Sadly, in May of 2014, I traded off my 2004 Base, auto, WDP TL. The trans was doing what they are all destined to do. So I decided to trade it off.

Ending up with a 2008 Civic Si sedan.

After a few months past, a long with the feeling of my newly acquired toy, and quite a few buck, I came to the conclusion that I despised this car. The car had brand new paint, (thanks to Honda Recall), Eibach suspension, full oem HFP lip kit, HFP exhaust, Injen cold air, double din head unit and all the accessories to make the factory steering wheel options functional, and the SBC Rpf1s.

Finally in Feb of 2015, a trade offer came in that threw me for a loop. After promising I would own another 3g TL, but only a 6mt, it came true. Guy from Marysville needed something better on fuel and wanted my civic.

2005 Acura TL 6speed with navi. Car was lowered on Junk2 springs and KYB Agx struts. All trash and 1 spring broken in 2 places resulting in sliding over the spring perch. Couple broken interior pieces and minor scrapes and scratches. But the best thing, all maintenance was done at Honda. Including timing belt/water pump/ tensioner.
Not even 24 hours of owning the car, i put in a order to Bruce for new suspension, A-spec kit, and leds.

After fighting with Tein and their horrible costumer service, Bruce persuaded me on the ISC sport coilovers.

Bruce modded some headlights for me. Removed diffuser, ZKWR lenses, demon eyes and painted bezels.

Then picked up some xxr 530s. This is as she sits now.

Also added Type S center caps to the wheels, Acura Rdx caliper covers on the rear, white LED under body lights, (hate all you wish), Titanium Burl wood dash kit, painted the grill and emblems black, and a Takada Cold air. I am in LOVE with this car. Feels sooooo good to be back in what is Acuras best built car to this day. And quite frankly, the best looking.
