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.  Comes with two OEM Acura keys with two OEM remotes.
 
CAR DOES NOT COME WITH KENWOOD DVD/NAVI IN THE PHOTOS.

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 puts on display of mechanical horsepower in new ad

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Originally forged with a brand identity based on luxury, sportiness and practicality, Acura has spent the last decade or so struggling with its image. The sporting credibility suffered a mighty blow with the loss of cars like the Integra, RSX and NSX, and recent years have seen the Japanese company attempting to recast itself as a technology leader.
All of that makes this latest Acura commercial, Let The Race Begin, even more difficult to understand, metaphorically speaking. The horsepower-horse race 'theme' certainly isn't difficult to fathom, with mecca-equine versions of popular luxury brands filling the screen. But the choice to make Acura's filly a flesh-and-blood creation seems odd, for the high-tech theme. Acura as "thoroughbred apart from the rest of the field" seems to be the rough message here, though we're not sure we're buying it. We're also not sure we're comfortable with how much these ponies reminded us of a certain off-putting robotic dog...
Looks expensive, at any rate. Watch the robot ponies run for yourself, below.

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 recalling 19.5K cars over automatic braking problem

Thu, Jun 11 2015

Acura is recalling 19,502 vehicles to fix a software issue with their Collision Mitigation Braking System on the 2014-2015 MDX and RLX, plus the 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration the technology can falsely interpret things like metal fences and guardrails along the side of the road as obstacles and unexpectedly apply "emergency braking force." Obviously, that would be rather disconcerting while driving. Number of Auto Recalls by Model Year | AxleGeeks According to the detailed documents from NHTSA, the first account of this happening came from Japan in November 2013, and that vehicle was rear-ended when the system suddenly braked. Another incident was identified there in June 2014. However, there have been no reports of this happening in the US. The fix is quite simple, though and just requires a software update for the system. Affected owners will be notified by mail, and the repair will be done at no charge. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Activation of Collision Mitigation Braking System Report Receipt Date: MAY 20, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V301000 Component(s): FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Potential Number of Units Affected: 19,502 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) ACURA MDX 2014-2015 ACURA RLX 2014-2015 ACURA RLX HYBRID 2014 Details Manufacturer: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) SUMMARY: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Acura MDX 2WD and AWD, RLX and 2014 Acura RLX Hybrid vehicles. In certain driving conditions, the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) may incorrectly interpret certain roadside objects such as metal fences or metal guardrails as obstacles and unexpectedly apply the brakes. CONSEQUENCE: If the CMBS unexpectedly applies emergency braking force while driving, there is an increased risk of a crash. REMEDY: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will update the CMBS software, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Acura customer service at 1-800-382-2238. Honda's numbers for this recall is JQ4, JQ5 and JQ6. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
