Don't I have to be a member to upload pics to this site? I hosted these on image shack since I couldn't upload directly to the site.

Nice 1tsxer; carbon gray and red were the only colors I cared for at the time and TSX was one of the best deals out there. I was going to sell it to get an A4 but decide to go with an S2000 and just keep both.

That's funny, those are the only two colors I cared for too. I really wanted a red/ebony.

I wanted red/ebony too but don't think it was offered till 2005 or else that would have been I'd be driving now. I'm not not a huge fan of the newer tsx and price has gone up

^Ya, I was going for red until I realized that in only came with the beige interior. Second choice was CGP/ebony. I ended up with CGP/quartz I'm still happy with my choice. My TSX is my daily and has 93,000 problem free miles. I picked her up in October 2004. He is a few older pics:




sorry to thread jack

Wow that looks good! lots of detail and very clean looking. I picked mine up in June 2003 and it now has about 94k. I haven't done much to mine, just factory ground effects, comptech short shifter, springs, and sway bar. Interior is stock ebony six speed w/navi. I had to wait for it to arrive from Japan and the wait was worth it.

Unfortunately something in the navi sys malf in the first few thous miles, air conditioning sys died around 50k, mirror was loose (vibrated like crazy) and rear bearing wore out (my fault). Fortunately, everything was covered under both factory/extended warranty and I actually got my money's worth from the extended. Warranty is out and rear window doesn't roll down though probably as simple as a guide and can do it myself.

Overall I've been pretty happy with it and hoping it will last to 150k miles. I'm hoping this S2 last a long time too as I love driving both.
