Driving to & from the Bank today, I passed a Acura RSX with a personilized plate reading LXKILLA!!
Although I have never tangled with this car, the official specs say that it will do 0-60 in 6.2 sec. & 14.90 in the quarter mile. This car looked totally stock, right out of the showroom..
So is this guy delusional?
Or am I missing something?

I would guess he was trying to convey Lexus Killer

or the standard term LX for luxury vehicle, or lx like sebring lx....but if i saw him i would of handed him his ass :wink:
the fact is besides all of us, no one realy refers to there car as an LX, even owners not familiar with our forums thinks its weird thats its called lxforums.com

Yes - first (and only!) 'race' I ever had was my Maggie vs an RSX coming home from Orlando. I played with him for a minute, then left him. As Rev would say, "Twern't no thang".

I toyed an Acura CL the other day. I remember there was a big deeal about these cars a few years back because they had 260 hp and were "fast." I had my little bro with me (made him an lx lover and he should get his charger in february) and some guy looks at us and kinda scoffs, cuts us off then dips through traffic. I cut around cars so we could get to the light at the same time, we ended up with a car in between us. So when we got to the light, I hit the esp button, downshifted to first and ROASTED him. Usually if I get ahead of someone I let up once the point has been proved. With a putz like this, its different. I kept the hammer down just cause I could and to make the point knnown. It was nice to have my bro with me, all he could do is giggle and go DANGGGGG. So since we missed to turn for home, I turned off at the next light, and this joker swerves at us. It was still fun though. Now he REALLY wants a charger and tells me "when I get my charger I'll kill you cause it's lighter."

Didn't Honda get in trouble recently for over-inflating their HP numbers anyway? Or maybe they used a different method for measuring HP numbers... I don't recall. Either way, there's a difference in "supposed to be fast" and "fast".

I think the plate was meant to be read backwards: ALLIKXL ie: I'll Lick Extra Large... just my take on it......

I don't think a Charger is much lighter than a Magnum, being is the same car with different body panels. Dodge reports the RT RWD Charger at 4031lb. & Magnum RT RWD at 4125, a diff of 94lbs.

I'll make sure that I tell him that. Then we'll have to factor in driver weight, him 120 with a full back pack, me 185 sucking in, but then i have the lighter magnaflow cat-back, but speaker box too. Maybe I'll get him some lead fuzzy dice.
