It's no photoshop, and no bs. It someone who isn't talking about the supercharger, it's someone who HAS it.

that new CL-S may make slightly less power than a S/C 3.0 first gen, BUT you have a brand spankin new car, 6 speed tranny, full warranty, etc....i wouldve just traded for a 6 speed...either way, im sure that S/C is nice on his car and props to him for going that far into a first gen CL for some juice!!

Not to be a hater, but his 98 3.0 CL (w/o mods) is probably only worth $12,000, a new Type S stock is what.... $32,000....so on a trade he would have to come up with $20,000....so $4,000 for the supercharger seems resonable to me and
the truth of the matter is the First Gen CL is a lot better lookin car than the 2nd Gens

Thanks for the flames & comments!
I went the SC route basically because I didn't want to spend at least $15 to upgrade to a new car. Performance wise, the CL-S is better only by relative slight margin. If I were spend money now to upgrade to a nicer car, it would have to be in the M3 or CLK-500(or 55)category. Otherwise, it's not worth it for ME, others may think otherwise. Looking at the economy & job market now, it wouldn't be wise to do so.
Besides I like the uniqueness of the 1st-Gen CL!
If u don't believe I have it, come to Englishtown Acura Wars in NJ on saturday 11/16.

Thanks for repeating what I just said it is much more clear now
..............spend 4-5K on a supercharger or 20K on a CL-S 6spd that is stock. I don't know about you, but I didn't have that extra 15k laying around last time I checked
