[CL9][CU2][+] How long are you planning to keep your Euro?

[ryaan]

The CU2 under steers and torque steers when pushed and if people are buying the car thinking that you are buying a sports sedan then you haven't driven anything else.

For me its a company rep car and does the job of a daily driver and lung stuff around. Full stop. My choice was either an Accord Euro or a Toyota Camry Hybrid. We got a killer deal from Honda as the company purchased 12 x Accord Euro and Accord V6. I wish I was higher up in the food chain so I will get the V6.

My Euro auto with leather interior and 5 year warranty we got it for WAY below $30k each.

wow.. thats damn cheap ! can make a profit from that ! haha

I dont get the fad with FT/GT86.... IMO it isnt pretty, isnt that fast, and I personally dont see it being anymore enjoyable that a Miata to drive.

I know it should be a turning power house but as turbo goes looks like 12psi is the max without having to tear the engine apart http://www.examiner.com/article/perf...and-subaru-brz

there were 4x 86's on the N-ring 24 hr endurance race a few days ago (like 2 days ago), they arent that fast, but good pit action did see then win the V3 class.

it's not even out yet, and there is more aftermarket parts available for it than CU2 lol!

Honda sucks arse.

Trying to get rid of mine now.. only had it for 7 months. Hate having an auto its slow as anything and the fuel consumption is terrible! Its completely stock standard low k's, full honda service history.. and I get less then 400k's out a tank babying it on BP 98 octane! My manual 2006 CL9 Lux was unfortunately written off but there was noticibally more power in the manual and far better fuel consumption. Wanting to update to a CU2 lux Manual!

Yep, record your radio stations first.


Ps: CU2 manual... Not as fun as you think/

I've had my 2005 CL9 for roughly 6 months now, loved driving the car when it was a manual. A few months ago I put in a very low km engine and automatic gearbox in the car. Drives very smoothly and is quite nice as a daily, but the auto box is quite slow and a lot worse on fuel than the manual. I'll probably try and sell it in the next few weeks and hopefully replace it with an R.

With my Euro, whether its on V-Power, BP Ultimate, Caltex 98, or United 100, I usually get 500km.

EDIT: The car is completely stock, runs an 06 K24A3 Auto with 43XXXkm.

I get 550 ish on city cycle, but mine is modded for more low rpm oomphand runs on synthetic. *shrugs*

Like my CL9. When I feel down, I get out of my commodore (free car) and get into the CL9. No need to brake for corners and love the bitey brakes. Power is about the same as the commo but the sound is so much nicer.
