Your DC5 is Awesomely Clean. Can tell you have put in Tons of Work and are Rightfully proud!!!!! My 40-something Daughter and I have jointly owned an 03 RSX-s since new. She drove it until 2011 as her Daily and maintained it totally Factory and never abused. I took it over then with about 80 k original miles and over the next couple of years began to upgrade it Cosmetically and Mechanically, but never abused. Was resprayed the factory Night Hawk Black, added some Carbon bits and then had a Fully built K20/24 All Motor installed. The styling of the DC5 has remained Fresh in my Mind and the Sound of VTech at 8k never grows old... Since this one was new, I’ve also owned a number of Bimmer Ms and a Porsche 997 Coupe, but the Acura Experience still ranks Highly.. Thanks for listening........
‘What to check for’ video turned into a humble brag walkaround throughout his whole car lol
Acura honestly messed up discontinuing these

2002 and 2003 U.S.A. models don't have heated side view mirrors. The 2005 - 2006 Type-S models K20Z1 engines have about 10 more horsepower because they have DC5 Type R camshafts. Also the final drive on a 2005 - 2006 Type-S was upgraded to the same as a Type R but they don't have an l.s.d.
