Up for auction today is my beloved 1998 Acura Integra GSR.  I purchased this car almost three years ago from Salt Lake City UT and I have enjoyed driving it immensely.  I meant it as a restoration project but work has kept me busy, and now I now moving from Maine to Southern California with two other cars--so, sadly, my Acura has to go.

As you can see from the pics, this the white, four door sedan, with the rare leather interior.  The mileage is 148XXX. The sunroof works, the A/C works, and it has an aftermarket security system, as well as an aftermarket cd/stereo with USB and line  in.  Power windows/doors/locks all work as they should.  The "Maintenance Require" light is on, which wasn't reset after my last oil change.  The "Check Engine" light is not on.   Condition-wise, the interior is in very good shape, but, being 16 years old, it does show some wear.  The same can be said for the outside, especially the trim and hood.  The front and rear bumper mouldings could stand to be replaced and the body could use a paint job.  The trunk has a carpet lining (as well as an unconnected amp) and the trunk handle has been replaced with a plastic knob--all shown in the pics.  Also, as seen in the pic, one of the wheel covers is missing.    

Mechanically, the car drives great.  As you most likely know, the GSR is incredibly fast and handles nimbly.  After I bought it, I had a tune up, addressed a few minor mechanical and suspension issues and had the timing belt replaced.  I also had some work done to the exhaust last year, but it has gotten louder as of late, so I think its piping could use some attention.  The front headlights need to be rewired (currently, only the low beams operate).  The emergency brake is on its last legs and will need to be replaced at some point.  Finally, the front left tire needs to be replaced.  I was going to take the car into my mechanic to get these issues fixed and tack the costs onto the opening bid price, but I figured someone out there might be able to do the repairs for less and appreciate the savings.

That about sums it up.  Please feel free to message with any questions.  You are free come take it for a test drive, although I do live in northern Maine on the border with Canada.  I am happy to have this car shipped wherever you like at your arrangement and expense--or feel free to come pick it up.  I will be here until the middle of September, so the buyer will have to have it moved by then.

A $500 Paypal deposit  is due within 48 hours of auction end and the remainder upon shipment/pick up.  As this is a used car, it is of course being sold as is with no warranty.

These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.

Acura reveals Ludacris' restored Legend, Galpin ILX at SEMA

Tue, Nov 3 2015

Acura gave us a hint couple of weeks ago at what it had in store for the SEMA show this year. The Japanese luxury marque has detailed the full extent of its presence at this year's tuner expo, but the main act under the Acura tent (oddly enough) isn't a new vehicle. The star of the show is a 1993 luxury sedan with celebrity provenance. The Legend belongs to rapper-turned-actor Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, of hip-hop and Fast & Furious fame. The automaker has thoroughly restored and modernized the vehicle that featured on the cover of his ninth studio album Ludaversal. At the end of a two-month project, the sedan has been refinished in a custom shade of Warm Cashmere with Ice Pearl. It now rides on 18-inch Rays alloys with Bridgestone Potenza rubber, fitted to a suspension lowered by two inches with H&R springs and Eibach camber kit. It has upgraded brakes with six-piston calipers up front and four-pots at back, and a Pioneer audio system with Alpine subwoofers and Apple CarPlay integration. To complement the Legend, Galpin worked up a 2016 Acura ILX. It has an aero kit, fog lights, custom exhaust, coilover suspension, Borla exhaust, and 19-inch wheels with Pirelli P Zero rubber. The body's been repainted in Sunburst Yellow with gray accents, and sports an interior with perforated leather and gold trim. There'll be another ILX on display with Acura Genuine Accessory parts as well. But the Japanese automaker won't miss the chance to display its new NSX. The supercar's being showcased in a new shade called Nouvelle Blue Pearl. Watch this space for live photos from the show floor, and scope out the details in the press release below in the meantime.

(Nov. 3, 2015) – Acura today thrilled the 2015 SEMA Show with multiple innovative expressions of the brand's performance-crafted DNA – past, present and future – including the debut of the meticulously restored 1993 "Ludacris Legend" sedan, a sport-modified 2016 Acura ILX by Galpin Auto Sports, and the next-generation Acura NSX supercar, slated for its U.S. launch next spring. The Acura exhibit also features a 2016 Acura ILX with the Acura Genuine Accessory Package in Slate Silver Metallic.

Acura preps ILX for endurance racing challenge

Thu, 01 Nov 2012

Acura has used the occasion of this year's SEMA show to unveil a 2013 ILX that is remarkably different from the road-going car that we are familiar with. A far distance from the rather mildly performing street car, this ILX Endurance Racer is actually prepped to race at the grueling 25 Hours of Thunderhill in Willows, California.
The ILX racers (Team Honda Research has prepped two of them for the race) have actually each been constructed using two donor ILX sedans: one body-in-white chassis and one full production-spec car that donates powertrain, interior and electronic components. Overall, increasing the performance of the car was done mostly through extensive weight reduction rather than bumps in power. No figures have been given for the output of the ILX's K24Z7 engine, though we are told that a custom intake and exhaust have been fitted, as well as a racing flywheel.
A prominent LED lighting system dominates the front fascia of the ILX, along with a huge front splitter, while a massive wing speaks to the intentions of the car.
