New to the site
My name is Drew, and I've been searching around this site, and finally decided to join. It seems pretty laid back here, which is uncommon, because most of the sites I chat on, have a lot of drama and ethugs.
I recently bought a 1999 Acura 3.0 CL, 118k Miles, Tranny was replaced @ 110, and I must say it is a very, very clean ride. The car is pretty much bone stock, with the exception of a 12" JL W3, and 600 watt 4 channel Memphis amp. Not too many plans for it, My B16 CRX was just impounded a few weeks ago, so I'm not too big of a fan of putting money into cars anymore, hence why I bought this. Only real plans are tint, HIDs, and an Alpine headunit.
I've been into Hondas all of my life, I've owned 7 of them. Anyways, here are the pics of my new CL... comments welcome

I want your centercaps, you wanna sell them? Or does anyone know where I can buy some, I'm having some trouble finding that exact one as pictured above? You scared me at first, I was in another tab (tabbed browsing, ftw) and when I switched back to this I thought I was looking at my own car, even though it's changed and doesn't look stock anymore, I dunno whatever!!

Step 1 of owning a cl, get a tranny cooler & for you, get rid of the infinity cup! Welcome to the board hun, good to have a newcomer who has a new tranny - shouldn't be too many complaints for a while. Why 7 hondas though...good lord child, what the heck have you been doing to them???

how handsome I am
Clean man, real clean. That leather is impeccable. And yes, Drop her (even on stocks, especially those) and it'll feel completely different.
The mod bug is unavoidable bro. You're screwed lol..

thanks for the warm welcome,
as for the tranny cooler, as soon as I asked, I went out and popped the hood, luckily I did happen to find the cooler mounted, so thats a relief.
haha the infiniti cup is gone haha. As for the hondas, I've been swapping them, getting tired of them, and selling them. I've owned 2 EG hatches, 1 EK hatch, 1 EF hatch, CRX, and 2 Integras. They just dont really seem to do it for me anymore. Everyone and their mom here in Charlotte owns a hatch. I started looking at CLs when I first got my license, but they were way out of my price range. This is more of something that I can grow on, and look good doing it haha.
