2003 Acura Rsx Type-s Coupe 2-door 2.0l, Dc5 on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
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. |

2015 Acura TLX configurator ready to spec your 'red carpet athlete'
Wed, 06 Aug 2014When Acura launched the new TLX sedan as a prototype at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show it promised that the car would be a "red carpet athlete." Presumably that meant it would mix photogenic looks with an engaging drive. Now, it's your chance to dress up the vehicle for the festivities with its new configurator that's just hitting the Web.
Prices start at $30,995* for the basic 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 206 horsepower and an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic or $35,220 for the least expensive 3.5-liter V6 with 290 hp with a nine-speed auto, but the bill goes all the way up to $44,700 for a V6 with all-wheel drive and the Advance Package (*plus a $895 destination and handling charge for them). Only the six-cylinder can be optioned with all-wheel drive, but all front-wheel-drive models get Acura's slick P-AWS system that steers the rear wheels.
Outside of the available Technology and Advance packages, the options are kept pretty slim. The range of colors is fairly subdued too with shades of black, white and silver, plus dark blue, dark red and a deep brown called Black Copper Pearl. Upholstery options are limited to a few choices for each exterior color.
Honda and Acura recall 124,077 vehicles due to potential brake failure
Wed, Jul 5 2023Honda and Acura are recalling 124,077 total vehicles across numerous model lines due to a part in the brake system that was potentially improperly assembled, which could ultimately lead to brake failure. The models affected include the 2020-2021 Honda Civic, 2020-2023 Ridgeline, 2021-2023 Passport, 2021-2022 Pilot and the 2020 Acura MDX. As for the issue itself, Honda says the brake master cylinder “may have been improperly fastened to the brake booster assembly during production.” Specifically, the tie rod fastener is the problem point. Honda says that if it was improperly assembled, that could result in loose or missing tie rod nuts. If this is the case, when you hit the brakes, a bending load can be placed on the brake booster tie rod studs, which could in turn cause the tie rod studs to break. This then allows the brake master cylinder to separate from the brake booster, which Honda says could result in diminished or lost brake function. Honda says it received a report of brake failure on a 2021 Pilot last year, which prompted the companyÂ’s investigation. There are no crashes, injuries or deaths related to this issue, according to Honda, but it has received two related warranty claims since September 2022. Owner notifications are scheduled to begin on August 7 this year. Honda says it will inspect and replace any missing nuts, and if any brake booster assembly components are damaged, those will be replaced, too.

2021 Acura TLX revealed, finally looks like a credible luxury sports sedan
Thu, May 28 2020We've been given our first official glimpse into the brand-new 2021 Acura TLX sedan, and so far we like what we see. It's clear that Acura wants to be considered a brand that focuses on performance, boosting power with two turbocharged engine options and the return of the Type S variant after a decade-long absence. Acura stuck close to the well-received Type S concept when styling the new TLX, which means the sedan boasts crisp lines, aggressively creased sheetmetal and a low, wide stance. An angular grille is flanked by Acura's Jewel Eye headlights and Chicane LED running lights to create an expressive face, and similarly shaped taillights at the back end finish off a cohesive design. An A-Spec sport package adds darkened elements along with a unique set of 19-inch wheels and a rear spoiler. The 2021 Acura TLX Type S goes several steps past the A-Spec with a so-called Diamond Pentagon grille and larger side air intakes. A front splitter and rear diffuser join the requisite rear spoiler to round out the aero package. Quad exhaust tips and 20-inch wheels are also included as part of the package. But the big news is underhood, with a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 serving as the headliner. Acura hasn't yet released power figures for the Type S, but promises it will be much more powerful than the outgoing 3.5-liter V6 with "a more than 50-percent increase in low-end torque."  Related: 2021 Acura TLX vs. luxury sedans: How they compare on paper  Standard TLX models will get a new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. That's 66 hp and 98 lb-ft more than the previous naturally aspirated 2.4-liter engine, and Acura says there are 123 additional lb-ft at 1,500 rpm. Both engines will send their ponies through a 10-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and Acura's fourth-generation torque vectoring Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system will be standard on the Type S and optional on other TLX models. Inside, all TLXs get a tech-rich cabin that features a centrally mounted 10.2-inch display and Acura's latest True Touchpad Interface. A 7-inch digital screen in the gauge cluster is standard, and a 10.5-inch head-up display is optional. Acura's Integrated Dynamics System is controlled via a prominent silver dial, and it now offers a customizable Individual mode.
