If there is it is a little difference because US CL would be standard mesausements for bolt diameter and such and if acura wanted to they could change that to metrics for canadians (there would be a slight difference) but I don't see the beafit in doing this.

Yeah that is what I was wondering. Actually I thought that the 1st gen CL's were called EL or something like that up in Canada. After they started pumping out the new CL-P and CL-S, they just carried those names over and changed the speedo's. I really hope there is no difference.

The EL is like Civic with some luxury stuff. Not a CL.

The 1.6 EL('97-'00) and 1.7 EL('01) was a replacement for the Integra 4dr back in 1997. It is also the best-selling model for Acura in Canada.

The U.S. and Canadian versions of the CL-S are virtually identical except for minor cosmetic differences like those mentioned above. Up here, we don't get the CL-P...only the CL-S.
