Has anyone got any idea why Acura changed the amber tail signal lights from amber (1.6) to red (1.7)? What's the advantage and disadvantage? I personally...
As if it was a sign for me to go ahead and buy my HID kit :) both of my Sylvania Cool Blue bulbs burnt out today at the same time. I examined the bulb and...
Can't really explain why Honda has done that with the EL, Civic, CL, last few years of the Integra, 2001 Odyssey (switched to amber sicne 2002 model), Accord...
I really agree. I've followed a few civic while driving in my EL under bright sunlight and I realized how hard it was to distinguish signal light vs brake...
I have had a K&N drop-in filter for about 17k km now and haven't had to service it yet. There is no way that the dealer will even touch your filter. You can't...
One of my PIAA Xtreme H4 bulbs blew about 2 months ago, and I was running around with one Xtreme, and 1 stock bulb.... Ugh. I ended up going to Autobas in...
You could always just go to Canadian Tire or Wal-Mart and get a pair of Osram/Sylvania, Philips, or Hella ordinary H4 bulbs! I've seen too many horror stories...
Yes, I submitted to my overwhelming urge to buy this kit... Catz H4 dual-beam HID kit (4500K) sold from Liteswap.com. Original price is $599 USD, -10%...
It's $34,800 for the TSX. This still leaves a big gap between the EL and TSX. It makes you wonder what's coming up for the 2004 EL. In Thailand they have a new...
AWESOME! You finally found the chunk of change lying around in your house to pay for this kit eh? Good job. I'm very excited and truly happy for you! Hope all...
I agree. There's no reason not to release a 2.0EL. It will up the EL distinctly above the Civic if they keep the civic at 1.7L. I sense an engine swap....
They really need to distinguish the EL from Civic a little more. The EL gets a lot of bad rap for essentially being a dolled up Civic. Even in the National...
Dropping in the 2.0L (160 HP) engine in the EL would hike its price to the level of the RSX, which I don't necessarily think is a bad thing. But it may not be...
I still have my '99 EL, at this time I can't see replacing it very soon. I was at my dealership just this morning, and the place is overrun with EL's, it is...
I don't think pricing is an issue. There's plenty of room. Heck they sell the EL with an Aero package that already puts it into the RSX price range. And I...
... Might be nice but I strongly suspect this WILL NOT happen. 04' I assume will be the last year for this generation Civic/EL serious reengineering(new...
There is quite the possibility that the EL could be retired following this generation. Honda could be trying to push the Acura line more upscale, since that...
The primary reason why there isn't a bigger distinction between the Civic and the EL is $$$. Face it, Canada is a very small market in comparison to the U.S.,...
I totally agree with everything you point out here, my EL was made a couple weeks before they changed over to calling them 2000's, and I feel these cars were...
You guys are right. The EL is what pays the bills at the Canadian dealerships. But, I wonder how the U.S. Acura dealerships are getting by without a volume...
If I'm not mistaken, up until the introduction of the RSX, the U.S. dealers had 4 dr. Integras they could offer to the market. If you check out information...
It's all about disposable income. Let say you may CAD$30K in Canada; you'd probably make USD$30K in the US. Of course food and everything else costs about the...
Actually, that's what I was thinking. Make the EL a little more upscale, ie. base it more on the RSX. And to fill the void of the current EL, just bring in the...
I've seen one in my area. Silver w/ Aero Kit. That's it. You guys made some key points and I just like to say I agree with all your views. ... upscale, ie. ......
One of the great mysteries of our time. How dealers and aftermarket shops charge so much for what is essentially molded plastic. Not to mention that the...
On the subject of the TSX, here is a review from the popular "Road & Track" magazine. http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=6&article_id=488...
