I think the CL looks like a Solara. I often get them mixed up on the streets. Only main difference is that Solaras have bodykits..:X

I think those designers working for Acura are smoking some serious stuff... Damn, I think the style of Acura is going down hill. First it's the RSX, then the new TL.....

The MDX is pretty good thought.... let's wait and see what's gonna happen to the RL..

Hehe, thanks SLVR TL! The plan was to mod like crazy, and then stop cold turkey. End of May is stopping time! We'll see if I have the will power.
