gee thanks guys.

but i dont know, theres something about that car that i'm obsessed with. i dont know what it is. after the accident i went and looked at buying a preowned 05 rsx-s, but they really werent all that comfortable. i love the luxury of my car, and its uniqueness. cmon, how many CLs do you see driving around modded? so i'm gonna stick it out, get the car back, and depending on whether or not hasport releases a certain mount kit (they exsist, just not to the public ), i'll hopefully be doing a never before done swap in the next few years

of course, i'll only be doing that if i get comfortable enough with hybrid swaps... plans are still undecided right now... first thing to do is get the car back

sixfify, you're da man! I dream of having a k24 one day... I've always wanted a 6spd and I refuse to get rid of my car,... as I always say, why buy a late model car when my 10 year old car is more stylish ??

youd end up spending less on a K24 in the CL and have higher gains than buying a TSX, i figure why not?

oh and i just got a call back from the insurance. they're valuing the car at $5600, damage starts at $6300, they say there might be frame/suspension damage.



i'm gonna do what i can to get it back, but this may mean a new CL... i just hope that when i get the check i dont go off on an impulse and buy a prelude or GSR, i'd really like to follow thru with this goal i have...

if it comes down to a new CL tho, i'm definitely gonna go with a 98-99 this time... extra woodgrain, painted skirts, and I swapped to a 98 grill on my 97 anyway...

oh yeah and the massive extra .1 liter of displacement

It doesnt look like there would be frame or suspension damage, it just took out the door and a few panels. It didnt even hit the part under the door.
