EVO IX vs. 01 Acura CLS supercharged automatic

Just thought you guys might be interested in what they have to say over at Acurazine.com,........my old forum,.............I tried in m limited time on here to set the record straight, but I guess I shouldnt have traded in the CL for the EVO, the CL is the car to beat apparently........

Its good that others on the board are letting the guy know his kill was due to driver error. If I were in his situation after spending serious change on a automatic car..I would celebrate every win I could too...wouldnt you??

Personally I respect the CL-s for what it is....Business with a little ummph

Yeah, I used to have one too with headers, intake, sways, springs, 18x8 lightsweight SSR wheels, 6 speed manual. SuperCharger would have been nice, but too much $$$$$, and still wouldnt handle or perform to what the EVO can do with less $$$$. He's got an automatic, subs, and 20" chrome wheels slowing him down too.........

the CL-s belongs with the srt -4 if i was to take that acura forum seriously....who races from a roll and brags about winning? Racing from a roll proves almost zero...

but seriously why does everyone envy what we drive and try to rub it in our face every chance they get when they know what the strengths and weaknesses our cars have.

happens on every car forum. Evo's always get in the competition and usually it gets beat . it's good though, it shows that the Evo is the benchmark right now. of course i'm not including crazy cars like certain porsches, ferraris, lambos etc. but u know wut i mean.

cl-s outhandles the evo? please...
