$24,500 and it's got 24000 miles? I bet you could get a much better deal elsewhere.

One troubling thing: he says it has a Nav system, and the price he says he paid ($33k) pobably means a Type-S Navi, but the pictures show a non-navi. What else is he not quite truthful about?

But because there was such a high demand for this color Acura made it ONLY for the 2001 3.2 CL TYPE-S. There were ONLY 800 made in this color in the WORLD!!!

ummmhmmmm... The first CLS Acura of Bellevue recieved was
sundance gold. I believe it sold last month at a humongous
discount.

Looks like a decent deal...

But if it has no NAV, you can probably call around and find a 01 new that they are blowing out for $26,500 Why buy a used one.

But do a Carfax and make sure that you do a test drive before you hand over any money....

IMO

Nah don't get me wrong man, Gold is PMPN no matter where you lay at. I'm just saying if I was home in NY I would prob would get a more conserative color becuase I don't need to stand out back home for the cops and also might be looked at to be stolen or raped more, cause it stands out so nicely. But bottom line Gold is tight.

From O-T.net?

I mostly bother these guys now, cause all the BMW forums suck so much. You know how it is, you start with one CL vs 330ci thread, next thing you know you've got 130 posts...

Hee hee...check this out. I sent him the follwoing message:

"Couple of questions: is it a navi or not? You say it is, but the pictures say it isn't. Also, it's not a real clutchless manual, like you say it is, right? It's a mnaually-controlled automatic transmission, not a sequential manual like BMW's or Ferrari's paddle-shifters.

Thanks!"


And he wrote back:

"No it does not have navigation. Sorry about that I didnt knwo i was on there. I went ahead and took it off thanks for looking out.

Yes it is like BMW and Ferrari it s sequenial."

What a maroon!

Where are you guys seeing "navi" on that page? I didn't see it and I did a search, find-in-page on NAV and nothing showed up. For those of us who have inside knowledge we know that he fuzzed the truth but it does make the car sound enticing to outsiders.
