pics of what the engine? .. i'd like to do another cl.. but with the extra money i'll have after buying a eg9 civic fiero from japan.. i can do a nasty turbo and tons of other stuff.. instead of having to pay money for another cl.. because insurance isn't giving me what i would need to buy another.. plus i'll be going 2 seconds faster due to weight to power ratio

According to Motor Trend (Feb. '02):

3.2 Liter DOHC (6-speed) is 290 HP and 224 lb-ft Torque

3.0 Liter DOHC (4-speed auto) is 252 HP and 210 lb-ft Torque

Impressive!

wow, that sucks.
I totalled mine and my insurance company pay me more than I pay for the car ($25.5k CDN).
I had prepared a market value report that I got from acura dealer in case that I didn't get what i want.

You should do the same if you know any dealer well enough.

Is it possible to swap the NSX 3.0 V-6 w/Auto tranny into our 3.0CL?

This must not be possible since I haven't seen it addressed here (although I haven't done a "search" on this site).
