I agree with you. it's none of their business. it astounds me that whenever you do something to your car that is of high value, someone has to ask, "how much is it.?" if you have to ask, you can't afford it. And to ask someone where they get their money from is just plain rude. it's just the way of society nowadays I suppose.

great car by the way.

i was just indirectly asking what kind of a job he has. im not trying to be mean or rude or anything. if two people are getting to know each other, they probably will know what kind of jobs each other have. its not rude imo. gosh, if its that big of a deal, forget i ever asked it.

I think your question was legit, just some people take it differently. He [probably] has sponsors of some sort. Plus, a good paying job helps. My friends ask me all the time where I come up with money: earn it with a good job + save it + spend wisely.

Your CL is very similar to a candy blue CL that i've seen. I must say you have done it right. Have you thought about a splitter and canards? Also was wondering if youll be showing at the HIN in Charlotte, NC on april 23. Ill have my TL there and would enjoy spending an hour or so staring at your car in person. Theres a chance you could win BEST ACURA.

I try not to take competing to seriously now days. In this industry it's very hard to compete with my car unless I plan on droping a few extra thousand dollars more on top of my car the way it is right now to even start placing at shows. For the most part I just show for fun and enjoy the scene, I try not to go out of my ways at time to attend car shows unless I really have to.

btw I think that Candy blue CL is not Candy blue anymore.....

Philly car show

Good to hear from you to. I still love that red type S!!!!

I look forward to the show and I will be wearing with pride the "AcuraZine hoodie"!

Why don't we start a new thread to get the group together for the show after we hear from Essarak.

Correct, making both sides of the diaphram at the same pressure at all times.
