car for me because it was brand new, with the plastic cover all over the interior and exterior.

Love the Teg + Prelude wheels. Love the RSX (had one and miss it dearly) -- but your TSX is very classy! nice ride!

Thanks man, hahah. The teggy was my second car. I had a civic eg hatchback before that with a built gsr, but got totaled.. but i loved that teggy, all it needed was a paint job. The rsx-s was great but my girlfriend just got tired of the noise and handling cause she couldnt take it! -__- lol
But i love the tsx now! Very nice and smooth. Ill take some better picture tomorrow on a real camera cause the iphone camera makes it look suck!

i thought those were blades? Integra wheels?

Either way nice cars, you'll love the Tsx comfort!
I had a 98 fully Converted 2000 Ek coupe B20V High Comp
Built Gsr head Suspension'd out. Fun little Auto X car!
Enjoy your stay here!!

The wheels on the Integra are the GSR Blades. The wheels on the RSX look to be MB Weapon Wheels also stamped as Final Speed Erasers.

New TSX looks clean!

Edit! They may have come on the Prelude in Canada though...idk?

Welcome. I've never really paid attention to the RSX interior, but that door sure resembles the TSX one. Is that what they call lineage?

I hear you! My RSX was killing me -- just noisy rough and loud. Fun to drive, but not everyday

Yeah the rsx-s is nice to ride. Lot of fun! Just rough and harsh cause I had racing coilovers and all that stuff in it. As I'm typing this right now, I am getting my
Tints done waiting in the room! 20% front and rear.
