Hi, Does anyone know what is the main difference between O1-03 CL Type-S? They really looked the same to me probably small changes?

thanks

01-02 are the same

03 has smoked head light, different tail lights, body color door handle, body color grille frame, no fog lights, thicker exhaust tips, and has 6 speed offering. Other than that, it's the same (engine, body frame, suspension, etc)

Thanks, for the quick reply I have notice those also. I though about the interior/tail lights. I saw many with different and with the same looks on 01-03 years models.

Rear view mirrors were changed in 02.

My 03 has 3 pedals

A search here for difference* in thread titles only will turn up many threads like these:

Body color mirrors as well

emblem on the steering wheel, blue tint on the side view mirrors. i think that just about covers it

Theres an antenna that sticks out on the back as opposed to one that is part of the defroster lines like the 01.

Is that a fancy way of saying "Search?"

no. it's a near direct way of saying "click on the big ass orange link for noobs".

I was trying to be nice.

side mirrors too. in 02, they are fully painted and smaller than in 01

GreenMonster

No, but it's been discussed a number of times... That's why I just linked the 4 or so threads that I found by doing a 30 second search...

If someone wants to research and post the "Ultimate 01-02-03 difference thread" feel free..

I believe that the '03 6-speed comes with my fat ass in the driver's seat.

iisylentii

I din't understand that to well ? do you mean your going to get your thread stickyed ?

CLSpeedster

Don't the 03's have a slightly lower ride height than the 01 & 02's? I thought i've heard that somewere.

atrix415

I don't really know what is it called . I am probably gonna just make another thread with the comparison this weekend. If the moderators/admins plan to put it in the FAQ for people that is great....

Yep just minor things. But a few big differences too!! Depending on how you look at it.
