Zapata

provench

Not only did you sucker me in to the thread - you lost me on what you are saying

soopa

ey bro... you need to lay off the wacky weed.

you do realize that in nearly every post youve made lately you have left people going "wtf?"

typeR

acura service said atleast twice in regards to the '03 cl 6mt "something wicked this way comes"...i dont believe he was just saying this car will be bad ass he's giving a big clue..."something wicked this way comes "was and advertising slogan for lexus and perhaps the something wicked they got is what we are getting

Zapata

i'm not tooo familiar with lexsus. WHat did they get?

typeR

i think if you read it the first post...and just realize the he is acura service it make sense...is it right ?not sure?but you should be able to follow what im saying...maybe not,my mind is like a steel trap ,i just cant get out...

Zapata

oh boy I realize the 6speed w/ more horse power and a body kit perhapes and might be making you giddy but come on now get it together

CO-CL-S

I think he lost it..

provench

Perhaps it is "No RES yet syndrome"?

spiroh

If acura_service was a true Acura-CL.COM brother he would of told us already. If you ask me he's just pulling your legs.

typeR

im not that excited...seriously...read the
page 2 l.a. auto show...

still page 2.page.4now im going back to read all of acura_services hmmmm responses

Zapata

A combination

provench

Yeah - I agree .... but then again maybe he has inside info and likes not getting fired

hmmmmmmmmm

provench

Yeah - when acura_service said that is about the time I grew more certain that it will come with a body kit standard ... probably with a slightly tweaked front end .... so add that to 6MT and probably 280 or 295 HP ... there ya go

typeR

honda canada just announced a civic sport package looks like a kit...springs sways and shocks..they say 4K worth of stuff for 2 k...maybe it's a kit,projector H.I.D.'s(taped headlights)springs,sways,shocks,and 18"wheels with bigger breaks all of the above is just dreaming,but,i guess we'll know soon enough...was the GS400 the first lexus with vvti ?the toyota version of i-VTEC????

BINGO...We have a winner !!!!

Looks like the Acura CL is being 'updated' to compete with a possible AWD Infiniti G35 6-speed manual coupe: http://www.zcar.com/forums/read.php?f=5&i=22853&t=22853

Zapata

wow, they are bringing the skyline here huh? Shit.....crap and all the rest, i think i'm going to faint. Do i stay with acura or do I go with the nissan?

IntegraVT

iTrader: (1)

So Acura's going to start selling GS430's?

Collective27

I think TypeR should be committed.

typeR

wow...you guys just wanna bag on me today...dont mistake my ,spelling ,typing errors with inteligence,or sanity...gs400 ...was it the first to use vvti????or even was it the first gs to use vvti...im thinking i-VTEC more and more...in addition to ,the above mentioned cosmetic add ons

Zapata

ivtec.....and increase in horse power. Hmmmmmm, yes, interesting.

EricL

THANK YOU -- or perhaps has some ethics and likes to keep promises.

Think reporters and confidential info...

TypeSAddict

I agree, acura service can't tell us, he kinda needs income, you know, to live It has nothing to do with being a "true acura-cl.com member"

Rod

Maybe a bump in displacement. The GS went from a 4.0 to 4.3 while leaving HP the same. The CL may be getting an 3.5L iVTEC.

acura_service

thank you, i sorta need my job to pay my lease payments
its only a few weeks till the la auto show, now everyone concentrate on Christmas - the suspense will be over in no time

typeR

ya "something wicked this way comes...." FOCKER!!!! you better never complain about doug and the mystery mod...you guys went to the same school of advertising

mrdeeno

i think you hsould make a new username w/o any info on it and post the news...no one would know who you really were.

provench

Well - there is a dandy idea !!

Is kahn_man really acura_service? The plot thickens

oonowindoo

<-------------- LOST.... what s going on..
i read through all 3 pages... i stilldont have a clue what u guys talkin about???
Especially TYpe R....

mattg

Type R, you are a crack head. what I got from what acura_service said is that we should prolly expect some cool shit from acura.....eventually.

city001

I think what he's getting at is... the ACURA serviceman...told him "SOMETHING WICKED COMES THIS WAY" for the 6 speed CL..
just like the Lexus commercials on the Lexus GS400-430

prob some big changes...who knows...
I am thinking it's the 6 speed....wider tires... with SEMA bodykit..
295 hp....and what else? minor changes?

city

provench

This is where I am at now too --

1) 280 or 295 HP (based on who you listen to - but a bump) ... not sure on torque (please bump Acura )
2) tweaking of front end
3) addition of standard body kit (SEMA like) for 6MT (hope it fits all models - be smart Acura)
4) bigger tires (hopeful - tighter suspension)
5) Of course - 6MT is a given

The rest of the stuff are just hopes ... but I think the above 4 are reasonable and within Acura's capabilities to help agressively market the CL to the 20-35 age group that it did not anticipate when originally targetting this car.

All I know is my CLS is about to get sold ... gonna save for 2-3 months ... then I get in one - WHATEVER it is ... I miss having a manual trans !
