Hey ziners... it's been a few months (probabaly more) since I last posted. I've had quite a few crazy adventures with my CL since then; including the most recent--and final--ride.
I was coming through an intersection two nights ago and there was a car coming up to it in the left-turn lane from the opposite direction as me. It was only us two on the road. The light was green for the two of us the entire time I'm driving up to it at about 60 km/hr, so he has to yeild to me before making his turn. VERY last second as Im cruising through the intersection, this moron decides to turn through it!! He drove RIGHT in front of me and there was no time to swerve around him. He was driving some mid-90's chev sedan (aka a tank) and...well... take a look for yourselves!











Now, I do have another CL, a 97 2.2 5spd, in pretty decent condition. So, I'm going to be using the insurance money I get from this accident and put it into making my other CL sexxxy. Black on white ftw? I think so!

 

glad you're okay man!

 

Thanks man, Im banged up pretty nice.. I didn't think my airbags worked because my SRS light has been on for some time, so as soon as I realized we were going to collide I just braced up really hard on my steeringwheel and brake pedal/floor so the impact gave me a pretty good jolt to the shoulders/ankles. Both ankles are sprained and my shoulders/neck is super sore, as well as the seatbelt mark that I've got going down my chest/collarbone. Besides that I'm alright, there was a crapload of glass in my arm/hand, thats what that outwards buldge in my windsheild is from; my hand blowing off the steering wheel when my airbags DID deploy, and smahing into the glass. Gotta love technology! hah

 

damn that looks really bad! thank god everything is alright. So you had 2 cl's and now you're down to 1?

 

Yupp, down to one. I'll have to make this last one count :p

 

any insurance money for injuries?

 

Holy shit man

I'm glad you are okay! Sore I'm sure.

Do you have any ideas on what you are going to do now? A new car coming your way?

 

Damn bro glad you're alright. Atleast you've got another CL sitting around so you're not car-less.

 

Wow, glad you're ok, CL

 

Yeah, thanks guys!
As for another car, it depends on how much I get out of the settlement. There's a pretty nice 97 prelude for sale around here, but I'm pretty partial to the CL's, so I'm like 90% sure I'm going to spend some money and paint/lower/sexify my other 97 2.2 CL

 

holy crap man, thats terrible! glad you're alright. any pics of the not-wrecked cl?

 

wow glad your ok man, rip to the cl hey at least you can part it out and make some moneys to fund the other cl and maybe not spend as much of the insurance $$$$$ cuz im sure to buy it back would be cheap. and remember man 10 and 2 on the wheel

 

wow
extremely glad ur ok. that a nasty collision.

 

holy shit the front end got fucked up. glad to hear your fine tho

 

Well to start off, im glad your ok, and second those seats in your car.. are sexy

 

they look like the factory's to me........

 

there black with tan in the middle? unless im just blind and have never seen stock ones like this?

 

i've seen a few like that here local might be a option

 

i think its just the light in the pics playing tricks on you. that wasn't a factory option.

 

Yeah definetly the light playing tricks on you man, they're factory grey! It does kind of look like that though in the picture..hmm, that wouuuulld be sexy

 

You might want to get some insurance cash from injuries, because it sounds like you suffered quite a bit. Way to keep your head up though, and it's cool that you've got another car ready to be modded! Although if I were you I'd buy a $500 beater/winter car as well.

Good Luck!

 

Yeah, I've also got a couple older civics lying around that I'll fix up into one decent one and beat that this winter I think. Which means, I have a couple options; sell my remaining CL and combine that money with the insurance money from car/injuries to buy maybe a 97-01 prelude, or another nice honda/acura, orrr, keep the CL and dump my incoming funds into it. Maybe one bad crash is enough for me and CLs? haha sooo much to think about!

 

^The latter for sure.

Glad you're ok man. It looks like you drove straight into a wall! Crazy.

 

Glad your good bro! 2.5TL rims on the car looked nice.

Its very hard to start a new project!Good luck man hope everything goes well down the road also.

 

Depending on how much you get from the settlement, I'd fix up one of your civics and use the insurance money + cash from selling the CL to get something better, maybe a 2g CL?
