I tally 70 so far...

 

 

I've had my black 6sp since Apr 02. It's been stored for the winter but I'm picking up the new plates Fri. Unfortunately, we're supposed to get more sleet/snow/ice crap tonight and tomorrow here in MA so they will probably sand and salt the hell out of the roads again.

 

 

I have a 9 year old Acura 6-speed, does that count?

 

Technically, yes. But you don't get credit for the 2700 club. While on the subject, any idea how many ARE in your club???

 

These are the only production numbers for the 6-speed Legend that I've been able to find:

1994 - 1024
1995 - 1128

Rare air indeed.

 

there are a few running around here. I had a '91 coupe. Get a CL the inside is very similar. BUT DON'T SELL THE LEGEND!!!

 

One more - Anthracite CL-S 6-speed leased in December. Just under 3,000 miles. Needs a bath.

I'm kind of surprised at how many brand-new ones have been listed in this thread!

 

Well I, like other new CLers, knew the end was near, so bought a 6 speed now. It's sad it's gone, I blame Acura for bad planning, they have always supported manual shifts, but the 260 hp CLS they introduce as a shushbox!... killed a lot of potential sales, right off.

 

Thanks for the info - I thought my CLS was rarer then my Legend. (Nice car ya got there BTW)

 

A little over six months ago did I purchase my baby and now she just hit the 10k mile mark. Lucky to have her!!!!!!

 

135 MPH and still pulling in 5 gear and that's without mods. and over 300 lbs. of passengers. This car rocks wait to see what my car does the quarter mile.

 

I got my San Marino Red CLS 6 Speed at the end of January. I now have 2200 miles on it and love it. Just installed comptech headers a week ago and the Icebox is on the way.

 

count me in too. but how many 6spds were made with navi?

 

Count me in too...i'm the happy owner of a 6spd...just passed my 1 year anniversary a couple of weeks ago

I will be the first to post that I am a proud owner of a six-speed and I'm in DELAWARE! You should be able to catch me on route 1 most days of the week...


Where are you from in Delaware!? Did you get the 6-speed?

Just got my CL-S Type-S 6spd a week ago in Anthracite. Less than 100 miles so far. Paid 28.6k (protection package and spoiler here in Sacramento). :-)

okay don't know why mine double posted...sorry 'bout that!

 

2003 auto baby!!!!!

 

DualSpdr-
please tell me how your CL6 compares to your G2 Legend. I always wanted a 6 speed Legend but could never find one with low miles, or at all! I finally got a 95 auto Coupe that I traded in for the CLS. I never drove a 6 speed Legend, how do they compare. I had 5 speed manual G1 Legend coupe that I loved also, better even than the G2 auto.

 

One Year Last Month 15K miles and no problems.

 

3 Months and 4K miles of 6-speed fun so far.

 

Got 6 speed too baby....the stress reducer!!!!

 

123456SPEED-
Let me first explain my point of reference for comparing the cars - I am in my forties, I am not a particularly skilled driver, and don't like to go all that fast. Given all this I still love a car that pulls and handles well. Also, both cars are completely stock.

I just got the Legend two months ago with 83K on it after an almost two year search. It was very well cared for - one owner in his fifties who paid cash for it in '95! It was still on the lot because the dealer advertised it as an auto by mistake.

The CLS is tighter since it's new, has a lot more pull of course, and has a much nicer tranny - the short throw makes a real difference. The steering/handling is much more precise in the CLS as well but the ride is not a smooth. Basically the CLS excels at getting up to speed – the torque and the tranny are far superior. The shifts are much quicker and more precise than in the Legend. It’s more sport than luxury.

On the other hand the Legend is a much finer car. It has a fit, finish, and build quality that blows away the CLS. Once up to speed it is more refined in both it’s handling and ride. It just feels more substantial – partly because of the extra weight but also because it is just built better. It’s more luxury than sport.

What it boils down to is I like going from zero to speed in the CLS but I like cruising in the Legend. I sort of wish that the Legend was an auto so I would not be comparing it so closely to the CLS. Even so, I still love driving and shifting the Legend. It’s a very refined car and drive train – even after 8 years and 80k+ miles.

I think if you had a manual Legend you would still have been truly impressed with the CLS, but it just would not have been as religious of an experience to drive it that first time! BTW – I am looking to get my hands on a G1 5spd coupe - they are awesome cars as well. I didn’t plan this, but it looks like I am starting a collection.

 

Count me in on the 03 Three-pedal list

my 1 year anny on the 18th...just flipped 8000 miles

 

Nice - that makes two DE six-spds, and I am one of them! I grew up in Newark and live in Trolley Square/Wilmington now. I'll keep an eye out for you!

 

I've got one. I traded in my '01 CLS. Test drove over 20 cars and still made the decision for the CLS6. Best decision I've made. I love my car. I ordered an Icebox yesterday.

 

Here's another one! Gotta love those 6 speeds of fun

 

welcome!

 

i got one too
i got it on 5/30/03 and never posted in this thread

 

Count me in!

 

My car came with three pedals, what is the far left one for?

Yet another. It is about 9 months old with 16,000 miles.

 

Another here.

Yep, another 6-spd here.
