New to the Acura world, well kind of. Owned a 03 Accord prior and Loved the power train besides the crap transmission. Wife owns a TSX so sold the accord and bought a TL 6spd. Done a few things already like my DYI intake, blacked out wheels, painted center caps and of course Brake motive rotors and pads all around with fresh caliper paint and decals with a little drop on type-s struts !

My previous Accord (TSX now has my mesh 18's off accord):




My TL:








And my current Domestic toy, SVO swapped 4cyl turbo mustang on E85

Its not your phone lol, the color was 1 of the rarest for the IS300. Was named Cibalo Gold Metallic 1 of 215 ever made in that color and out of those only 10 were 5spd and mine was 5 speed

Not sure on the HP from the stang but have ran a best of 12.29 @ 115mph in the 1/4 on 24lbs of boost
