lol check out this furious rice treat (sorry if its yours)
While shopping for an orange CL, I came across this and lmao. I'm trying to imagine when/where this would be cool, maybe 10 years ago in some places. Sorry again if it's yours.

take off the body kit, the obnoxiously :ghey: paint, the park bench, the fake hood scoops, replace the steel floor with carpet, and get rid of that orange trim and the car would have a spec of potential.

Yeah it's a joke right now. If it has the mods that it claims, it would be an okay track-only car. but even then, I would gut the inside completely.
Trying to bring it back to it's luxury glory would be almost impossible at this point.

stated in the FS ad:
"this is a ex show car from 2003-05 had 30+ grand in at the time.
it was driven the last two years as a driver and the this year was being recondition for show and go to road curse race it. not the las 8 months it had well over 10 grand put into drive tran new h22 block and head and all internail parts over 6000 in engine alone had the trans rebuilt over 2000 in it alone. it has list of short list here1997 Acura CL 2.2. v-tec engine has less than 5000 miles on it. This is a very nice vehicle with lots of extras. used to be a show car. it has a/c power sunroof and everything works no radio.This car has R-1 Racing bucket seats, diamond plate floors, carbon fiber trim, Apex V-AFC 2 controller, R-1 Racing wing (carbon fiber), carbon fiber pillar gauges, HKS cold air intake, racing spark plugs and wires, HKS blow off valve, Pro Speed header, high flow catalytic converter, dual exhaust, full polyurethane body kit, The motor has been completely rebuilt from top to bottom, it runs like a brand new one (very fast). Hood does have minor damage. A truck backed into the hood can be fixed easy not much damage done to hood only. Car also has a couple spots were the paint is starting to chip.The engine has over 5000 dollars alone in it. it has a lot of hard work and money invested.it has cross drilled rotors and this list goes on you would have to see it so much new stuff battery it will come with nice set of 16" on the car in the picture and a sey of 18" icw rims goes with it. this a car that will make money will need a fresh tuneingnot ran tell recent. call me for pictures and anyinfo" has been garaged for a time
^^^^i'm going to analyze this shit. the parts that i bolded & color coded purely show that this guy has not invested 30k in this thing and has no idea what he is saying. his grammar skills obviously ended in 5th grade. he stated that he has an h22 block/head, and then shows us that the car is the 2.2. (which he says is "very fast" LOL) Also, anyone who has ever said "this used to be a show car" needs to be shot. If it has so much $$$ into it, where the hell did the radio go? into all that expensive carbon fiber style wrap? LOLZ. And an HKS BOV huh? wheres the fucking turbo & piping for this BOV you speak of? what else....oh yea, dual exhaust. Thats quite gay if the car didnt come with that oem. ICW's are gay..easy as that. and oh yeah...and he spelled vtec like "v-tec."
/end of rant.
if my car had vents all over the hood, camoflauge painted doors, red leather interior, and brown tint...it'd be a "unique ride" too. but the fact that there's nothing tasteful about that...just like posted car, is what makes it far from cool. i mean, even when the F&F trends were cool, this thing still would've missed the mark.
not with that stock ass suspension, shitty brakes, jerry-rigged harnesses/seats, transmission, etc.

lol! Jared's post for the ultimate win! Well put, and all my thoughts exactly. I think the previous owner just watched all the Fast n Goofiest movies all in a row and went crazy. You're right about it not being a good track car with those issues. It would most likely blow up from bad installations anyways.
How many more of these space shuttle wings do we need to see on front wheel drive cars. Hint: these wings do actually create significant downforce on the back end above 80mph and alot above 100. That's great if the driving wheels are in the back. It's physics really.. they sell physics books on ebay too but nowhere near the wing section unfortunately. I loved the randomly placed stick-on "vents" on the rear quarter panel too. I can't wait to get hit in the windshield during a race when one of those stick-ons flies off someones car at 100.

an NX 2000 is a funny little car that Nissan made for a short time. I've probly seen less than 20 ever, I don't think they were popular. They were ugly, I remember that. It kinda looked like the short lived egg-shaped Mazda MX-3.
Ok after a little googling, the NX 2000 was based on the Sentra SE-R engine and platform, which means it did have some performance potential. Maybe they just weren't popular because they were ugly. From the back they look okay.
