Thinking of buying a cl

So I'm looking for a car and I have my eye on an 98 black cl. Is there enough space for a tall guy to be comfortable? I'm 6 ft so I don't want to be sandwiched in. Also does it have the transmission problems like the tl did? Any help would be appreciated!

I'm 5"11 and have no issues at all. The auto-trannies are absolutely something to look out for. Read the noob guide. It will give you a good sense of the all around car, issues, and modding ideas!

I know a few members who are bigger than 6 feet and have no problem with being in the car. unless you are shaq's size then you shouldnt have a problem.

All Honda auto trannies have issues. i am not sure of the newer models though. Manual transmissions are bulletproof. Other than wear and tear a manual CL will last long.
