Bought this car 2 years ago at 114,000 miles. Since Than i have replaced the stock clutch and shifter cable , serpentine belt,  Breaks &tires , Coil over adjustable  Suspension , Camber Kit , xxr 527 17 9.75 gold ( plasti dip black) 

Its been my daily driver and has been a fun quick car for the past 2 years. If you notice the white  small bits of plasti dip that i didnt finish cleaning of----will come off with a nice wash. 

The Engine

The car has been running great since we bought it. Ive replaced all require maintenance for the 150,000 mile mark. Oil Changes every 3,000 miles. New Coil Packs and spark Plugs about 5,000 miles ago. The TPS sensor was replaced with a after market replacement . Some times the After Market Replacement gives response issues which cause the car acceleration to lag a for millisecond. After contacting Acura it seems a replacement throttle body with a Acura TPS would fix the issue. A acura Throttle body replacement  will be included with the car. 

Interior 
both front seats show wear , rips in butt of seat. driver seat floor as small foot rest mark/dig , Rear is very clean no wear. 


Body 

I was in the middle of prepping this car for paint. The Majority of the vehicle has been filled and is ready to be respired. This auction will include a New front bumper and grill. (not pictured on car new in box)

The front right fender will have to be replaced ( 150 dollars new one ebay) .

The front hood bar that holds the lock latch in place will have to be repaired. at the moment i had the mechanic  lock the hood down . A new front hood bar ( 40 dollars) and some shaping will have to be done. 

The hood will need  attention to fill dings and a dent from the broken hood bar . filler or a new hood could be used.

passenger door as been replaced with a new door about 2 weeks ago. the new door handle on the inside slipped off rail lock. easy fix... just take paneling off and reset. 
this new door has minor dings that need to be touched up before respray

On Oct-08-13 at 12:47:21 PDT, seller added the following information:

Would like to clarify , anything in red and the list at the bottom are all extra parts that come with the vehicle ... these parts can restore the car back to stock. The parts needed to be purchased are parts that would restore the body. To pass inspection the new header and catalytic convert would have to installed as well as the front hood bar repaired. Minor amount of work to have a daily driver and a nice paint project to restore this car to its original beauty. Check out the flicker account to see photos !

Honda CEO says we shouldn't expect any new sports cars

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

It wasn't so long ago that Honda was known for its sporty two-door models, with models ranging from the Civic del Sol to the Prelude and from the Acura Integra and RSX to the Honda S2000. But look at its range today and all you'll see are the Civic and Accord coupes. Honda has essentially let competitors like the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ and Nissan 370Z take the place it once claimed as its own. But if you were hoping Honda would fight back with a new coupe or convertible of its own, we're afraid you're going to have to downgrade those hopes to pipe dreams.
While in Japan ahead of the Tokyo Motor Show, Autoblog had a chance to sit down with American Honda CEO Tetsuo Iwamura (pictured at right). When we asked about the potential for a new sports coupe or convertible in the Honda or Acura lineup, he pointed to the current Civic and Accord coupes - not to mention the upcoming new NSX - but said that Honda has no replacement for any of the aforementioned models (or a rival for the FR-S or 370Z) in the pipeline, saying only that the company is monitoring potential demand.
What Iwamura-san did note was that he's a personal fan of the new S660 roadster (pictured above) set to be unveiled tomorrow, and he is pushing (or at least hoping) that it will come to North America. Given that he's head of both Honda's American office and its global automobile operations, one might think that the only person he would have to persuade is himself (well... himself, and potential buyers), but the sporty droptop looks to be about kei-sized, which sadly suggests that it may be too small for American tastes and perhaps not designed with US crash-test standards in mind anyway.

Acura RLX pricing and launch plan detailed

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

Acura has released pricing for its upcoming flagship, the RLX, at the Detroit Auto Show this week. Powered by an all-new direct-injected 3.5-liter V6 rated at 310 horsepower, the front-wheel-drive sedan replaces the outgoing RL model (2011's worst-selling car of the year) as the automaker's new flagship.
In addition to boasting the most spacious passenger cabin in its mid-luxury class, the new range-topping Acura features the automaker's first-ever application of Precision All-Wheel Steer and Jewel Eye LED headlamps. Standard equipment includes Lane Departure Warning and Forward Collision Warning, with Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, and Blind Spot Information (BSI) system trim and option specific.
The four-door will initially be sold in five grades (prices exclude a destination charge of $895):
