*sigh* And you WONDER why us import racer ethusiasts get such a bad rep as aggressive drivers etc....
Come on guys...grow up. Just because you own a CL-S doesn't mean you're God's gift to the road. You don't own it and you gotta share it with others.
Personally...as long as they are NOT in the left lane where I'll be traveling at warp speed...I don't care much about the other drivers. There's absolutely no need to pick on other folk's rides like tailgating them etc...especially if they're not trying to race you.
Just feel lucky she didn't call the cops on whomever did this. VA cops are being VERY fanatical about charging EVERYONE they catch with reckless driving, aggressive driving, speeding etc. And from what I've heard, the traffic judges these days are not very forgiving.

dude, i'm not tryin to start shit, but I own a cl-s and i do NOT think i am god's gift to the world, nor do i think i owe the road...i think this chick is just paranoid and accusing all cl drivers of tailgating her...i get tailgated and cutoff everyday by all types of cars....and i do agree w/u about how VA cops are dicks about giving out tickets to everyone...i got one 2 weeks ago adn i'm hoping the judge will be cool, but i doubt it.

Just today, I was tailgated by a woman who was either a very poor driver or just could not wait to get to work. I wasn't driving the CL-s today but she was weaving in and out of traffic and on my ass the last couple of miles on Rt 28 and severl times down the Dulles Toll Road. There are a lot of horrible drivers in this area they aren't all CL-s drivers.

Hi DC et al. CL owners. I have just joined the ranks!!! Have driven a 1990 Acura Legend coupe 5 speed since it was new and just bought my new CL-S-Nav. in Aegean blue/ebony interior and totally LOVE it!! I have yet to hit 100 miles since I just got it yesterday, drove home from Pokanka to Bethesda and then at midnight drove around the neighborhood 8 or 9 times.
I can't get this huge smile off my face!
Sweet sweet sweet - and love the color (and the nav. and the interior and....and ...and). Need I say more??!!
Rustito plus CL-S-Nav. Aegean blue/ebony

hey guys, I don't think anybody is being accused. I think what he is trying to say is that not everybody wants to race. I don't think he's saying that everybody here is a bad driver, but typically CL especially type-S drivers are a little more aggresive than most. the same message could be posted on any car forum out there. It doesn't mean just the CL forum. This just happens to be an easy way of saying maybe slow down a bit. Don't get me wrong, I love to fly low, but there is a time and place for everything. if somebody wants to race you, you'll know it. On the interstate in traffic is probably not the place.
BTW, if there is anybody here that tries to piss off IS300 drivers it's probably because you're scared of a little competition and maybe even a little jealous that they got more support and popularity than we did.
