To buy or not
Alright, I need to ask everyone's opinion about this one. I'm ready to sell my 97 3.0, and I found a great deal on a 2001 CL Type S, with 16000 miles on it. I was gonna choose between this and a 99' or 00' TL. But, of course i'm worried about the infamous transmission issue on the Type S. I know they extended the warranty to 100,000 mile 7 years. But, i'm still worried. What would you guys do?

it should be a no brainer. Type S hands down. If you have tranny problems it'll get fixed w/ no questions asked.

Actually, its kinda strange the whole deal with this car. This car is being sold at a Chevy dealership. They got it in as a trade in, and asking price is 21995. I told the guy i'm not paying more than 5000 down and 250 a month on the car. Now, he said he could do this. I just have to go back and put a down payment. So, i'm hoping it'll go through, we'll see what happens though.

btw. i dont think they will have any problems financing you if you show up with 19k down. with that money you could take the car in a four year loan and only pay 250 a month if you get a pretty good interest rate. if not, have your mom co-sign and get a good apr.

you will be VERY VERY lucky to get 16g's for your car. Mines a 3.0 and a 99 w/ about 50K and i'd be lucky to get 14K

The car dealers always tell you that just so they can sit you down, bullshit you, and entrap you into a higher monthly cost. Look to be paying more like in the 320's.

Sure we can do $250 a month
said the dealer. The salesman just forgot to mention for how long
