What a noob.

 

what a casual, as @Majofo would call it

 

Put some miles on the TSX. Actually been doing so a lot lately. Taken it out almost every weekend for at least an hour cruise during this stuff. Most miles it has seen in a long time.

Post these in the recent shots thread a while back but figured repost them here to keep track of them.





Some new shots this weekend while visiting my sister to check out her new house.




That flush stance

 

What a hot ride...

Geebus this is hotness.

 

Love how CGP looks like a mirror in the sun!

 

MM just looks for one of our "newest posts" to find where to go post some random ass impertinent shit.

 

Yeah pretty much.

Although, I do have to say it has been one of the best-kept paint jobs I have had. It shines better than any car I have ever owned. That said the entire car has for the most part been repainted now at one point or another.

 

Shhhh...
that can be our secret.
At least you're getting blowpaintjobs!!!!

 

Makes sense. Just saying I noticed my Accord shines kinda like your TSX. Our RDX is the same color as well and it just never looked that good... Probably because it waa street parked in the city for 15 years now. Never noticed how nice this color is until now. Looks good with the Cabon Fiber hood!

Is this color easy to color match?

 

your accord will never shine like his tsx

 

I don't care. It's cheaper on gas.

 

^ Only by the price/gal at the pump, as both the AT & MT TSX get slightly better MPG than the AT V6 Accord.

 

Yeah exactly

 

And, IMO, the 1G TSX looks far better than most Accord generations (though I'm a bit partial to the CB7).

 

TSX is hot.

 

Yeah but that $10-15 extra a tank for premium. Ouch. Filled the Accord for $20 the other day. RDX was $35.

 

Average price difference between 87 and 93 = 35 cents/gallon = $5.95 difference if filling from bone dry, as both the TSX and Accord have 17.1 gallon tanks.

 

I wish it was $0.35/gal difference.

87 > 93 gap here is more like $0.80/gal. Paid $2.159 for 93 Saturday. 87 at the HEB near my house was $1.309 yesterday.

 

Great build. Kudos for sticking with it through the ups and downs.

 

Damn, you'd think gas would be less expensive in oil field land

I paid $1.65 yesterday. Regular was $1.29. I usually see a 30 to 45 cent difference (though it typically hovers closer to 35-40 cents.

 

93 is a bit cheaper at the HEB by the house, but whatever is different between their 93 & the Exxon where I typically fill up, I get a slightly rougher idle on the HEB fuel. Their 87 works great in the Flex, but the C doesn't like their 93.

 

From what I have been told this color is a pain to match due to having to mix the amount of pearl and metallic in it manually each time. I have had 3 different shops over the life of the car paint different parts. The last shop I ever used is what has painted everything now for me. They have managed to do a fantastic job matching the color each time and blending it as well if needed into other panels. Thankfully I have not needed anything repainted in a long time as they are back in PA where I am from.

I do need a bumper respray on my other bumper I have at some point and I am thinking of taking it back to PA to have them do it.

 

Man it has been a while since I have seen an 87 vs 93 debate. I feel like we are back in the days of cl.acuzazine, tl.acurazine.com, and tsx.acurazine.com.

 

Looks great as always, Jason!

 

Oh ok. Cool then. Planning on having the RDX completely repainted in the next couple of years. It looks like crap.

Hopefully you'll be in good shape as far as paint goes. Is this your daily?

 

A full quality respray is above your pay grade
and trust me, don't get a shitty single stage urethane job for $400.
I'm not only the president, but also a member.

93 Octane is life.

 

I remember one member got a "decent" respray fir like $1100. I need to do something at some point.

 

or not, residual value isn't high at that mileage and the accord is your dream car anyway

 

$1100 paint job still isn't in the realm of a good paint job. Pretty much these days you can't get a full respray for less than $3500.

 

Not about residual value. I'm never gonna sell it. In the event if one had to go it would be the Accord.

One of my coworkers just had his 1995-ish Silverado repainted. It looks good. Not perfect, but good. May need to ask him how much it ran him.

 

Oh to be young and naive again...

 

 

 

My Mom used to stop me from eating glue.
Poor MM

 

"Used to" as in no one's stopping you now?

 

LOL...fuck no, whatever, i do what I want!
