Cl-s6 owners! Where are you from???

I have a 2003 CL-s6 silver stock. I am from Montreal canada, and I haven't met a single CL 6-speed owner yet.

So I'm curious to know where you are all from and what you had done to your car wherever you are and especially if near montreal!

I am in central PA and have meet one other 6spd owner. Im sure there are a lot around this area becuase my dealer went through quite a few of them before I finally decided to buy.

In montreal, my dealer said they sold maybe 5 6-speed... and there are 2 dealers here... so not much people with those.

Does anyone know how much 6-speed were made?

For the benefit of mrkite

Acura made only 2700 of the 6speed version. I don't know how many others were sold here in Vancouver.

...and I currently live in the Philadelphia area. I am a proud owner from the first batch produced about 1 1/2 year ago.

Early press releases about the CL Type S six speed quoted that only 2700 would be produced. After production ended I sent a real letter to Acura Corporate asking if it indeed was true that only 2700 were produced and also if they could give a breakdown on nav/non-nav and color. I received a hand signed reply a couple weeks later that stated they consider such information proprietary and therefore would not release it. No final official press release was ever made when production of the CL ended (see http://www.acuranews.com for Acura official press releases - note that the CL is now relegated to the Archives).

Anyway, most of us still like to think that only 2700 were made. Welcome to our little club. Enjoy!

Cool. I wondered what happend to the signatures. Another 6-speed here in OH. Seems like it's getting much faster now that it has about 6k miles on the clock.

I see a lot of you has a comptech icebox and headers. How do you like it? And what difference does it make to the performance and sound.
I like it to have a nice strong rumble when accelerating but at highway speed my girlfriend will become very annoying if the car makes a lot more noise.


thanks a lot
