i see them every now and then..there's more & more done up CLs popping up around here lately though..

i need to get her back on the road to show these s what's up

I think that since there getting older more people can afford them.
Since I bought mine 3 people on my street did.

i see em alot, mine is ususally the only hooked up 1 though. saw 1 around here w/an exhaust, thats about it. In NY i've seen 3 of em, but that was way back when and i havent seen any of them since, so im basically the only hooked up 1st gen around

there's a hot chick down the street who just bought a 98 or 99 2.3, I can't tell.

My girlfriend would kill me,

And the chick has a BIG dad.

no, she's at least 18, I hope.

But he looks like the typical beer swigging corn fed redneck bubba type, and I don't fuck with those dudes daughters. He has a gun rack on his POS lifted early 80's Chevy, so I'm guessing he wouldn't like a Masshole chatting it up with his daughter.

But I always see her pulling in the driveway, or riding by, never at the store or anywhere else. Oh well.


Sooooo not worth the time.

It's just you, I rarely see CL's around maybe like once every 2 months... there's an old lady that has one 15 mins away from where I live but she doesn't drive it alot and it has like 270000kms I saw it at the dealer a few days after I bought mine...

its just the fact that you never really looked before. i never saw to manny CL's on the road until i got that car and started to get into them

its just like my friend with a trubo civic vanagon. until he bought one and did work to it, i never saw them on the road, now i see them everywhere. of course not boosted though.

I started noticing WAY more CL's after I bought mine. It's just something that didn't really cross my mind until I actually bought one. I see like one or two every day, depending on how much I drive. Sacramento has quite a few CL's around here.


BTW I got mine registered yesterday and got my plates. The car itself should be out of the shop with a fresh paintjob either by the end of this week or the beginning of the next. I'm psyched.

black_on_ack

i've always noticed them, they've caught my eye since i was a little kid, hnce getting one of my own

but yeah, there are a couple here in the 'peg, dropped, wheels, exhaust, h.i.d.'ed or whatever, it used to be just a few, but i'm starting to see more stockies around all the time, and i still drive around the same areas around town as i always have(read: fuckin everywhere)

i think it's due to those who bought them brand new aka old people aka baby boomers aka me in a couple years selling them or giving them to there kids, etc. and now hobo's like us are picking them up and dumping more money into them then they're even worth

and goddam bless us for doing so

long live 1st gen cl's

dragon084

the 97-99 CL has a horrible depreciation.

I hate the fact that I put ~10k into a car thats not even worth ~10k.

Its okay though.

The car looks like nothing else out there.

rawbeanz

haha i guess...its probably because the cars cheap nowadays....oh yea im in the norcal though...i guess

AznX TL

i dont know about your area....but first gens were still expensive when i bought mine, i looked at 3 of them and one had 112k 2.3 5-speed for $10k and a 99 3.0 with 60k for $12k..........and of course my pos
