Your Best Chance to take REVENGE from MSN Car Point

Your Best Chance to take REVENGE from MSN Car Point and their stupid, idiot, Automtive Journalist Daniel Heraud....

Is to go and rate your CL here @ MSN:

http://carpoint.msn.com/userreviews/...m=All&lang=All

So far the overall average is 8.3... Remind you that Type-S with NAV is getting straight 10.

Do what you can....

------------------
Black, Ebony, 3.2 CL Type-S.
- Acura NAV.
- 3M clear bra (full front bumper, and side mirros)
- Wheels locks
- Mooonroof visor
- Splash guards
- Winter mats
- Trunk liner
- Acura Spoiler
- Valentine V1 Radar Locator
- HELMS Service Manual
- PIAA 19169 road lamps

Yeh, you should check some of the reviews. I checked out the Acuras, Audis, and Lexis too. I don't know there is some funny stuff going on.

Check this review out:

Listen, I think the car should be rated a 10 too. But it is a little late:

Here is the math

there are about 200 reviews with an average of 8.3, if you add another 100 reviews that are all 10s, you will end up with 8.9.

I don't mean to bash the car but I have a 2000 RL also and anyone that gives the build quality of the CL a 10 should have there head examined! Every square foot on my car has paint flaws and no body panels line up well! Almost makes me feel like my car was repainted! There are plenty of good things about the car but these issues really need to be addressed!

Sorry, to be harsh, dude. But, wasn't that what I said? IN OtherWords, IF everyone who CAME to the site GAVE IT a 10, it would only go to a 9. You then quoted this very important bit of info I placed there, "(Assuming no bogus 0 raters come along)".

So, yes, thank you, I did get the idea that some people would not give a 10 *and* I figure that SOME people will not even give it a 5. (The Acura get-even bunch will go set it all to 0.)

Finally, I think that there may be a point where we will just start a fresh JIHAD with the other car folks.

So, yes, I get what your saying -- fully

Just posted my review. Gave it all 10's. Great car as far as I'm concerned. Then again, I'm coming out of the "Motor Trend Car of the Year for 1999- Chrysler 300M! I think I'd give KIA all 10's after that car! LOL....

Pros:
Everything you would love to have in a car for less than $32,000

Cons:
Paint job could be a bit better.

Overall Review:
Why look further, Do you have $32,000 get a Type-S with NAV, and you will be a happy guy. Acura NAV is the best NAV in the world. You say does not beat a 330Ci, nahhh drop in a $200 CAI, $999 Comptech headers and you get some 308 hp!!!! Dyno at the wheels to put 236 hp, 200 lb.ft of torque. At the drag strip is proven to do 13.9sec @ 99+ MPH. You say it does not handle like beemer in the twisties, nahh, drop it 1" ( Comptech Springs ) and plug those Comptech Sways for some $1,000 and you would kick the but of any 3 series below $45,000. Ever mentioned that michelin tires sucks, who cares, switch to UHP Summer tires TOYO Proxies T1-S for $600 and you are all set. keep the stock for the winter. Yeah, You drop $35k on this beauty, and keep 10 grand for the kids, he he he... ....Happy pilot.
