Drove a 1997 Acura 2.2 CL from late 2006 to early 2012 (about 90-170k miles). It was a 5 speed manual, grayish-tan exterior that was almost a weird rose/iridescent. I had that car through the tail end of highscool, all of college, and the early post grad life.

Just saw that Mashable has some additional info. around tech, features, dealer model, etc.

This is quality Jalopnik.

Ew.

Same. Oppo author on rare occasion as well - still Jalopnik gray!

Yes. Immediate thought.

The driver was out of his Element.

Something about this car. I officially love Mercedes again.

I’m normal with ya, but this car is freaking 10 years old (2006 model year likely bought in 2005, right!?). I’d drive the shit out of it, but this thing won't even qualify for UberX soon because how old it is.

I believe it engages some sort of fake engine breaking effect. Useful for slowing down and a little extra battery charge when going down big hills, etc.

DOUG! They’re dangerous! http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_…

This is both well thought out and frightening (for our future). Oh, and can I get un-greyed? Thanks.

What’s the new ‘hood?

I'd be interested in seeing a Pajun...

Do you think there’s a chance that they put 2 + 2 together with the last name and they saved themselves from potentially being featured in a negative light on Jalopnik?

I like how you point out the color in Crack Pipe option. White works or it doesn’t - it doesn’t here (for me). You run the risk of looking like a Florida retiree or someone driving a fleet car. Okay, okay, this is a sweet and beautifully maintained M3 - I know, but...boring.

NP. Sure, it’s a hand me down build, but hey...it’s not that much $ and you could probably part most of it out if anything went really wrong.

As a long time Saabnet nerd, this could very well get close to asking price from the right person.

As the driver of a '12 4 door, 6 MT, Autobahn Edition GTI...I approve this!
