Favorite part of our cl?

so whats your favorite part of your cl? no i don't mean the mods or what not...but like thinking back when it was stock...

i'll go first...

i like the front a lot. I like how it's like pulled back...i like it MUCH MUCH more than the back...the back looks so plain...although it was pretty cool of our cars back in the days when it came out with no trunk key hole! haha. oh yeah the line that goes down the center of the hood and the trunk is pretty unique.

I like the front end too, from the headlights and the 97 grill up to the hood design. The front fenders have a good shape too.

its weird how they didnt include a trunk key hole...what would happen if the lever broke? then you're screwed...but it would look out of place with a key hole in the back though..

oh yeah, i dont like how they gave major upgrades for the 98 and 99 cl and not be included in the 97's (i wish they had it on our 97's)....i.e. steering wheel volume control, an extra 5hp, nicer dashboard, more wood trim, better look stock rims...

hha but we do get that special cyclone blue AND the nice grill.

hey guys, have you guys noticed something? even though our cars are almost 10 years old....it still looks pretty modern. i mean the front looks pointy just like the current acuras...and the ass is round like a new RL...pretty crazy..

i love the back end/trunk design...it looks low and sneaky. I love the 97 front grill too..if the car is coming right at you...it looks big and intimidating.

Yah for sure man...People ask me all the time what year is the car. I say 97 they dont beleive it at first. Once I take care of all the paint chips and dents it'll will look 5 years younger.

no, just premium package cl's and i think 98-99 might have it stock since they had leather stock

Love the front and the headlights and lines, but too close to the accord. My fav part is the rear





And of course

Leather didn't come stock. I have a 98 CL with the Bose system and cloth.

I like the front more than the rear but overall, I like the side profile of the car. Also, I guess I'm in the minority on this site when I say that I like the rear better without a spoiler.

what really drew me to the CL was classic styling. the long smooth lines and contemporary style make it look very modern.
