Re-post with some of my favorite recent pics & video. Gonna be tough to get rid of this beauty but hopefully someone will buy it and enjoy it. Worst case scenario is that i keep it.....haha, its win-win either way.
Ok so i've decided to post this beauty up for sale. I still love the car so if it doesn't sell quick i won't mind. I don't use it every day so it won't be racking up the miles either. I can't guarantee i wont change my mind and decide not to sell but for the moment this is what i will be doing.
Deciding how much to list it for has been hard too. Based on other prices i have seen and the great condition this car is in (inside and out) and all of the extra goodies going with it (supercharger system will ALL supporting mods, 8.5" Gunmetal A-Specs, 19" Avant Garde wheels) i think $12,500 is a fair price. If you think its a fair price let me know...if you think its a high price keep it to yourself...haha.
I'm going to give it a great detailing and get it ready for some serious pics with my buddy and his DSLR (hopefully this weekend) that i will use for the sale posting (of course i'll post those pics here as well). Until the new pics come in here are some of my favorite recent pics and videos. Enjoy!!

OK, let me try this again. Here is my updated post with the new For Sale thread since my first one was deleted because of incorrect formatting. The new For Sale thread is up and the link below has been updated. Thx!!
Alright my Azine Peeps, i am going to give this a shot. Here is my For Sale Listing on the Black Market....................https://acurazine.com/forums/member-.../#post15463110
I'm still not 100% convinced i want to get rid of the car but once again i rarely use it so here goes. Also recently my Sarona Roof Spoiler was stolen while it was parked at the airport for a week and i haven't even been motivated to work on a replacement. I think i just need to move on. Anyways time will tell and if it doesn't sell then maybe it was divine intervention and i should keep it forever and ever. For the moments here is the listing. I also just did a listing on Autotrader, i will supply that link as well once i have it.
Thx

Someone on my For Sale thread pointed out i didn't have any engine bay pics. I updated there and thought i would update here as well. What a great car.
Funny thing is i'm still giving it upkeep as is i were to keep it....A/C compressor crapped out a couple weeks ago>>>>brand new OEM installed ($900)........radiator had signs of leaking in the near future>>>>new OEM radiator installed before leak actually occurs ($400).......headliner starting to fall>>>>having it professionally replaced this Thursday ($200). Once again, worst case scenario is that i keep it so i gotta keep it fresh & clean.

I would say most people take that position but these cars are special (at least mine has been for me) and i can't see it with any issue. Hell, a couple days ago i received some used "backup" taillight LED boards i just bought.
In the mean time until its sold i still have it and I love it so its money well spent.

Nawww...it would make more sense to just buy it, and sell mine.
BUT, that said, I have too much blood sweat and tears and 40K less miles into mine...would be a dodo move. Plus, I don't want NBP again if I were to ever go on the mission.

Brother...
Wife had 08 silver accord...
Her Dad (worked at dealership) tempts her with deals and all kinds of rebates for a brand new Cadillac SRX. Cool...what colors do they have left of the 2012's? Burgundy, ...Silver, already had...and mother ducking black.
Guess what I got stuck with?!?!

True that, I'm still down about that. In my opinion a shaved Sarona had the ideal angle, size and shape for our cars. That damn spoiler cost me about $500 when it was all said and done. Fuckin pissed!
Your new one looks good, I might get one.

1. If that did happen. I'd PM you the guy's info to go punch him in the mouth.
2. I wouldn't cough up that kinda money for a roof spoiler, although it's gorgeous and I could see why you did.
3. I wouldn't drive 3 hours to avoid a $40 shipping fee!

Sharks dont scare me...I have seen Jaws 1/2/3/4, Deep Blue Sea and similar movies and didnt even flinch...am mad brave like that
but really, gotta love sharks...I like seeing them on the TV, not in real life!
Miami beaches are awesome...when we were down in Key West and went snorkeling, the boat took us an hour into the ocean and there were Dolphins swimming right by the boat...definitely one of the best "awww, wouldja look at that moment" I have had!
Getting drunk on South Beach and having loads of fun at Bal Harbour/Aventura/Sunny Isles Beach...that was a great trip
