The Car just has the splash guards and wheel locks, thats it....and so far $27,600 is as low as he went...he wouldn't go a penny less so far...another local dealer wouldnt go below $28,100 on a similar Demo model. Im just trying to get a feel for what people are paying for a new CL S so anyone w/info will be of great help, thanks...

Hell no!!!!! FUCK NO!!! Don't do it man!!! Shit. That's demo car?? A USED 2001 CL and they want that much??? Tell them to eat shit and die a horrible death. Spit in their eye... If you brought them that car for trade-in they'd give you $20k.

Hey, dude really not a bad price in Ohio. Check my sig. I got stroked for 29g's, but at least it was new, and the color combo I wanted. I personally don't think it's a bad price. Although, I must admit when I drove the demo, I hammered on it pretty good (just something to think about.) Otherwise, not bad... still under warranty for all the little shit that you'll find. Columbus dealer's are pricks. They think they're made of gold.

Is that walkout price? You know INCLUDING TAX. Or wil tax go on top of that.

For reference, I bought mine back in June 2000, w/Navi, Burl shifter, 11 or so miles, for 30,500. Thats without tax. Now subtracting the $2G for Navi it comes to 28,500. A difference of $900 plus splash guards (about $40 - 50) and wheel locks ($?). PLUS 5600 SLAM-BAMMED I'LL BE DAMNED MASHED MILES, or so.

At least have him remove the destination charge.

I think you could do better. You in Jersey?

Good Luck

NO WAY! Are you at Superior or Columbia Acura? I live in Cincy too. Columbia offered me $100 over invoice for a no-miles 2001 CL-s. Back away from the demo very slowly, and the RUN LIKE HELL!!!. Think about it - how do you drive demo's? You don't want the ones I've driven!
Since I've driven demos at both places, I've probably driven it.

I paid $27,200. a month ago. Offer $27,000.
for the car AND a 7/100,000 warranty. If your going to get stroked, wait for a 2002.
That '01 will be worth $25,000. tomorrow.

Don't do it, it's way too high for a 5600miles CL. My parents got theirs last november with only 8 miles on it and it costs them $26,500. Right now it's even lower because I have seen a advertisement at $25,800 for CL and they have eight of them in their lots but it's in Southern California though. But still, your price is still too high, reconsider.

Well i talked to the sales Manager a few times since my first post on here and this is what they are saying....first he came down another $100 to $27500, i told him that i knew people that paid that cost and lower for a new one with no miles. he said he would sell me one w/no miles for that cost...only problem was that all the ones they have execpt one w/navi were demos and he didnt have a new one and didnt think he could trade for one since he didnt have a new one. he has 2 black CL type S demos, one w/3700mi and one w 5600 mi. the rest are colors i do not want..one is as low as 1300mi. So next call to him he said he would come down another $200 to $27,300. So we are slowly getting lower in price. but i still dont know what should be a good deal for one of these demo's....Thanks Ahmad

Bro, I got mine last october for $27000. It was a demo with 4,100 miles on it. It came with a spoiler, wheel locks. This was almost a year ago, so I'm assuming you can get it for invoice atleast. Good Luck!

To find out how bad you would be getting reamed, go to another dealer, say you are interested in the 2002 TL-S, and ask what he would give you on trade-in for a 2001 CL, Black/Black no Navi, w/5600miles on it.
