Random ass car whoring thread.

Jer, I used to work at a caddy dealership.. there was a constant flow of this model year coming in for repairs.. just some food for thought..

[accordguy04]

I just found this drawing online and I think Honda has to do EVERYTHING IN ITS POWER to make it happen.  This thing is sick!

I would pass on the Caddy too.  I doubt you'd be happy with it Jer.

Ryan, it all depends on what you actually want.  The Accord can be a great project car if you want the TL as a DD.  It all depends on whether you're going to be happy with the Accord as a daily or as a project car.  If you were going to build the Accord, I'd pass on the Comptech SC and have Paul build you his M90 SC kit instead.

If it were me, I'd keep my Accord and continue on it's path, get an 08 RL to leave basically stock as a DD/road trip car, and then get a S2K for a fun weekend car.

[accordguy04]

Nice. Lol.  Well as I like the RLs too, I want the TL cause I'm def a stick guy (giggity).  I haven't reached that lazy stage in life (not sayin you have) where I no longer wanna bother with a third petal. 

As for all three... we'll see how well I make out later in life.

I haven't mentioned that I want to stuff a K24 in the Fit and get a EK sedan or a DC2 to build up for a track car.

[accordguy04]

I want a J swapped prelude... wonder if anyones done it? hmmm...

My uncle had that body style CTS with the 200 hp 3.2L V6.  Fun car, but not really anything to write home about. This bigger engine might have changed my mind, but I cannot say, for sure.


So this won't be happenin any time soon, but I've been considerin my next car.  I'd like to hold onto the Accord, and once its paid off pick somethin else up.  I figure that by the time I'm ready (i.e. better job, accord paid off, home of my own) the 4th Gen TL 6MT's ('10 or '11) should be down to my price range.  I was considering getting one as a daily and projecting my Accord (aka finally getting the CT kit ).  But another thought popped into my head the other day thats always been there.  Keep the Accord as my daily and pick up a project S2k and probably get that Turbo jawn or an s/c.  Which do you guys think?  The S2k would def be cheaper to buy, but the mod bug would hit hard. lol.

s2k will not be cheaper to mod

[slipkord]

I can vouge for that

[gargantula99]

Relax there Madonna

[accordguy04]

Didnt say cheaper to mod, cheaper to BUY. lol.  I'll prolly end up gettin the TL.  I looked at a 3rd Gen 6MT before I bought my Accord, only found 4 6MTs within like 500 miles... and with every one, they were either just out of my price range or by the time I called they were gone.

I know what you said.  I read it correctly.

If I were you, I would keep the Accord as a daily and mod an s2k.  The TL would make a very nice daily though.

But it depends on the condition of your Accord and if you trust keeping it as a daily.

[accordguy04]

Uh... duh... Its a Honda with less than 100k on the clock

I haven't even hit 1/3 life yet. haha.  And I knew, that you knew, what I said.  I was just fuxin with ya.

[slipkord]

Going to bite the bullet and get a TL type S or 2009+ TSX or 07+ TL.

Been sick as fuck all day so been looking all day and lots of medical induced soul searching. All TL-S I can find are autos, how are those trans? I'm torn between them all but of course the type S is #1. Someone help me, either with my addiction of cars or find me a car.

All honda v6 auto trannies have issues dude. I'd say go with the tsx v6 6spd.

I know Hoover would be a long drive but I thought this looked pretty nice.
