Today we bring you a 2006 Acura RSX Type S that's been heavily modified.

So heavily modified that I don't have space to list them all -- but I can tell you there's a supercharger under hood.

The mileage is over 172,000 and the price is $14,500 or best offer.

Surf on over to the listing to see the novel-length post to see all the various mods made to this Pennsylvania-based car.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Great car before it was heavily modded! No one is going to buy it for that much money with that many miles at that age in this economy full of layoffs happening! His mods are great but always depreciates a car knowing the fact that takes away from the life duration of that vehicle vs what it was stock! He’s better off keeping it or selling it at a much lower cost! 🥱

Im Sure this has been discussed here but this Integra follow up’s big problem was it’s lack of rear trailing links resulting in excessive negative camber and a switch to front MacPhersons which some do better than others.

my friends girlfriend had the UK built Civic Si hatch of this generation civic and we used to drive the hell out of it around town

SCE to AUX Here's a crazy thought - what if China decides to fully underwrite the 102.5% tariff?
3-On-The-Tree They are hard to get in and out of. I also like the fact that they are still easy to work on with the old school push rod V8. My son’s 2016 Mustang GT exhaust came loose up in Tuscon so I put a harbor freight floor jack, two jack stands, tool box and two 2x4 in the back of the vette. So agreed it has decent room in the back for a sports car.
Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh so what?? .. 7.5 billion is not even in the same hemisphere as the utterly stupid waste of money on semiconductor fabs to the tune of more than 100 billion for FABS that CANNOT COMPETE in a global economy and CANNOT MAKE THE US Independent from China or RUSSIA. we REQUIRE China for cpu grade silicon and RUSSIA/Ukraine for manufacturing NEON gas for cpus and gpus and other silicon based processors for cars, tvs, phones, cable boxes ETC... so even if we spend trillion $ .. we STILL have to ask china permission to buy the cpu grade silicon needed and then buy neon gas to process the wafers.. but we keep tossing intel/Taiwan tens of billions at a time like a bunch of idiots.Google > "mining-and-refining-pure-silicon-and-the-incredible-effort-it-takes-to-get-there" Google > "silicon production by country statista" Google > "low-on-gas-ukraine-invasion-chokes-supply-of-neon-needed-for-chipmaking"
