CL newb
been wanting a new car for a while and have been looking very closely at the CL. what i want to know is, when looking to buy one, what do i need to keep in mind. i probably have around $12-$15k to spend for the car. after i got some more $$ to "hook it up". what do you guys recommend? also, i plan on putting in a sound system, getting some rims, maybe a drop, and some tints. again, recommendations are great

Drive the car over some bumpy roads as some have complained about rattles (in the rear deck, near the sunglasses holder, etc.) The moon roof will probably rattle but usually Acura can fix that with Teflon tape. I'd run all of the electronics (seats slide forward automatically for example, right side rearview mirror tilts in reverse ... those kinds of things).
Finally, you'd want to make sure the acutator is working. Do a search here and you can learn how to check it.
Good luck.
