No rumors, no word, just Honda/Acura's usual total silence...

No one knows for sure (if they do they ain't telling), but there have been hints here and there if you've been listening close enough. Check out the model matrix at vtec.net:

http://vtec.net/modelmatrix/

For 2007 they list in the CL's spot in the line up "New model replacing CL with FR/AWD (see unnamed Sportscar below)" ~$40-50k pricerange, sub NSX

I don't know what that means, but a ~40-50K price range leads me to believe that there might be a 2 door version of the RL around the corner (2007).

My CLS 6spd will be 5 y/o then, so if it's interesting enough (AWD with 300+ Hp and built in Japan), I might be looking at trading the CL in

Get a civic, you are only 16 and already totaled a TLS.

ooofff...

I didn't check the age... Nice catch Sellout...

Maybe a late 80's Delta 88 or Caprice (big chrome metal bumbers) would be a better idea

Hey man, I had an Enzo when I was 16. Well, that was after I tore up my Lambo. Seriously though ... it would be so damn nice to have rich parents.

I know it's hella unlikely, but maybe he worked for it, one way or the other? I was 18 when I bought my CL-S all cash, my own money. Benefit of the doubt for this kid?

But no CL type thing coming out anytime soon so maybe you should go with something else. Or get a 6MT 2003 CL.

Either way, if he worked for it or if his parents give him money, good for him! I don't hate on anybody with money no matter how they get it. That is, as long as they don't lie about it.

I wasnt hating on who bought the car. Im hating on the fact that hes 16 and totaled a 260hp car. That should be a sign to take a driving school or get a slower car!

Slower car = TSX He should be able to keep that on the road for a few years.
