I just bought a 2012 tech TSX

Just like the title states, I just bought this car. I am currently stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

I bought this car off of a private owner for $20K.
It had around 28K miles on it, clean title, 1 owner, it looks practically brand new.

One thing I dislike about this vehicle is the knob controls for the navi, other than that its great. The only modifications that I have done are changing the interior lights to led. I am currently looking at 19" directional vossen rims.

So tell me what you guys think? Any suggestions on what i should do to this car? etc..









i love california




passenger in my own vehicle, sitting in the back seat.

Cold air intake,tein ss lowering springs 1.6 front and 1.4 back, 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear that will give it a cool look but this just my opinion.������

Car looks pretty clean. Nice score. Those tails are smoked/tinted; not sure what your / the local fuzz's thoughts on that are. I like the look of a darker light on a black car like that, but I'm not a fan of the diminished light output. If it were me, I'd remove it. But it's not me, so...

Nice car - but - the driver's seat needs a bit of TLC. Go online and buy a bottle of LeatherMaster "strong cleaner" and the matching conditioner. That'll make your seat look like new again, clean up the creases and get rid of that shiny look.

I appreciate all of your input! I will be looking into having a cold air intake. I do plan on making the car "vip." I actually like the tinted tail lights, but the diminished light output somewhat bothers me. Eventually I will remove the tint.

The interior especially the drivers seat needs some tlc, i will go ahead and check out the product CEB.

For the non-leather bits you'll want to use Aerospace 303 (possibly diluted 50/50 with tap water). 303 will protect without leaving a greasy, squeaky, filmy mess like most other products. It'll just look clean.
