So I was out riding today and came across this.I think we need to fight back and start modding are cars with brush breakers before were instinct. Peeled open like a can of sardines. DAMM

 

Here is a lesson!!!!! Damn that is scary though for any of us...be careful out there guys....Keep the rare ones with LOVE

 

still drivable though

 

They didnt mod their car enough thus not making them stand out thus they were hit by someone that did not know they were there......thats the only reasonable explanation. jk But seriously it makes me want to make my car out of tank armor too bad the transmission can't take the extra load

 

It's only a CLP (look at the rims)... and it's at a body shop (sign says express estimates), so they'll fix her right up...

You guys have to realize that these cars are old now. They are cheap, and people with little driving experience are buying them. They are going to get cracked up...

 

Your grammar/spelling are horrendous.

 

Read the rules:

https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-cl-2001-2003-50/posting-rules-guidelines-please-read-718919/

You've actually have broken 3 rules here, but I'll let you figure out the other 2...

 

So sad.....just breaks my heart to see what the younger crowds are doing to the once classy CL line!

 

^^ Cosign

 

I just traded in my CL S 6spd.

I hope something like this doesn't happen to it.

 

yea, seems like this is happening to a lot of CLs these days...

i just left mine in the parking lot of town tire and loved the way it stood out, even among BMW's, newer cars, etc. it's definitely unique (especially with the TL kit )

 

 

I havent been driving for that long... almost three years and never had an accident (knock)

 

We cant correct people's grammer/spelling/punctuation anymore lol

 

read the rules or...


But damn, so many 2nd gen CLs punished... There was a 1st gen member that just hydrolocked his engine. CAIs ftw! That's about all this year though.

 

you're preaching to the choir

 

+1, I had to read it a few times to figure out what he was trying to say

 

I say F the grammar and drive safe........

 

i have a 2001 Black CL-S and this thread got me thinking......wow my car is 8 years old now! I fly planes and usually a jetliner isn't considered "old" until like 15-20 years.

Although I have a 1993 Camry that still is great, with no replacement of usual parts that wear with age, like rubber belts, hoses, etc

Hope the CL can hold up!

 

compared to the camry? naw, that thing is a tank. my mom's 92 is still going with 220k on it. only replaced AC compressor, shocks and torque mount.

 

220k its only a baby I got 395k off my 96 jeep

 

The CLs are as cheap as Integra GS-Rs were when I was shopping around for one 9 years ago. The age bracket is decreasing rapidly since these cars are becoming more affordable.

 

why are you OLD guys blaming the younger people on this forum when if u look at the last 4 crash threads 3 out of the 4 werent the CL owners fault.

 

I like how BigLizard thinks he's "old" lol

and i bet the guy crashed becuz he was stairing at the x2 spoiler

 

You live in canada right?
I think you mean "k" for kilometers. He means "k" for thousand

 

You got that right...........

 

@ OLD

Kiddo, I NEVER once said I was "old."

 

^ haha right, I forgot your not old enough to be my daddy lmao

 

Bye CL-SA they locked your other thread

lol

 

yup. or 355k kilometers

 

^^^aznboi, he hasn't given me a reason to.

Don't know why you think that is funny, but w/e floats yer boat I guess.

Well I guess if you wanted to play make believe I could be, and you'd be my red headed step child.

 

On another note, lets keep this thread on track.

 

Whoa some heavy moderation lately.

Anyway, I don't think that the CL is as "endagered" as you guys say it is. I'm sure a lot of younger guys are buying Tegs or civics not CL

 

Airbag deployed.

Thats sad. And I've got ask...

How the hell???

 

damn, i just saw that.

its still drivable though lol just stuff it back into the steering wheel

Lizard: i meant banned for calling you old lol just joking

 

You're making an argument over the past 4 crash threads...

I've formed my opinion based on what I've seen here over the past six and a half years... and on the insurance rates charged for age groups.

We NEVER saw crash threads when these cars were basically new (I joined in Aug 2002)... now we seem to see them once or twice a week...

Sure the last few have been drunks or rearend crashes, but there's been a lot more over the past couple of years that were clearly the CL drivers fault.

I'd love to hear a better reason for why the cars are getting wrecked more ??

If you don't think that people under 25 are more apt to get into car accidents, then I'm not going to try to explain it to you.

There's a reason why your auto insurance goes down when you turn 25, but I'm sure you won't believe the insurance actuaries either because they are probably old too...

 

Yep... We're glad you noticed

 

^ moderators! lol

 

lol i know. i always kiss Ron A's ass when i PM him. like call him Ron Awesome or something

 

considering its now 2009, and this very thread we're posting in was created in 2009, i assumed that it was made in reference to the many RECENT crash threads (not the past 6 years). I simply pointed out that the 3/4 that i could find in the first few pages of the CL forums weren't the cl owners fault, regardless of age or "generation".

and aznkid, if i was banned from this site, for whatever reason, im sure id live, but thanks for your slick comment
