Pulled the trigger on a 2019 MDX A-Spec - Really happy with everything so far, love the aggressiveness of this thing for a mini-human and doggo mover. Wife finally got the black on black SUV she always wanted. Hat tip to Anton over at Burrard Acura, great service and help getting this done. :thumbs:

Both cars out for photos in the last couple weeks. Felt like summer, now it doesn't.

Car looks amazing! but why do all the photos look distorted?..

trollface 04-08-2023 07:20 AM

Prob ultrawide on a cellphone, they tend to pull things and jack up the colors (look how blue that sky is).

G0rilla 04-08-2023 09:37 AM

Insured too soon, next week full of rain

were you able to check if it was him? or a caretaker

We did a U-turn a little past the ski area where the road was closed by the police. He waved at them and they said Good Afternoon Mr Jay to him through their car's loudspeaker haha

seeing a g35 on this forum brings RS 2009-2012 vibes :tears:

bcrdukes 04-10-2023 09:23 AM

Off topic slightly, but is this generation of G35 still a good buy for a fun/weekend car? I imagine they will need some maintenance given the age/mileage, but anything catastrophic?

TopsyCrett 04-10-2023 09:33 AM

^ Other than typical VC leaks, I know the VQ's are pretty reliable! Higher mileage ones will burn oil, so just have to watch out for that. I find these cars, along with 350z's, very easy to work on as well.

Most of them end up in the hands of Surrey teenagers & are completely rat-bagged by now. Would be worth waiting for a cared-for example.

Badhobz 04-10-2023 09:47 AM

plz put skyline badges on the back of it. THATS A MUST.

I have the same car and was debating on buying those headlights. How are you liking it compared to the brightness vs the OEM? They say it condensates inside the unit, have you experienced it yet?

RevYouUp 04-10-2023 11:48 AM

Driving this thing daily for now

these 90's / 2000's cars look so refreshing compared to the modern day behemoths we have rolling around.

tofu1413 04-10-2023 02:36 PM

post 2010 stuff are massive.

just look at the 911 alone!!

Badhobz 04-10-2023 04:20 PM

Look at that integra inside the “small car” parking stall. Ample space on both sides. I don’t recall the integra being super small on the inside either. A whole crew of nammers used to pop out of one and roll on people so I’m sure it had enough space

valve cover gasket went and was leaking a lot but was an easy fix, oil consumption is kind of annoying but not too bad. tons of fun and parts have been relatively cheap comparing to my g37

the light output isn't terrible but I lost one of the caps for the back of the headlight and water keeps getting in.. and the manufacturer doesn't sell just the cap :okay:
Trying to find a ghetto fix for this so any input would be great

Check the junkyard.

Either its clear coat or primer paint is chipping off from car washes... Trying to figure out if i can live with it until i get a new car or some DYI techniques..
