Hey there Acurazine. It's time for me to move on from the RL to another daily driver that is hopefully more practical. I've used the RL as both a showcar and DD and it's time to build the NA1 finally, so my search for a nice TSX Sport Wagon for the DD begins. Here is copy/paste post from my local Craigslist about the RL including the list of modifications done to the car:

I purchased this Acura in December of 2014 with ~65k miles on it and used it for my short, daily commute to school (round trip 2 miles on days I had class). The car would also be used for errands and daily driving, however I never ventured into the city often with the car since I've seen what cars in the city's bumpers look like and I don't want to have to deal with dings and dents every time I go up.

The car was quickly and professionally modified with coilovers, wheels, tires, and brakes at 67k miles. It stayed like this for a year until I installed air suspension through #becausebags/Sprint Autoworks in San Jose, CA (at the time, Campbell, CA) with roughly 75k on the odometer. Since then, 100% custom Rotiform wheels have been made for the car, upgraded rotors and pads, as well as new tires have been installed on the vehicle. Roughly 1k miles ago I had the front bags switched from double bellows to sleeve bags, so the front setup is practically new.

I used this car primarily as a daily driver once I purchased it, however it transitioned into a show car I seldom drove once I began modifying it. Here is a comprehensive list of all the modifications I've done to the car and the estimated retail cost.

Misc.:

Total Retail Value of Aftermarket Parts: $22,800. This figure does not include the tax or labor I also had to pay for these modifications to be done. I "THINK" that wraps up the majority of the things of I've done to the car, however I'm sure I've missed a few things here and there. As you can see, given the KBB value of the car and the amount of additional value in aftermarket parts, this is a stellar deal and I've priced it to sell.

Condition Disclosure:
- Front right fender needs PDR work as it was buckled.
- Rear bumper tabs have been pushed out because the wheels' stance is too wide when aired out
- Front bumper could use a repray from chips and mounting tabs being worn out from when I was on coilovers
- Interior glovebox leather and armrest needs some TLC

At the time of this posting, 6/23/16, there are two interested parties in the car as-is, however I've decided to make posts on CL and AZine to increase my exposure in hopes of selling the car quickly.
