***Hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know that I sold this car back in 2007.  Funny story...I sold it to a person, who auctioned it, and that purchaser then sold it to an elderly lady, who in turn sold it to a guy, who found me on the internet and told me how he came into ownership of it.  It seems that after owning the car for a couple of weeks, the lady who purchased it was "too scared to drive it, because it was so fast", and had to turn around and sell it ;).  You will be missed, black TL-S.  I hope whoever has it now is enjoying it.  I am still here however, so if you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line.  Cheers, and happy modding!

 

Introduction:
Austin519's 2002 Acura TL Hi, this is Austin519's 2002 Acura TL-S page. I am currently a first year law student at Emory Law in Atlanta, wanting to do IP work. Previously I was a student at the University of Texas at Austin, majoring in Computer Engineering. If anyone around Atlanta would like to drop by, feel free to shoot me an email at Austin519 at aol.com and I'd be happy to meet up with you. You can find me online usually on AOL Instant Messenger (as Austin519), and I also am an avid poster and moderator on www.acuraworld.com.

Austin519's 2002 Acura TLI've put up pictures for everything I have done to my TL-S... hopefully they'll be interesting, especially to those do-it-yourself'ers, as I have vowed to do every modification I possibly can myself. I also have listed the costs of all the modifactions I have done...those that were sponsored, I placed the cost in (parenthesis).

Austin519's 2002 Acura TLEach page contains one specific modification, or group of modifications. I want your votes and your feedback...so please vote on my ride above...and any feedback to me or about my car in my guestbook, I reply to all my entries.

Awesome story. Anyone who opened the hood would know this isn't some stock Acura. It's a pure sleeper car dude, nice job!

Cool story, I always wondered if there was a way to make the Tranny indestructable for the 2nd G TL.
