Next summer?



Alright so ive been thinking and thinking on what to do for next summer.

I was going to go all out and finish the CL with everything... Black glossy roof, gunmetal paint, WW front lip, rims,exhaust,headers,intake everything...I was going to put it away this winter and start working on her but I sold my winter beater to some sucker lol


Ever since I sold my integra (beater) i dont want another beater im just going to drive the CL in the winter once again. With a tiny bubble thats forming I no that the rust will only spread worse and other places.


So for next summer what should I get:

1) Acura MDX-2002-2005
2)Honda CRV-2001-2005
3)Acura TL-1999-2003(same shit with the CL(money pit))
4)Honda Accord 2003-2005


Im really wanting a Small SUV i think....let me know what you guys think i should do cuz my parents keep saying the same thing...do what you want.

Are you planning to keep the CL or get rid of it for the suv? If you're leaning toward an SUV, I'd say the CR-V is a good economical choice. Having looked at MDX's when I was looking at SUV's before buying my 4Runner, used MDX's are ridiculously expensive compared to other used acuras like TL's, so with that in mind, I'd suggest either the CR-V, or a Rav-4. Then MDX, then accord, then TL.

just keep the CL and use the money you wouldve spent on an SUV to mod the CL more. and if the rust gets too bad, you've got the money to fix it. just my

Wow alot of different feedback...I found that a 2001-2003 MDX isnt as expensive as I thought, also I get $4500 off any price over $15000 because my brother is manger of Acura.

And if I buy a truck im getting rid of the CL.

yeah thats nothing when you live at home with your Parents.

Black glossy roof and GUn Metal paint? Can someone photoshop that? WOuld look even decent?

you are leaning towards an SUV go ahead and get the CR-V like 97blackack said. Save money and travel if you can.
