2.2CL
| | Model of the car: | 2.2CL | | | General comments: | I paid about 25,000.. since I bought it even before the 97 model year.. But even with that money.. I think it's a decent buy.. I actually liked it so much that I once thought about buying the new CL as my next car.. However, I just hated the new CL's look.. It's just plain ugly.. and I am sure that Acura will acknowledge that they did something wrong..I did some modifications on my car.. I lowered my car and then changed the shock absorber.. which I highly recommend.. I think the car's ground clearance is way too high and lowering the car will make this car look MUCH better and also it just handles better since it virtually eliminates the roll.. the stock cl handles ok and it was pretty fun to drive.. but to someone like me.. it's suspensions were just too soft.. I personally like firm cars.. not as firm as the s2000, but as most BMWs with sports package.. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | - Styling.. from front..- wide turning radius which also means slow turns...- This car is just too high.. (I ended up lowering my car by almost 2 inches.. which also removed the excessive roll.. I really recommend this if you want to transform your cl to a good handling machine..) | | | Previous car: | - BMW 318 - CL is faster.. as i mentioned.. if paired with manual- BMW M3 - what do you expect.. M3 is a legend...- Honda Accord - I assume these two are the same thing.. but I personally hate accord and like my CL.. but it's a personal call- Audi A4 - I |
