I work in Reston, VA, but live in Maryland.
Accord Coupe, eh?

I lose track: Is the '03 the NEW design, or did that just start with the '04?
And from what you know about the TSX, how would you say it compares with your car?

BTW I'm very surprised we don't hear more about the Accord coupe on this site. Despite the obvious differences between that car and the TSX, I think they share a lot of characteristics, and I would have thought there would be a lot of cross-shopping of the two cars.

But evidently not. I guess the 2-door/4-door thing makes for a very sharp dividing line.

Well, the cars are very similar mechanically. Same engine, chasis, suspension, and all the electronics are plug and play. The TSX is obviously more refined, very smooth looking. I love my Accord, but I have the "17 TSX Rims, and I have slapped on the TSX exhaust. In fact, I just swapped out my steering wheel controls for the metallic TSX controls, very nice!

I lived in Richmond for a year - does that count? ;) I liked the city a lot, though I've been down there a few times post-flood and it doesn't seem like it's recovered :( I mean, no Bottoms Up???!?

Hey all, I am from Centreville VA here and am looking to get into an 06 CG TSX w/Navi sometime the first half of the year...just thought I would take the time to introduce myself. I am no stranger to Honda's (Acuras) or modding, so feel free to use me as a resource if you want. Past Hondas include 94 Civic EX, 91 CRX SI, and an 01 Prelude. I fell into the draw of the VW world for a short 2 years now and am ready to come back to where I belong. FYI, if you know anyone looking for an 02 GTI, please let me know!

GoHo is pretty good and also Discount Quality Audio Sound and they have one by Lynnhaven Mall will work deals with you as well.....thats where I got my custom box made at with some JL's....(there in my closet). There are quite a few.... I would go price bargain around first ....

As for custom .... they have some good places in Norfolk Va Beach area, like I said earlier, you have to bargain shop around.... I know TNT tinting on Birdneck is an awesome tint place TNT Window Tinting (http://www.tnttinting.net/)
also here is the forum link to my new acura

http://www.tsxclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11991

See Ya Around!!

Yea i went to GOHO the other day, really want a custom fiberglass sub box in one of the wells in the trunk...man gonna be close to $800 for custom sub box with amp and sub!! but yea i'll definitely go shop around the area and see whats good....thanks a lot man! i'll let you know if i get a good deal around here.

Braydogg

04-13-2006, 09:40 AM

Good deal, I already have the subs im gonna be using, I just need a 2 amps one to push my JL W6's 10 inch and another 4 channel amp to push the doors and stuff....Let me know!!! :ben:

what kinda speakers u got in ur doors and rear deck, and amp?? i heard on some other threads that only certain 6x9's work well with the tsx unless u hookup an aftermarket amp to em?

i think im gonna go with either infiniti or some fosgates & a 4 channel to upgrade:D

oh ya, btw - what engine mods u got done so far?

sonnyg80

04-16-2006, 09:40 PM

Braydogg

Yes I bet you cried when she wasnt looking LOL ...I know I would of ... lol

wushu4u

06-05-2006, 09:47 AM

Cried may not be a strong enough word!!! No, she said "well it shouldn't matter because you are putting your aftermarket rims on it anyways aren't you?" I said that is not the point, and that if I were to ever sell the car, I would want the Stockies looking brand spankin' new! I will get a pic of it...like I said, not TOO bad, but about 5 inches worth of lip that just makes me cringe when I see it...

Braydogg

I suppose their are worse things that could happen. at least she didn't ding the door yet :)

I hoped you knocked on wood when you said that :) ... Tell her to park far away from other at wally world....because I will never forget the day when I came outta wally world and a shopping cart was making love to my 04 TSX front fender......3 weeks after I brought it!!!! So I know your feeling....Just keep your head up !

wushu4u

06-14-2006, 03:12 PM

I would hate to be the person who runs into my car with a shopping cart...

Braydogg

06-15-2006, 08:07 AM

Well thats the crazy thing.....no one was out there, a storm was building up and winds were gusty and gave the cart a good ol push hehehe....now I have my 06 and I park sooooo far away. All my lady friend I drop off at the door and I park a country mile away.

wushu4u

06-15-2006, 09:17 AM

hmm...now that is bad when your car gets hit by mother nature! I completely understand why you park so far away now...

Braydogg

06-19-2006, 08:02 AM

I try to park in the emptiest lot available fffaaaaaaarrrr away....

sonnyg80

06-19-2006, 11:05 AM

hey braydogg - i ended up taking off my front license plate bracket off completly:D haha it looks sooo much better w/o it and haven't been harassed about it really - granted i have ohio plates still so maybe that might play a factor? happy nonetheless!

Braydogg

06-19-2006, 02:49 PM

Hey all, moving to VA Beach area in a few weeks. I'm pretty siked about it, but I'll miss MA too.

I've heard that VA residents hate MA residents for some reason, is it true? Anyone know why?

wushu4u

08-07-2006, 01:35 PM

I don't think we hate MA residents...now...my wife is from NH and they definitely hate MA drivers, not neccisarily the residents though. ;)

TSXBeemerGuy

08-07-2006, 05:48 PM

Well, that's a bit of relief. We definitely drive pretty aggressive up here though ;)

wushu4u

08-10-2006, 04:49 PM

Then you will fit right in with the DC drivers ;) Though I have driven in Boston and other parts of MA, ME, and NH (many other states too, just starting with those 3) and nothing, and I mean nothing up there compaires to Beltway traffic here in the DC area...welcome.

TSXBeemerGuy

08-10-2006, 10:10 PM

Great...can't wait for the first time my heart falls to the floor when someone almost hits me...(knocks on wood)

I was actually driving back home around the DC area and a woman in the middle lane was trying to merge over to the exit...by almost completely stopping in the middle of the highway! (VERY busy highway at that...) Cars behind her had to brake and swerve real hard to avoid hitting her. I've never seen something so stupid in my life of driving. :tardsmash

wushu4u

08-11-2006, 12:40 PM

Ahh...the Brake and Bail...I love it. ;) No, Driving here is an experience to say the least since we have MD, VA, and DC drivers who ALL think they are the right driving style...makes for an adventure every day...that is, when you are actually moving more than a mile every hour.

What's up y'all...I just picked up my TSX today, a 2005 Silver 6MT with Navi...loving it, just trying to get used to the damn tranny and DBW! Traded in a 4x4 Nissan for it.

I missed Xenons...wow...don't know I went back to a car without them (a few years ago I had a Mazda3 with HID which were actually really good).

I'm in Richmond, by the way.
