 This is my 03 Acura RSX Type-S that I purchased in 2004 from the local dealership. This car was my daily driver and currently has 134,466 original miles on it.  The car has been on countless road trips with me. It has the typical wear and tear on the body with a few rock chips on the front bumper. What is to be expected with an 10 year old car. The car has one report on it that I am aware of.  A friend of mine put his car in drive instead of reverse and hit my bumper.  Being that I just got the car, I did not have the extra cash and had insurance pay to replace my rear bumper.  The work was done at a reputable body shop here in Jacksonville. I am selling the car as it sits currently with Tein Super Street Coilovers, JDM Headlights with black housing, Powerstop Cross drilled rotors all around, JDM coin holder, Boomerang Armrest, Type-S Floor mats, Custom "Honda" H center caps, Honda "H" Emblems, Both front and rear mud flaps, Competition clutch and new flywheel, and JDM window visors. Only engine modification was the AEM V2 Intake. The car was taken for the transmission recall back in 04, Duval Acura took care of it.  I replaced the dinky USDM Type-S emblem and chose the JDM Type-S emblem on the trunk.  The car sits on 4 Falken 912's with plenty of life still on them.  This is a great project if someone want's to continue from where it is, or just to leave as it is and drive. 
CAR DOES NOT COME WITH THE TEIN HOOD DAMPERS, TEIN EDFC, OR KENWOOD DVD/NAVI FROM THE PICTURES, THOSE ARE ON OTHER AUCTIONS.

Con's:  Oxidation on headlights and roof, Clutch is still good but whines. Also, not stock, so it takes some getting used to.  May need to replace the sunroof rubber gasket? Not sure, just heard that this should be replaced after a few years, and i have not. Being in Florida, the sun takes a toll on rubber and paint.

Pro's: Tires have plenty of tread and life, AC is ice cold,  Tein Super Street Suspension and all the modifications listed above, This car has never had engine modifications done except the AEM V2 Intake, Do not hesitate to take this car on a long road trip. 

Ask any questions prior to bidding and I will answer them. 

Arrange shipping or transportation prior to winning the bid.  I can try and help, but car will not be released until payment is made and cleared.

Acura RDX Luggage Test | How much cargo space?

Tue, Jun 23 2020

The Acura RDX is considered a compact luxury SUV, but there's actually very little that's compact about it. When lined up against its competitors, you can see that it enjoys a clear dimensional advantage. In fact, the RDX is pretty close to the Lexus RX, with an identical rear legroom figure and considerably more cargo space with the back seat raised. Obviously, I'll be addressing the latter here. On paper, Acura provides several cargo numbers calling out specific SAE measurement standards for each one. Basically, it has 31.1 cubic-feet behind its back seat when you include its underfloor storage and 29.5 cubic-feet when you don't. Even that smaller number is superior to everything in the segment save the Volvo XC60 (29.7), while the Lexus RX apparently has a seems-way-too-small 18.4.   Let's see what that size advantage means. It's obvious that this is a comparatively deep and wide space with plenty of air above the back seat line for bulkier items. Note that the cargo cover was not present in this test vehicle, so I couldn't test capacity with it in place. As in every luggage test, I use two midsize roller suitcases that would need to be checked in at the airport (26 inches long, 16 wide, 11 deep), two roll-aboard suitcases that just barely fit in the overhead (24L x 15W x 10D), and one smaller roll-aboard that fits easily (23L x 15W x 10D). I also include my wife's fancy overnight bag just to spruce things up a bit (21L x 12W x 12D). There you go, all the bags fit easily. This is pretty much identical to the Lexus RX (below left) and a much easier fit than the Mercedes GLC, which is  one of the only other compact luxury models I've tested. Both of these examples are more capacious than their specs would indicate. However, this is not the end of the RDX story. Remember when I mentioned that it has 31.1 cubic-feet when including its underfloor storage? Well, that might actually be underselling the extra space gained. First, I like that the floor flips back and rests flat so you can easily use the extra space. You can also fully remove the floor piece to gain access to the aft bin, which is deeper but oddly shaped.  Here are my four largest bags standing up, with sufficient rear visibility maintained, and you still have the full-width section of the cargo area including the underfloor bin. What can you fit there? How about a 38-quart cooler and the remaining two bags stacked haphazardly around it.

2024 Acura ZDX price starts at $64,500 before destination, incentives

Mon, Jan 22 2024

When the Acura ZDX was revealed in August, we wrote the A-Spec will be in the $60,000 range and the Type S in the $70,000 range. Official pricing shows that to be the case, the entry-level A-Spec with rear-wheel drive starting at $64,500 before destination. Acura charges a $1,350 destination fee for the RDX and MDX, it's two current SUVs. We'll use that as a placeholder sum for the ZDX, resulting in these MSRPs: A-Spec RWD: $65,850 A-Spec AWD: $69,850 Type S: $74,850 Type S (Perf. wheel & tire): $75,850 Before we get to the comparisons, let's recap what buyers get for the money. The A-Spec comes standard in rear-wheel-drive, its single motor making 340 horsepower. A dual-motor AWD version costs $4,000 more; Acura didn't specify a difference in output, it could be the same 340 hp no matter the number of powered axles. The Type S comes with dual motors producing 500 horsepower to share among the four wheels. The suspension here is upgraded from the A-Spec's multi-link independent with fixed-rate shocks and springs to height-adjustable air springs and adaptive shocks. The brakes go from 12.6-inch rotors to 15.6-inch discs clamped by Brembo six-piston calipers. The A-Spec sits on 20-inch wheels, the Type S wears 22-inchers on tires that are 10 millimeters wider. And that Type S gets the option of Double Apex Blue Pearl from the Precision concept or Tiger Eye Pearl from other Type S models. Inside, there's a a low dash with slim air vents and a pair of split screens for instruments and infotainment; 11 inches and 11.5, respectively. The steering wheel and climate controls come from the related Blazer EV, this being Acura's version of a battery-electric SUV sitting on GM's Ultium platform. Unlike a GM product, though, Acura's back end runs on Google Built-In, and there's an 18-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system as standard equipment. Assistance features include rear emergency braking with rear cross-traffic and pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring with steering assist, automatic parallel parking and, thanks to being based on a GM platform, hands-free highway driving assist (Super Cruise by any other name). Every ZDX is powered by a 102-kilowatt-hour battery, the onboard charger capable of 190 kW of DC fast charging. Every unit's CCS charging port can plug in at places like Electrify America and EVgo, Acura dealers will provide free NACS adapters for use at Tesla Supercharger stations.

Acura models no longer produced or sold in China

Mon, Jan 9 2023

SHANGHAI — Chinese carmaker Guangzhou Automobile Group said on Monday its joint venture with Honda Motor is no longer producing or selling products under the Japanese firm's premium Acura brand. GAC will continue to provide after-sales services to Acura customers in China through the joint venture's network, it said in a statement to Reuters. The joint venture will continue to produce other Honda brands. Acura is the second foreign car brand to exit China, the world's largest auto market, in recent months. In October GAC said it was closing its joint venture with Stellantis, which made Jeep vehicles, following a sharp decline in Jeep sales in China over the past four years. GAC-Honda, which started producing Acura cars in 2016 in China, only sold 6,554 of them in the country in 2021, down 45% from the previous year. Related video: 2022 Acura NSX Type S track footage
