1. Price: $19,000 obo (this was the exact offer I had on the car a few months ago, but wasn't prepared to sell at the time)
2. Mileage: 78,8xx
3. Color, Transmission-auto or manual, Navi? Nighthawk Black Pearl, Automatic, no-navigation but I would consider throwing in my Garmin Nuvi 255w
4. Reason for selling: I don't need to sell as this is the perfect daily driver in my opinion, but I've been lusting after an s2k build for too long
5. Location: Tampa Bay, FL (willing to meet half-way to show/test drive to all serious buyers)
6. Pictures:
7. Are you the first owner? First and only owner
8. Title information: I own the car, free and clear
9. VIN: will only be given out to serious buyers
10.

I take extremely good care of my highway sled ... nitrogen in the tires and even a $400+ professional exterior detail

Modifications: custom lht performance 4-1 ceramic coated header, magnaflow/carsound hi flow cat, custom lht performance dual aluminum exhaust with magnaflow resonators, hondata reflash and gasket, p2r throttle body spacers and gaskets, injen cai w/ hydroshield, hks circle earth grounding kit, comptech titanium strut tower bar, ksport kontrol pro dampers (custom springed 10/6, F/R), progress rsb, neuspeed fsb, ingalls rear camber kit, rotora 4pot front bbk, rotora s/d rotors rear, hawk hp pads rear, goodridge stainless steel lines rear, rear calipers painted black, enkei racing series gtc01 (18x8" 48mm offset), kuhmo ecsta asx performance tires (225-40-18), buddy club black lug nuts, supercomputer pedal set, corbeau lg1 seats in black microsuede, custom stitched alcantara wrapped oem steering wheel, oem lip kit, genuine mugen air spoiler, oem-ish fogs, jdm red valve cover w/ aftermarket oil cap, throttle body bypass mod, titan battery, 35% all 4 windows and front windshield strip, pulstar plugs, oem upgraded trunk springs for use with spoiler, viper alarm w/ windows-up and trunk modules, kenwood excelon component set front, rockford fosgate speakers in rear doors and rear deck, password jdm magnetic drain bolt (oil and tranny)
* all items in blue were installed w/in the last 4 months
* i also have a secret modification that i've formally stated not to divulge (per well-known owner of Honda tuning company) and only will let serious buyers in on
* i built this car as the ultimate daily driver and it runs and has always run without a hitch ... all highway miles =)
* it has been maintained to the utmost and almost anyone in tampa, charlotte, and the tsx sub-forms can concur
* josh at excelerate performance (forum vendor) and john at lht performance can vouch for my build with all new parts and their respective quality
*couple very minor cosmetic issues: small scratches on front bumper and one by the shifter

Oh man, it's finally going down 
.
I've worked on and driven this car (before the items in blue), and it drives great and is as clean inside and out as it can be. I saw it last weekend in its current state, and it looks amazing; it's perfect. I'm also aware of the secret mod, and I can assure you, you won't be disappointed if you pick up this car.
Good luck with the sale, Vinny.

Just Win Baby
Still got the car?
Nice TSX man, and probably one of the sweetest ones I have seen. I should've seen it in person when I was in Orlando a couple of weeks ago. I haven't been on Azine lately.
Nice engine bay! Do you use any special products to help keep everything in there showroom clean?
Where did you get the chrome A pedal pad covers?

the pedals are from a forum vender, supercomputer
i really don't use anything special to keep the car clean, it's all about frequently cleaning a black car that keeps it looking good! i do a quick wash once a week and a quick wax about every 10 days
if you're ever in fl again, pm me =)

Did you ever get this dynoed? My prayers go out to you and your family for your ill father on this fathers day.
gorgeous car, tastefully modded indeed. i wonder what the secret mod is? it must be something that resides in the trunk or cabin..i'm guessing it's probably ICE.

she's dyno'd at a conservatively just over 200whp (redline set at 7600 rpm but we shut down at 7100) and was still making power!
secret mod is performance related!!!!!!!!!!
