Different cars... but I'd take the CL for more lux

I'm 6'4" and I fit well in my Integra.


I think you should chose your car based on what you want to get out of it.

i'd take the CL if you want something more unique, and have no plans to modify it. the sad thing is, the insurance will probably be cheaper than an integra.

I'd get the CL. Make sure the timing belt was replaced. If not, make them do it before you buy the car...or take the price of the timing belt job off the sticker price.

Wow, the move really helped. First off, thank you all for the advice!

I'm leaning strongly to the CL now.

I noticed you said the aftermarket scene was bad for em. All I'm looking to do immideatly is Intake. Once I get more money, it'll go for headers and/or exhaust. I'm also interested in a sway bar in the future as well for added support.

Am I assuming correctly that these items will be easy enough to find?

On the CL, how is the steering?
And what style are the front seats?
I enjoyed the buckets in my galant much more than the flat style in the Grande Marquis I learned on.

Sorry for the noobness here. I'm completely new to everything Honda/Acura.

Is there a serious problem with them? and what is the general cost of the timing belt?

go ask to test drive the CL. I'm assuming the steering and the front seats are both more luxurious and smooth than that of the GS-R.

Well not really, but a good time to replace the timing belt is at 100k, because if they snap, your engine is fucked.
