New owner: 07 TL-S!

So I sold my RSX Base Premium, because I wanted to get a type-S !!
Well... I did just that!

Awesome..

She's got a big heart!

And welcoming to the family... TILA!
Here are some shots of her on my BB at the dealer, sorry for crap pics.

Here she is at home. I decided to do some maintenance on her: Accessory belt change, Oil change, Tranny Fluid flush, spark plugs (was a bitch! 6 of them).

Here is awesome Tila! This car is one hell of an upgrade from the rsx base, I cant be happier with my decision. Negative or Positive comments are welcome!

P.S. I'm looking for 19'' Work VS-XX, thanks!

Thanks guys! I was contemplating for awhile about 18's or 19's, because since I've previously owned an RSX, 18's were pushing it. But I then tried on my friends 18's Volks, and was not feeling it. So 19's all the way! I have my eyes on the hyperblack Work VS-XX, somebody must have them for sale!

it was tough to get the 3 plugs at the back, because there was barely any room, i didn't want to take out the bar so i just squeezed my way through haha. and yes! after the belt,oil,tranny,filter, and plugs, i felt that the car was better in performance, and runs really smooth.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

Welcome and congrats!

I'm looking forward to seeing what you plans are. You can't go wrong with VS-XX. I hope you plan to slam it before you get those baller status wheels
