It's a '97 3.0CL that I picked up this wednesday (2/15) night. The car has some scratches (obviously) and two small tears on the inside leather seats.

This is my first car (I'm 15.5, just got like 3 weeks ago). Heh...I did made the tires squeal like crazy (by accident) today because I pushed the gas a bit too much at a traffic light making a left turn Actually I did that twice, but the first time was mild compared to the second. Anyways, here are some pics. No engine because it's all stock so you guys know what it looks like. I'm considering buy a new head unit, amp and speakers for next school year.

 

looks good.

i wish i had a car like this as a first car. If you pinched your pennies and bought it with your own $$$, then props. but if mommy and daddy bought it for you....i guess your just spoiled!...jk...your just a lucky kid...enjoy the wheels, but most importantly, repect them.

 

I wish I had the money to buy it. But I don't, since my parents won't let me get a job. The car is "technically" my dad's since his name is on the title, but he bought it for me. I love the way it sounds at high RPMs And looks, and drives, and etc. lol Yes I'm lucky.

I also have a 350z. But, it's from RadioShack lol

 

since this is the most active thread right now, quick question i need to know if our rear seats fold down, its to cold out for me to look at my own car, this girl i know has a 97 CL and need to fit a beer pong table in her car. sorry to hi jack the thread.

 

nice car by the way its good to see the young guys getting into the 1st gen game.

 

No, they don't. Even I know that lol

 

Sweet whip, looks just like my car when I got it. Don't crash it youngin

 

lol...the kid's a smart ass..i like him!



and yeah i can confirm that...no folding...

 

You're 17 with a beer pong table, and no your seats don't fold down, did you not know that for sure?

 

i knew the middle thing came down, man that really sucks that our seats dont go all the way down. most japanese cars have that. i assumed ours cars had that as well, thats a huge inconvience come to think of it.

 

i say we should all rip out the back seats...not like they get used that often and put in crazy custom molded sound systems!

 

i couldnt afford that, ppl are packed in my car all the time

 

workin on it

 

i rarely have ppl in the back...if i am going out, i would rather be comfortable in a 4 door or suv and if i am with my woman,, she sits in the front and noone rides with us...gotta do things right you know

 

just take your rear seat out...
and nice car

 

i know you are, you are one of the guys i am watching out for on this site cause given the time...you will be crazy pimping your ride...but for a full time student that has only a roof provided by mommy and daddy, i think i am doing quite we for myself!

 

Anyways, I have a few questions

1)How many speakers are there (6?), where are they, and what size are they?
2)The car alarm goes off whenever I try to open the door with a key, why? Remote doesn't set it off, but both keys do.
3)Is there an amp and where is it?
4) I'm sure I'll think of more lol

 

search

 

1) 6,(i have 8 hehe) two in the doors, two in the back and two tweeters along the dash
2)i have an aftermarket alarm/remote entry therefore i don't know
3)yes,
4) me too...

 

welcome

why wont ur parents let u get a job? how are u gonna buy shit for the car with no $$

 

They think that it'll affect my grades. (I've always been on honor roll since 6th grade<5th and under don't have it>) They'll let me get a job during the summer most likely.

How will I save up for audio? I don't spend much of the money that they give me for allowance, so I've already saved up quite a bit. (~$650)

 

wow, you are really going to need to make critical desicions...like speakers or subs? if you have the bose pakage which you prolly do...i would go subs....

 

welcome dude...

be a bad ass and get a job!!!! lol

you're going to need the extra $$$

 

Tsk tsk tsk. Do your parents not care about you? My mom wouldn't let me have the 3.0 for my own saftey when I got mine. (My age lies on the profile)

Have fun with that car though, I wish I got that. I guess I'm just jealous. I'll stick with my 2.3 though, it's fast enough for me.

 

honour roll in grade 5...WTF, they had that shit in elementary

anyways, it seems like ur a good student so 1-2 days a week wont hurt ur grades, even on the weekends

 

whatever, they bought you a freakin' car! i would pull any shit...i am happy when my parents buy me a hamburger!

 

yea, we didn't have shit like that?????

 

Well, subs I cannot get partly because my friend's older brother flipped his tracker over a fence and my parents think the subs caused him to do that (i believe that he had 2 12").

Honor roll started in 6th grade. 5th and under didn't and still don't) have honor roll.

Huh? lol I have no clue what you're talking about

 

subs wont cause a car to flip, driver error causes it to flip

 

wow, just wow

first of all, that guy is an idiot...2nd of all, ur parents are blaming the subs

 

WELCOME TO THE 3.0 CLUB

 

i love this smiley

 

Yes, he can be stupid at times. Like when he punched it on a left turn when it was just starting to rain lightly(lots of oil on road and long time no rain), the tail let loose, he overcompensated, and we almost went flying into the guardrail.

Another time we drifted on gravel and almost flipped. Another time I hung onto the car as he gunned it. etc....I could go on lol

My parents think the subs distracted him or something

 

 

15.5 and has a 3.0.welcome you lucky sob.nice first ride.

 

Yes, yes it is. Fast too

 

good luck with it. love my 3.0. be nice to her its fast compared to a 2.x. as a 3.0 owner it is your right/duty to pick on and 2.x's

 

CHINY J WAS SAYING YOU SHOULD BE A BADASS AND GET A JOB, I SAY APPRECIATE WHAT YOU GOT, KEEP AT THE GOOD GRADES AND GO ON TO CURE CANCER OR SOMETHING.

 

OK, SWERVIN, WHAT DO YOU GO FOR A LIVING?

 

wow the honor roll, i havent gotten that since grammar school and i think i only got it once or twice. either way at 15 its still hard to find a job. i got lucky when i was 15 and even luckier at 17 when i got a job at a honda dealership.
