ya, but it's actually a real clean car if you look at it. No big ugly body kit; or big cheesy wing. It's basically stock, w/ a lil front spoiler and side skirts. It's very subtle and well put together. And it's not just fast, it's DAMN FAST!!!!


but honestly how does it look rice? does my CL look rice? because it basically has the same mods, it's lowered w/ rims.

Looks good if you want to race. I'd much rather look good in my CL-S (and still go fast!)

Why dont you buy a Camaro SS or a WS6 Firebird if it's all about the speed. Those are the best bang for the buck deals when it comes to buying an engine and nothing else.

because it's not all about speed, check his suspension mods. besides, it's clean.

anything that's not by comptech is considered rice, you should know that by now scott.

anyways, what about the crx?

okay, you must not of read he want's 15,000 on a motor that was rebuilt a 1000 miles ago. Which used to run low 13's on n20 w/ street tires. And now has alot more horepower and is probally capable of low 12's high 11's (maybe) w/o n20. I think that blows the doors off a camaro

actually thats the thing, the rebuild was 1000 miles ago, and he doesn't drive it much. Hasn't even shown it the track. The turbo was just put on. So it's in fairly good shape. And honestly what car hasn't been run hard?

Why would you want to step down to a car that will be considered obsolete when the RSX comes out. Personally I like to have the newer things and customize it myself.

well it's a race car, and i'll track it on the road courses so thats why the interior is needed. I guess you could call that a fart pipe? but i've seen alot bigger on all the aftermarket exhausts on the CL's here. And those rims well, there BLITZ; can't get them no more, could probally sell them for 2g's. And also; 15K is still under blue book w/o the mods. It's only got like 50K on it. But i'm not gonna do it, just throwing out defenses.

Very true about running hard on cars.

I kinda like it...really used to seeing fixed up integras, and that one is not all that rice. Its really nice...if you were to go for it, would it mean getting rid of the CL?

personally, that integ. has been fixed up pretty clean and does not look rice...looks like everything on the car is more for go rather than rice show...he's probably spent near or over 10K on the mods...whats the location of this car anyways? the only minus is the fart pipe...would be a fun car anyways

California. ANd yes the car is a steal and a half. The blue book is like 17K, then 2K for the rims, and about 1500-2K for the turbo setup, you've already made a ton of cash, not counting all the other shit inside it. He's pretty high up in the car industry. And actually is an editor for velocity magazine.
