I don't know why people say that 6spds are so hard to find
I think I may have sold this car about 9 months ago. The kid who bought it hit a tree 5 days after his insurance was cancelled.

I can't see the pics as the car is no longer for sale. I really want to find out what the VIN is. How many SMR/parch can there be around beantown?

What a waste. I hate it when stupid shit like this happens. I always took care of the cars I've had, even my first car, a beater Audi 80.

Lowered price and included new H&R springs that have never been installed

Ad in black market.

Probably be flamed, but it is the lowest mileage 6spd i have seen.

According to the Carfax report, it looks like the mileage is reported correctly in the ad.

Looks good, and has lower mileage then mine, nice find. Must be new as i did a search 2 days ago and it didn't come up.

Asking 22.995 with 3.300 miles to my 20,500 with 13,000 miles, plus extended warranty. Not bad.

Ryan, I think the price is a little high... I got mine w/ 35 miles for $29,400 four and a half years ago

If it's the parchment interior and not the ebony, then it's really too high I know you like to hate on my parchment interior

I'd pay $20k tops. Even then I would be wondering if I overpaid afterwards.

NH Black/Parchment
6-speed
Navigation
Perfect mechanically & in excellent condition!
62,500 miles
New pads & rotors
New Honda manual transmission fluid
Synthetic oil & premium gas always used

Pictures and links are above....or, just search autotrader or cars.com with the zip cod 55407

If you're tying to sell it thru A'zine only that would explain it. Have you posted it for sale anywhere else?

I haven't seen it but it's the exact car I would buy if I were looking for another CL. A lot of people don't care for the Parchment but I prefer it.

Yeah, even with that low of mileage, I wouldn't pay that much. So you're right. But I think that's as close as anyone can get to buying a "new" CL-S at the moment.

Although I bet you there is a die-hard Acura fan out there somewhere who's got a brand new one with all the plastic still on it, sitting in storage with all the fluids drained and battery disconnected just begging to be brought to life.

The owner of the dealer I used to work for had a building full of cars like that. He had some sick ass cars in that building. The list of cars is long my friend. Very long. You'd be impressed.

The black one looks pretty sweet... but it should with only 29K miles on it...

The SSM one would be ok for someone on a budget who wants to get into a 6spd cheap. Why would anyone want to by a 01 or 02 when a 6spd with 100K miles is the same price...

I'm curious to see what the NBP goes for.

Yeah, I agree, if you're on a budget the SSM is a good buy, especially since the automatic is the only thing making the CL not 100% reliable past 100k miles.

Hey whats going on. First post. Yeah!

anyways, that black CL-S you guys are looking at on ebay. I went to look at is as I live close by. Its clean! I tryed to push 16-17k and he wouldnt budge. Way too out of my budget. I found one the other day 03' 6speed with NAVI, 54k listed for $15,900, next thing you know it gets sold as soon I get approved for my load. Just my luck. Still searching. What prices are decent for a 03' CL-S 6speed with decent mileage?

Thanks!
Eddie

03' 6speed with NAVI, 54k listed for $15,900 is a good price... that's why it sold...

That's about what I'd expect for my 6spd (56K miles non-navi)...

Hmm, I wonder what the black CL-S6's reserve is set at. I'd keep my eye on it and wait until last minute and see if you can snag it off of eBay at a decent price. Keep your eyes open though because it seems a lot of 6 speeds are showing up for sale lately.

I just found this locally. Sounds interesting but I dont' know how smart it is to trade in 03 CL-S 5AT with 53k for 03 CL-S 6MT with 89k. And No Navi

I think the reserve is set somewhere around 20k.

I don't know why people say that 6spds are so hard to find

I just traded in my lease on my 2003 Acura 3.2 CL Type-S, 6 speed stick, Nighthawk Black, with 55,500 miles on it. The Infiniti dealer gave me $14,000, which paid off my lease, my last two payments on the lease, and had money leftover to use as part of the down paymnet for my brand new G35 Sedan Sport. The Acura held its value really well. However, the Infiniti dealer of Montclair put my car on their lot for $20,000! I am not sure they are going to sell it at that price. But that is not my problem...I love my new car and I loved my Acura.

I think the rarest of the rare would be the white with ebony interior and navigation. If my memory serves me correctly, I think they only made 12 of them.
