Damn Cl-S

Why do I want one so bad? I test drove a 01 Cl-Type S with Navi. Now I want one really bad. The dealer is asking $23,000 for it with 29K on it. Damn what should I do?

BTW -Anyone want to buy a 97 3.0 w/ 68k on it?

You want one so bad because they are damn nice cars! What are you willing to part with the 3.0 for? I am looking to replace my 'old and busted' Accord with a nicer ride for my daily driver...

Look around a lot before you decide. You'd be surprised at the deals you can find.

Yea you guys are right. But out here in Ohio spotting a 2nd gen Cl is rare and the dealership (Park Acura) usually has no more than one 2nd gen Cl on their lot. And finding a private dealer is just about impossible.
I love my 3.0 in many aspects but the ride quality is just not one of them. It's tough to get used to the hesitation and the surges of the tranny, and also the bulky feeling of the car, especially when making turns. I've had my eye on the 2nd Gen. ever since I bought mine about a year ago.

Does the non Type-S offer sport-shift and navi too.? And to those who have the navi is it worth it? I figure the depeciation on the 2nd Gen's aren't too bad either. -thanks

I could get a 6spd w/ NAVI for 30K out the door!! They aren't selling well in my area and they are desparate to get them off the lot..
I've been thinking about getting rid of my CL too, but I can't decide what car I want.

Oh my god yes, Navigation RULES!. I love it and use it ALL the time, it is very much worth the price. Even just traveling to places I know, it is nice to see exactly how much furter I have to go. I also think is makes the interior look much more 'expensive' if you will. It is a map, phone book, compass, and eye candy all at the same time... definitely get it if you have the opportunity.
