The new ride....





Daylight wasnt in my favor. Picked it up thursday night. There are minor things i have to address, some paint i want touched up mostly, but all in all it seems the previous owner took car of it well.

As far as mods go, the little things first - next week it scheduled to be tinted - not sure how dark im gonna go.
Ive got to install my system from my previous car.
Then i need to get it lowered and shortly thereafter buy wheels.

It will seem like a slow process to me, but im gonna try my hardest to get it done quick.

No fucking way.. do you know how rare your car is? White/Ebony 6 speed is the rarest CL-S, only one i know on the board. Someone will chime in with the number of these produced, but its very little. SWEET!

to be honest, i was lurking the boards the day after i put the deposit down when i came across how rare the color/option combo was - so it brought a smile to my face - but quite honestly when i began my search i had the anthracite in mind and the one i inquired about was sold -

white was my second choice, so i went and bought this one.

I might have waited longer to find another - but ive been searching for a car for near 6 months and one day i just got frustrated and told myself i would buy a car that day.

yes it is, those freekin red calipers stick out like a sore thumb, have to repaint when i get the chance.

Its kinda irks me about the ebay thing - i saw the car in autotrader, and all the while ive been looking on ebay but it seems most sellers list their cars as automatics even if they are M/T - ive only been filtering my searches on ebay for manual trans.

Ebay doesn't allow an option of Manual, I guess they were never informed there was a manual version of the CL. Mind if I ask how much you paid?

By the way, don't repaint the calipers. Just get the Endless BBK

nice color combo, have fun modding her too. How many miles? nothing beats driving such a classic, everything you could need in a car, sport, luxury, sleeper looks, navi and 6MT.

Keep it all stock and don't drive it, Maybe 50 years from now it will triple in value.
