[Introduction] Hello Acurazine Community

I'm Jay and have been an avid car enthusiast who fell in love with the Acura CLS6 ever since I found out about the car in 2002...

For the past 12 years or so I never quite got around to buying one (unaffordable and other poor decisions) In between I mingled with some Dodge SRT-4's, Accord AV6-6's, even an 06 modded Pontiac Goat...but none of those cars were a CLS6.

I've been a long time lurker of this forum...up til now.
So one day destiny and I were finally able to bump heads...and as fate would have it: I've found her.

[Introduction] Hello Acurazine Community-gb06mol.jpg

As luck would have it the car only had one owner and he was just as OCD/Meticulous as I am. The car was literally in a hermetically sealed vault or something

I plan on doing a multitude of mods:
-Android Tablet Nav Screen (or)
-Possibly use a TL Nav Unit (if possible)
-Custom Exhaust System

-RWD Conversion (just kidding) haha

Anyway I can't wait to learn from you all and share information about our cars. Hope to see you around.

Thanks! I intend on brushing up on every tidbit of information that I can....I know most people say they're going to mod their CLS's but this time it's for real!

I knew that question would come up! Haha
Even though she is a bit rarer being 1 out of 15...
Spoiler Alert: There's a 3 between the 1 and the 5

Savannah's rockin some parchment instead of ebony but I instantly fell head over heels once I popped open the hood and found this "little" gem not disclosed in the dealer ad:





I don't think I've ever felt this way about a car before and without trying to sound like a complete douche nozzle;
Each and every time I turn her over I fall in love all over again, again and again. She drives better than when I test drove the first brand new CLS6 in Cali back in 2002!

I'm happy after 12 years I've finally made my way over to the dark side and can't wait to start (more) modding!

That...is a nice sig you got there!
I can only imagine what my car would feel
like with 3 times the boost

I can't imagine driving anything else.
I plan on modernizing the interior a little with
some different plastic, higher quality headliner
and a newer updated climate control system.

I think she's perfect as is...but I want a 7inch
tablet install with a more computerized AC...

Hi. She has 115K and has a full Comptec Package
minus the exhaust (this will be shortly remedied) lol

Tuned (as is) to be very conservative/streetable (for now)

Thank you G. It's probably a little too clean but when you have OCD issues every little spot seems to count.

Let's make this interesting Here's the asking price:

What do you think I paid and what would you have paid?

If you decide you want ebony interior then I've got nearly everything you'd need in my parts car. My friend is helping himself to the seats for his '98 Accord but they were wrinkled on the side bolster of the bottom cushion anyway. Just putting it out there since I'm so close.

hey, how's the CL been? mine is still in storage from the winter which seems never ending here. i might call and get it on insurance today actually.

It still says you can't receive PMs or you've chosen not to.
