13:18 I drive the 2003 EL and it does have an a-spec! Back in the day, it was called the "Aero Package" (which for some reason wasn't available in 2004 or 2005 EL's) but it came with a front lip, side skirts, and a back lip, as well as a spoiler in the back. It doesn't seem like a lot but trust me it makes a WORLD of a difference in how great this car looks!

I believe it!! Do you know much extra that would have been back in the day to get the aero package?
@arslan96652 ай бұрын
@@G-Drives I believe around $26,300 CAD in 2003 money with the aero package, and around 25000 without it. My guess is around $1300 for the aero package? Honestly was a little overpriced for what it was. Thats why I see Acura’s as a better buy in the used market lol

Yo G, I enjoy watching ur POV videos on Acura EL. I have 99 EL and like it very much. I have one question for you.. I noticed on ur video where that bus cut you off and almost hit you 🤬 that the roads were rough and it sounded like ur EL suspension didn't absorb the bumps well. Do you find ur EL feels every bump in the roads? My EL is lowered so the ride is rough and can feel lot of the road imperfections and I was curious if you experience the same?
@G-Drives8 ай бұрын
Hi Maji! Thank you so much for the kind words!! I feel like the car did a good job absorbing bumps and all. I find the mic on the GoPro picks up the bump noise and makes it sound more harsh then I feel in real life. Also, your 99 EL is one of my dream cars!! I honestly love the look of it and the ability to mod seems endless! How do you like yours?

@@G-Drives it is nice to see ur enthusiasm for the EL! Not many of us left... Thanks for liking my modded EL. I still like my EL 😁 My mods were focused on the suspension and no regrets despite the rougher ride. Cheers man.
