I used dreamshop and OEMAcuraParts. You need to get the part numbers first if you want to use a “discount” seller. You can find the part numbers on dreamshop too.
I actually bought them through OEM Acura Parts. I compared the price with shipping vs the price at the dealership (with shipping) and it was still cheaper. But Acura North Austin has better prices than MSRP and you could pick up at the dealership. It might be cheaper going that route. I think...
The hubby and the daughter have absolutely no interest in the ITS; none. I don’t even think they realize it doesn’t have rear AC vents, I don’t even think they know it’s a 4 seater. It’s my car, mine. Don’t force it on them. 😂.
I had a chance to drive mine home from Dallas where I bought it. 😜. My family has a couple of places in Utopia and Vanderpool; fun roads to get out there. Thinking of getting out there for the Labor Day Holiday. Only problem is I’m sure my family will want to take the MDX Type S, not the ITS.
The roof looks great. You’re in Austin, right? With all that traffic where are you able to push the car and use all that go go juice? Sitting in traffic? 😂 Kidding. I’m in San Antonio, the Hill Country has some awesome roads for a car like the ITS.
I’m in Texas where it is HOT!!! I know this sounds crazy, but I swear the Acura sunshade makes a huge difference when parked in the sun. Our daughter has a Bronco Sport and she has the genuine factory sunshade for her Sport. Same thing, you can tell a huge difference when it’s been in the sun...
All I know is, I’m forbidden from choosing black (husband has said anything but black.) We have a white MDX Type S, so no white. We had a Liquid Carbon MDX A-Spec, it was nice, but I really didn’t want it in the ITS. That narrowed the choices. That red just pops in person. I took it to my...
I just got back from my shop and they quoted me $800 for just the front bumper; Xpel. Still thinking about it, but leaning no. Getting ceramic next week. I had them come out and look at the car, in the sun. First look, they said the paint looked pretty good. They don’t think it will need paint...
If you are looking on Acura’s website, if the car has the option to buy online, that means initially when the dealer had the allocation/order, nobody’s name was attached to it; it was not a sold car. If it does not give you that option, then it was a pre-sold order and someone’s name was...
Just remember Tiger Eye is only available on the Type S. The Apex Blue is nice too. My two choices were Performance Red and Tiger Eye. I went with the Red as they are not making as many so it will be harder to come by the color so I jumped on it while I could.
Never ever a black car. (Sorry to the owners of a black one.) Hardest to keep clean!!! Just keep looking or stay on the list at Acura of North Austin. They have the allocations, they’ll get the cars. Or like others are saying, the longer they sit on the lots with markups, they’ll start coming...
I’m in SA too. My windows are tinted (by the dealer) and I have the black interior, no issues. While that orchid is lovely, jean transfer is real. I also have the Acura sunshade and I swear it makes a difference.
