Let me know about your new type S!

 

where in ny are you?

 

What do you want to know?

 

It works.

 

It plays catch with me in the park.

 

it's fast

 

I think I'll hold off on teaching mine to roll over.

 

Manhattan!

You guys have any suggestions on tint %.

I have a nighthawk/ebony and don't want the glass to be too dark.

Also want to remove the ACURA logo and Cl logo on the trunk and suggestions? Just the red type S lpogo on black should look hot!

Plan on eventually lowing any suggestions/ prefered manufacturers?

 

and oh by the way i'm pretty disappointed that I had to do without the 6 speed.....but it wouldn't do me any good in NYC traffic!

 

freddiedi,

Both the tint and debadging questions are very good ones and have been discussed quite a few times here. I'd suggest doing a search on either subject (2nd button from the right, up above), you'll probably find quite a bit of info on both topics.

 

Well, I can tell you that last weekend I took a trip to Naples, FL via State Rte. 80 through the sugar fields doing around 130 for a short time. What a rush! You can't do that in NY City.

 

why would you even want a car in manhattan??? you must make a lot of cash to be able to afford to

A. live in manhattan

B. drive a CL-S

C. insure a CL-S in manhattan

D. pay to park a CL-S in manhattan

wow, mad props to you and whatever you do

 

thanks for the help...actually I live i the city durig the week and go home and live with my parents on the weeked (They live in the suburbs)

 

You must have some kind of patience to work in NYC.

 

in case you don't feel like searching:

Most people here go with 35% sides and 20% back.

To debadge: Get the letters hot, either with a hairdryer, letting the car sit in the sun, or very hot water. Then take some dental floss and slice through the tape. Remove all the rest of the sticky stuff by hand or some have used some kind of goo-off. If you remove the "A" there will be two holes in your trunk.

 

Thanks for the info Danny!

I think I may go with 30% all the way around! I'm bringing the badging to a friend of mine who has an autobody shop..he'll be able to clean of the trunk better than i can....leaving the Acura logo and the small type s, removing the Acura lettering and the CL.

We can handle our own in NY...I think the hardest thing about or city or any city in that manner is that everything is supposed to happen now, no waiting no excuses...I guess you just get used to it if you grow up here!

 

The six-speed is a lot different than the auto

 

obviously the tranny is different and you have a manual parking brake as well as a different center console.

Anything else??

 

thanks for the info guys.....


Any suggestions on CAI/Ice Box..... I'm going to get 35% all round.... and debadging this weekend....
