Adam Pascual from Miami, FL is the proud owner of this 2005 Acura Tsx. It took Adam about 3 months to completely finish his project, and completed it with a set of CCW Im5ts and Airtekk air suspension, a cI9 Honda grill, and an Aspec front lip.
Adam has always admired the Tsx and dreamed of getting a 4 door to experiment with. After finally finishing this project, Adam can look back and say he didn't face any major obstacles during his build, but is looking forward to possibly modifying the interior to black and giving it a VIP style, adding navigation, a euro r grill, and new headlights. His favorite places for inspiration and parts are Craigslist, Stance Works, and Tsxclub.
Dream car: Although his dream car is a Henessey Venom GT

Ron Marchini all the way from Clearwater, FL has been working on this one-of-a-kind 2000 Acura NSX for two years. His main focus was to build a functional car that he could take to the tracks to compete with newer sportscars, all while maintaining show quality.
When Ron originally purchased the car in Rhode Island, the Comptech supercharger already installed made one unforgettable ride back to Florida. Ron added CCW Classics, worked on improving the horsepower, Brembo brakes, and Comptech suspension; recent upgrades include a new front lip from Shine. Ron also plans to get a TypeR hood to boost the downforce and widen the front fenders. Ron Marchini spent a lot of time, money, and effort as he pushed to get the results he was looking for. His most used site for parts during this build was Science of Speed. And, with an exquisite outcome like this, it's no wonder Ron doesn't intend on building anything else in the near future.
Dream Car and Why?: "The LFA, because I think it represents the best car that Japan has to offer...just like in 1991 when the NSX was released."
