Out with the 3G in with 4G

Out with the old ( I miss this car sooooo much =(, personally I prefer the 3G so much more, I'd keep it instead if it wasn't for all the hit and run damage on the car, Vancouver drivers are absolutely retarded. )


In with the new (But I do love the AWD on this)

congrats. i switched from a 3g too. the sh works great, u'll like it more n more! haha
i used to be fully pro 3g looks, but my awdsh has grown on me.
the back looks pretty nice, i like it as much as the 3g's butt. the front grill is the only part that's harder on the eyes lol.

4G > 3G

3 years ago, EVERYBODY on AcuraZine hated the 4G... i would assume that at least 50% of those people have changed their opinion.

The car is superior in every single way, except the 3G Type-S is a little faster...other than that, 4G rules!

Yeah I agree, but there was so much memories with the 3G-S, and I like the styling of the 3G alot more. Personal preference I guess, I don't hate this car, in fact I love it! I just haven't found the love for this as much as I had for my 3G-S

I guess the same goes for the new 2011+ STI Sedan eh?

Haha thanks for the compliments both of you! Will do when I get time and find the right stance! I just took these two shots randomly when my buddy and I came out of the theatres from watching "In Time" with our ladies. No one except him were parked beside me so I decided to snap a few shots and also to show my LED plate lights.

Nice 3G, wasn't my cup of tea...even though with the Type-S treatment it had much more appeal to me. Congrats on the 4G!

Yeah, the 3G styling definitely looks more sporty. Wait, you mean the 3G wasn't your cup of tea or MY 3g?! LOL

Thanks dude, even though I've had it for 4 months now and I finally posted it on Azine =P
Yeah I'm from Vancouver! Yeah, the chances of us running into each other won't be slim! Vancouver is small! Hahaha, but my car is stock so I look like every other 3G on the streets other than I disabled my parking lights and 6000k HID and white fogs.

My buddy imported alot of HID kids and bulbs from Philips to no name brands, so I grabbed one for myself. If you're interested let me know, pm me I'll give you details.

Congrats - beautiful car! I felt the same way at first when going from 3g to 4g but after a years ownership the 4g has really grown on me. I know it will for you too. It is a superior car in every way. Enjoy!

Congrats, the 3G was nice, but you definitely got your hands on a nice 4G in return.

Its funny that you only have front mud guards and not rear mud guards. Did you purchase the front? Or came with the car already.

Thanks guys! Yes I do love this 4G, especially the way it handles in the wet. It's just... . I will take more shots of the car when I get the time, but it's so stock I don't feel like photoshooting it.

I got these set off my friend's inventory, they're bright as hell though, 5 LED's on each bulb.

The fronts came with the car, I actually want to take them off but I've been too lazy and there's a clip that keeps the mudguard on other than the screws that has been pissing me off.
