You're right it is! And, yes sir I am! What about you!?!

I convinced my friend that has the 2013 Accord Sport to go.. I hope he's welcome.

 

I am so ready. I've never planned a meet like this before. Not that it was difficult or anything, I just hope a lot of people show. I've been trying to meet up with the DFW guys for a year.

Of course he's welcome. Plus since he's a Honda so he is family.

 

You should plan a northeast meet for us...just saying.

Also, ILX and TSX guys are the coolest on the site...just saying.

Finally, did anyone see the reviews on the RLX...people aren't really fond of the pricing.

 

Only 2 more days!
I am excited too that the one guy is bringing out a Lotus.. that will be cool. Haha

You guys should just drive to Texas!
By ILX and TSX guys are the coolest on the site he means I AM THE COOLEST ON THIS SITE.. just saying :gheylaugh:

I havent looked into the RLX really.. just because if I am spending that kinda money it's on a 2014 Vette.. because I dont need all that space lol

 

i remember hosting meets back in 2006-2008 for tri-state area acuras.. those were some fun times. meets have been weak lately since I switched up to subarus and stopped posting on here for a while.

 

Well come back...we're friendly people...well, actually I do bite from time to time.

 

i did come back haha
i got myself the ILX! hard to leave Acura because of its value for refinement with added driving pleasure and still be able to drive them in inclement weather. can't find another ~30-50k car with a touch of quality, driving feel that comes in the proper gear box.

 

You know what guys...as an owner of a TL and an RDX, I am not that bad of a person and can be cool to hang out with too you know

 

I don't doubt it, I'm just teasing because everyone says that the 3g tl guys muck up the site.

 

Come here.. let's hug it out. :ghey:

 

 

Opboarding and me talkin; reppin' overpriced Civics at the Dallas meet!

More cars came later and I am the hobo on the right.

 

We are so cool

 

Haha, awesome! Where can I see more pics from this meet? I haven't taken my ILX to one yet. Soon, I hope. Way to represent.

 

Here so far,

It was really fun!
That one Justin took with the beak of my Car is too legit!

 

Wayy to rep the ilx crew. I wish you guys invited a 2012 civic owner so people can see the vast disparity between the two cars.

 

Lol vast disparity??? Dont be silly, Speed.. it's just a dressed up Civic.. it looks very similar.. DUH

 

sandpaper you have a g37x? wtf?

 

ball so hard????

 

how many people came to the meat?

 

9 cars. 10 if you count the random 2g tsx that parked with us while we were inside.

 

Not bad for a meet in the middle of winter...oh wait, there's no such thing as winter in Texas...i hate you guys

 

Haha, I experienced that a few weeks ago when some friends and I took our cars on a road trip to Sedona, Arizona. This is my buddy Woody's '12 Civic Si.

 

The ilx, with the aero kit, looks way sexier...that alone makes it worth it.

 

REALLY BRO?? they're like indentical!!... I mean just look at it they barely changed anything.. DERP

 

one other advantage the ilx has over the civic is the hill start assist feature...just found that out today

 

Yes you are correct and it is another feature it has over the TSX. I forgot about that.

 

Did anyone notice this guy's grill:



I think it looks pretty sweet!

 

Not the biggest fan of Plastidip myself

 

kinda looks like the pre-mmc 8th gen civics

 

likewise, but it is interesting...and I wouldn't say it's bad looking.

 

Don't get me wrong it does look really cool, just like the endurance racers with their dark grey grilles.. I would buy the endurance racer's grill if I could.. I just don't like the idea of plastidip on my car, it looks good at a distance but obviously doesnt hold up like a good clear coat with some wax.

 

Only reason I can't go body color on the damn grill.

 

I was thinking about Vinyl wrapping my grill..

Does the bumper have to come off to get the grill off? Thats what it looks like when I was looking more into it.. Not enough clearance to get to the screws on the bottom of the grill, and those engine compartment covers are annoying to pull on and off every time I want to take a look at something. Stupid new cars.

 

So.. Here's a thought.

We lower out car, the rear view camera lines are no longer correct?

 

^isnt it based off distance?

i'm not familiar with the ILX and its back up camera/sensor...does it beep as well?

and Trent, I heard that Ryan got a little test drive in the ILX!
did he stall?

 

It is based off of distance.. and I was thinking if the camera is lower (with the car obviously) and it's angled to show distance it would be off when lowered. Cause I don't think it actually detects how far stuff is it just has these little yellow lines to represent 3(ft?) each. It does not beep though.

Ryan did get to drive it, he didn't stall! He seemed kind of nervous being that he hadn't driven stick in a while and I am sure driving someone you barely know's car can be a bit nerve racking. I told him to let her rip, he babied her lol!

 

oh, so my thinking of the backup sensors would not apply here.
I think you're onto something, changing the angle of the camera.

yeah, I'm always nervous and careful when some one says "sure you can drive my car!"
the day before I met you; I had the chance to drive my friends CTS-V.
I pushed the clutch in and was about to release but realized we were in a parking lot...and fort worth traffic sucks with all the construction...
needless to say; I did not get to drive the CTS-V.

 

I wonder if there is a way to turn it, like the headlights maybe an adjustment in the trunk or something? I have never actually looked at the camera itself.

BUT YOU DID GET TO SIT IN IT!
CTS-Vs are like the Jesus of V8 sedans..
