I didn't see a post about this but Comptech is selling their '05 TL with all their goodies.

2005 COMPTECH ACURA TL

 

That must be their test car. yikes. wouldnt want that!

 

If they're selling their test car, I guess that means they aren't going to be fixing the surging issue with the supercharger... that's too bad...

 

maybe if they would go down a little in price........it is an interesting car to say the least

 

Am I right to say this car has like 8,000$ in performance parts not counting the aspec

 

Huh, a NBP body kit on an AM with the doors partially painted...NBP mirrors...NBP spoiler...blacked out headlight housings...interesting. I like the wheels, too. The one thing that strikes me as odd, though, is how they got the drop to be even...I have yet to see a TL on CT springs that looks as evenly dropped as that one.

Edit: and it looks like over $8k in CT parts, alone...plus the wheels.

 

hm, looks like the off-color (as usual) AM body kit on an AM car.. am i missing something?

 

another auto with a supercharger. .. it would be more appealing if it was a 6mt

 

I think the drop is even cause they have to Koni Shock which have the Seat adjustment for the spring. that makes it easier to adjust height in front which is normally higher. Also I would not purchase this car cause think about how much abuse it took during the R&D process of the Charger. damn,it sucks for the buyer of that one!

 

I don't see any NBP parts..........am I missing something?

 

Per CT's list prices, the CT parts are worth $9,522.

zeezz - look more closely, the panels are actually black and the lower portion of door is painted black, as are the mirrors and interior of the headlight housings (to a lesser degree than most here do...to keep reflectivity, I guess )

 

See that line along the bottom of the door? I thought it was off at first too...off the CT page, click on the pic and then click it again to enlarge it...it's black.

 

thats a reflection. That car is COMPLETELY AM.

 

Sorry chill dog your seeing a reflection

 

Sorry, still not buying it...I've never seen an AM with that much color difference in the body kit...if it is all AM, that is the absolute WORST color matching I have seen on any TL ever.

 

LOL, you are seeing reflection, chill_dog. The car is definitely AM with stock headlights. You might want to get new glasses. j/k

 

next time im in sac ill swing by and take a picture of the car

 

I thought it was odd they would crack the headlights, but it seemed like there was less of the reflective part in there than on mine

 

Look at the bottom of the doors, it's off in color but matches the color and lines up with the kit...it's suppose to be like that.

 

I think its your work screen rez.

 

I'll be making a trip to Comptech in a few days and let you know how it looks in person... and maybe take a few pics too.

 

Dude, why are you making up excuses for him? Chill, get off the chronic man. J/k

 

It is interesting that they are selling their test vehicle while this surging is still going on? I mean wtf....BAILING?

 

Hey...I did say it was the rez didnt I! And we know where that rez came from too! He should always bong it to avoid this from happening ... although that would be harder for him to hide in the work bathroom behind the toilet! He is the dude...he could pull it off somehow! lol j/k man

 

Im confused...the colours look normal to me.

Normal for acura = horrible paint matching for the a-spec kits

 

READ^.They're going for a two tone look....yes I qouted myself...

 

I guess I am very lucky that my A-spec body AM paint match is perfect. I can't detect a difference at all.

 

Has anyone called Comptech lately to see if the surging issue has been resolved? There may be an ACM update waiting...

 

pretty good lookin car and the price is petty good to but, I would not get a demo from the acura dealer and definitly not a test car from comptech

 

I was at Comptech last Saturday and had a chance to see their TL that was up for sale. The body fit had a much closer color match than in the photos. But it's a mute point... car was sold to someone in FL.

Also, it looks like Comptech may have a fix for the SC surging issue and that more WHP may be possible on the standard SC kit. Stay tuned!!

 

I hope a fix is coming.

 

I couldn't resist...

A "mute" point is would be a point that doesn't make any noise (like the mute button on your TV remote)

I think you were referring to a "moot" point

 

lol...

Actually, I had it right... I silenced the naysayers...

 

Looks like you did at that...
