I really hate to do it but the time has come to sell my car. I'm the 3rd owner of this car and I bought it in 2008. The car has been a North Carolina car since 1998 when it had 52,337 miles. I have most if not all the receipts from this date forward.

Timing Belt & Water Pump replaced at 127,646 miles.
Clutch replaced at 134,137
Left and Right axles replaced at 153,094
Rack and Pinion replaced at 161,153
Front and Rear Brake Pads and Rotors replaced at 167,706
Radiator replaced at 184,984
Fluids, Idle pulley, and belts replaced/ changed at 184,xxx

The antenna, power/heated mirrors, power windows, power locks, power seats, power seat belts, moon roof, and vacuum seal doors all work perfect. Everything on this car works great with the exception of the Kenwood amp. The car has passed local NC inspection and all taxes, tags, and registration are current and up to date. No warning lights are on and there are no leaks.

This car is in great condition and I would have no problems driving it cross country with no worries. The 6 speed Legend is very rare and they are becoming hard to find, especially one in this condition with this kind of receipt history. This car come with a cold air intake by RM Racing, full Remus exhaust, Chipped ECU, and Venom Module. There are new Infinity component speakers in the front, and I have a set of Polk/MOMO 6x9's in the trunk. Also comes with a Pioneer IMPP 10" subwoofer and 2 Kenwood amps. The 600 watt amp that powers the subwoofer stopped working a couple of days ago and will need to be replaced. Comes with a eclipse head unit.

The paint and all the body panels are original with the exception of the front bumper. It was replaced by the 2nd owner after the mounting tabs broke off due to one of those concrete spacers in the parking lot. This car sits low and it's kind of a long hood so it's tricky to judge the space for the front bumper.

The car does have a few door dings but nothing major especially considering the car is 21 years old. There are a couple of small rust spots starting on both of the front fenders (4 in total.) 1 above each turn signals and 2 near where the bumper connects. These spots are really small and in fact look more like cracks in the paint. The front grill, bumper, and the hood also have some chips in the paint from rocks and road debris. The front bumper is a little off kilter thanks to a parking lot spacer and the drivers seat is showing wear. There is also a crack on the dash and around the bezel of the air vents which is very common for this car.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some things, but if you have any questions please feel free to contact me and we can talk.
I reserve the right to end this auction early as I have the car listed locally as well. If your in the Raleigh are or would like to come by to see the car please don't hesitate to ask.
A non refundable $500.00 deposit is due at the end of the auction and The car must be picked up by the end of April.

2021 Acura TLX Long-Term Update | Seats look great, feel less so

Fri, Jun 11 2021

There's a lot to like about our Acura TLX A-Spec's interior. In particular, I love the vivid red leather upholstery, the satisfying drive mode selector, and the loads of space inside. What I'm not so in love with is the actual design of the front seats. They look great and are quite shapely with the undulating black faux suede inserts and leather piping separating the aforementioned red leather panels. But they're underwhelming when they're under you. My biggest complaint is that the seat bottom is extremely short, and the adjustment for angle is a bit limited. As such, my thighs lack support, and on a long trip, this can become quite uncomfortable. The Acura is far from the only car I've experienced with this issue, but with our car priced over $45,000, it's surprising there isn't more adjustment, or some sort of seat base extender common in sportier cars (most notably BMW). 2021 Acura TLX A-Spec View 51 Photos Also disappointing is the lack of lateral support. The seats look like they have some decent bolsters, but they're very soft and fairly wide apart. As such, they don't do much to keep you in place. And although this isn't the full-force Type S, the A-Spec still has an air of sportiness about it, so it seems like something Acura would want to improve a little. It's not all bad, though. The seats themselves have thick and reasonably soft cushioning, so the parts of you that are supported are comfortable. The adjustable lumbar support is actually quite excellent with the ability to add quite a bit over a large area. Overall, I'm not angry with the TLX's seats, I'm just a bit disappointed. They wouldn't put me off the car, I just think that, for as good as so much else is, it deserves something better. Related Video:

2024 Acura ZDX getting Google in its infotainment

Tue, Jun 6 2023

Acura is joining a number of automakers (such as Polestar, Chevrolet and others) in integrating Google apps directly in its infotainment system, first on the 2024 ZDX electric SUV. The integration includes Google Maps, Google Assistant and other Google apps. Additionally, the infotainment will continue to support phone mirroring apps such as Apple CarPlay and Google's own Android Auto. Among those apps, perhaps the most useful will be Google Maps. The reason being that it will be able to plan routes that include charging stops and charging time estimates. In addition to the routing, Google Maps will be able to tell the car to start preconditioning the battery for the fastest possible charge times when going to a DC fast charger. Of course, other Google apps will let you sign in with your account so that you have access to them without connecting your phone. But fortunately, you can connect and mirror your phone. This is notable as the ZDX will be on the GM Ultium platform, like the Honda Prologue. And GM is removing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support from its upcoming Ultium models. So if you do like those features and are interested in the Ultium electrics, you may want to consider the Acura and Honda models. Another interesting tidbit from the Acura infotainment announcement is the fact that the ZDX will feature a touchscreen for the infotainment system. Almost all of Acura's current gas-powered vehicles use an infotainment system built around a touchpad, which is the only way to interact with the system. The one exception so far has been the Integra, which simply lifted the Civic system wholesale. Acura didn't say if the touchpad would also be included in the ZDX, though the screenshot of the system seems touchscreen-focused. The ZDX is going on sale early next year, with a reveal presumably happening between now and then. As previously mentioned, it will be Ultium-based, and we're expecting it to be similar in size and performance to the Chevy Blazer EV. A high-performance Type S version will be offered, and we wouldn't be surprised if it gets something similar to the 557 horsepower of the Blazer EV SS.

Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD set for LA debut

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Acura has announced that it will be showing the production version of the RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. You'll recall that the standard 3.5-liter V6-powered RLX has been on sale for some time, and that our review of Acura's flagship sedan was mixed. On paper, at least, the RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD should fare better.
Sporting a similar hybrid powertrain to the one expected to motivate the NSX supercar, the RLX uses a 3.5-liter V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and a trio of electric motors to generate 377 horsepower, net a combined fuel economy of 30 miles per gallon and offer the security and performance of torque-vectoring all-wheel drive.
The RLX will hit the LA stand on November 20. Scroll down for the full press release from Acura.
