TRADE!!!! that car is fucking sexy as hell, looks absolutely pristine, and you can get rid of your CL before your tranny goes out! Test drive it n check it out. If its a good car in person, id trade in a heartbeat

Why do you want to downgrade cars? That thing is small, not any of the luxury of the CL, & it's old & messed with.

idk idk.
that teg is clean as hell, but its interior is nowhere near as nice or plush as ours, its already on its second owner now, and an 01 CLS in good condition with your mileage is def. worth more than $12.5k

you would downgrade a beautiful CL for a 10 year old teg with 90k miles? granted that the paint looks brand new, im not a big fan of the integra unless its the type-r

definetely a clean and well-done integra, but trade a CL-S for it? no way.

a car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. a stock CL-S is worth way more than that teg, unless you find someone willing to buy a car like that... i definetely wouldn't do it.

hmmm, very clean teggy

it really depends on you and what you want...do you want the comfort and luxury of your current CL, or that more race inspired look and feel with the teg...but i'd say the cl is still a pretty fast car IIIIIITS UUUUP TOOOOO YOOOOOOOOOU! good luck

IMO dude i think its crazy to go from a 01 cl to a 97 integra. i mean i use to drive that shit like when i was in high school. one of my friend still has one and i ride with him time to time and it feels so cheap to ride in it even though i have a 2000TL.

I'd rather have this: https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/if-only-i-had-%2418500-me-right-now-fs-1998-itr-4300-miles-348131/

Since I missed this thread last nite, I'll let it go, but it really should have been posted in cartalk... Integra != 2G CL.

If this turns into a integra lovefest it gets the lock... Remember, this is the CL forum, if it's not about a CL (yeah, I know it's a trade the CL for xxx thread) it goes in cartalk...

Its a clean teggy don't get me wrong.Its a clean swap looks in good condition. Do what u want but i wouldn't do it.Can't stand those ricer tin can soundind mufflers. U should'nt down grade to an integra. In my opinion that tranny prob i think is a little exagerated.Some cars i see have problems and others like mine 68,000 miles still on first tranny.So if i was u keep the cl cause luxury and the ride quality is jus uncomparable.Nice car but not for me.O yea about the tranny dont know ur situation but jus givin my opinion.

I wouldn't trade my beater for that.

Secondly, a car is worth what it is worth... Sure, maybe someone that is a little looney might pay $12,5 for that but according to NADA, that car isn't worth a penny more than $6,700. I don't car how much work went into it. It's not nearly as nice as the CL, it's got (well parts of it does anyway) 90k miles on it, and it's 9yrs, almost 10yrs old now. No way.

CL > old ass, "messed with", teg...

Like 609 said...he's young and he's probably into the ricer cars now...something that gives him a little something....but the only probably is you'll regret it when you get older and start wanting luxury again...

it wasnt a strait up trade, he threw in a lil bit and threw in sum parts like carbon fiber hood and oem honda pads and type R sway.

well heres the go down, the motor is nice, and swap is done with polyurthane motor mount... but the car needs a lil work.. the radaitor for the car is still a 1.8 Integra LS radaitor... so it needs to be upgraded.. and brakes r still stocked.. that needs to b upgraded.. and i feel the clutch is bout to go... so i guess new clutch soon... but besides that, everything else is

sad to say but this car will take a CLS like nothin
609 is rite i guess im still young.. but U got a SI llike that too hahah well tnx for all the great comments

Crazy, that was my brothers old car. Shit was known back in the days. I still have some of his trophies in my room, lol. Believe it or not, that car used to be an automatic LS and was silver. The car was painted at JC Autobody and is still looking good after like 5 years. It was in it's best around Import Expo 1. Good luck with it.

Your car is worth more then a moded car that you have no idea how it has been driven. Sell yours then buy his is a better idea.
