If you think about it, being a car collector isn’t easy. Keeping up with maintenance and spending time to drive each one to keep it in tip top shape is a lot of work. I really like how you have a strong connection to a lot of the local Acura dealerships. It’s really cool!

I'm always intrigued by your Acura collection. The amount of love and care that goes into them is humbling. I say that because you're a rare breed. A lot of people just don't care for their cars like they should. I'm reminded at the sheer amount of absolute turds driving around everywhere. It's nice to see someone who actually takes pride in what they drive. I would love to visit your garage someday and be in awe. Great video as always.

I'm super excited to bring it to cars & coffee this weekend and be parking in the VIP section. It probably won't get the love the McLaren and GT3 regulars get, but I can't wait!

Just saw your appearance on Jay’s Garage. Last month, I donated a red 1989 Acura Integra coupe, w/ 205k miles on it, to a charity, due to it’s numerous issues, although, it still drove fine & still got over 30 mpg in it. Wish I’d known about you before I went & did that.

@@TysonHugie Wow! I’m honored you replied to my little comment. I was floored! I don’t know what auction you were viewing, but my old Integra was donated to a charity (local NPR station) & has already been sold off for an astounding (in my opinion) $1525! Apparently, someone saw more value in the car than I did, or was willing to jump thru all the hoops to search out a buyer. It looked good at a distance, but up close, the rusting out rear wheel well sheet metal (car spent the 1st 13 yrs or so subjected to ILL winters), drivers seat patched together ‘cause the material was so thin & prone to tearing, & it was still running R12 refrigerant in the A/C, so, basically, non-functional.

The big issue is parking I only have one garage spot 1 driveway spot and both of those have sizes limitations my mid sized truck doesn’t fit in either and my TSX barely squeezes into the garage with both mirrors folded and just barely fits in the driveway without overhanging the sidewalk everything else is street parked and can only sit for 3 days at a time, I have street cleaning every other week so gotta move it or it’s a fat couple hundred dollar ticket (same with the 3 day thing)

What I'm learning is to avoid getting cars as "placeholders." I've lost money on most of my recent project cars. So if you are going to invest in restoring and preserving a car long-term, make it be one that you are saving for a specific reason and not just to check a car off your list.
