Just wondering how long you generally keep your CL? I am trying to decide whether to lease or buy one. Thanks!!

Till it drops dead.

 

Im keeping mine for another 3 years.

 

5 more years or 100,000 miles

Plan keeping my CL for at least 10 yrs. or if trans gives me any grief will be sooner. Just changed my fluid with the exchange method and was surprised that my fluid was already turning dk. pink towards brown! Change your tranny fluid at least every 15000m or sooner! See my recent thread in transmissions.

 

i will keep it forever....that is why i buy it and i always drive it with caution..i only put 15800 miles on it in a year and half

 

Well i've had my car for about 6 months, and ill probably only have it for another year and a half to two years...........i like getting a new car about every 2 years.

 

3.2 cls is a fake queer...why are u saying ur a high rollin dog who keeps his cars for two years...but u bought a 2001 six months ago.ahhhhhh all us real ballers bought (and paid off) our 2001 in 2000 and now we have our shit modded out to the max..while ur pushin a 2001 with the cheapest mod available and puttin up ur little pics tryin to dog out REAL cl people...iam laughing wishing ur weak ass lived in so cal....for everyone that reads this just know 3.2 is a newbie who is an over opinionated fag and liking for
richard simmons pics started this crap...dude instead of putting up pics of ur dad...buy cars that are new...dude ur a little late with this cl stuff so slow down and stop putting up new posts everyday since u had to save ur pennies to get ur old cl ...aiight cool

 

Gotta say I am keeping mine for the long haul. If the tranny holds out. I just love the car too much.....

 

I hope to keep mine four or five more years. I really love the car I just hope the tranny holds up. That's the only thing that has me worried about this otherwise-excellent car. I love the seats, I love the interior, and I love the engine.

It's my only car, and because it's a daily driver that I've put 28,800 miles on in 13 months, it will never be a show car, but I still give it a spirited drive on the weekends when I can.

 

See my sig.

 

Until the beginning of 2003.


I'm selling it, and getting a Lancer EVO7.

 

til I save up enough money for an e46 :o

 

i was originally thinking i would keep the cl until the warranty expired. but lately i've been concidering a more permanent, supercharged relationship... time will tell.

 

not with that weak tranny I hope

 

Get a fucking life you loser, you call me a NEWBIE, but you only have 107 post.........i just found this board because i wanted to find out more stuff about the CL-s and its always funny to see little trolls like you on every board. I NEVER said i was a "high rollin dog", but i got my cl for a good price brand new.

Once you turn 17 maybe you'll come to your senses to stop trolling around and saying your new car is the shit.....and how am i a little late with this CL stuff, what does that mean? I dont care if i buy a mid 90's turbo eclipse, and i am late buying it, i know its a bad ass car.....loser

 

:warranty: and if i do decide to get the sc, my next mod after that will be a built tranny. although i heard if you put redline fluid in the stock one it will be fine. right

 

now now boys. i'm keeping mine until i can afford a min: 400hp 350 ft lbs of torque all wheel drive car comes out. oh yeah, and only with two doors.

 

I'm gonna keep mine until I get out of law school (approx. 2008)
Then I get to start having the real fun.

 

I graduate college in January........I think as a present to my self, I'm gonna get a slightly used 2002 M3........Hopefully for around $45K!!!!!!!!

 

I bought mine in May of 2000, so I already have it for just over 2 years. I still love it!!

And I bought an older Subaru to drive during the lovely PA winters, so, I have "only" 18600 miles on it and plan on trying to keep it low.

Unless I get an OVERWHELMING urge for a stick (which I may), I'll keep the 'Golden Rule' for quite a long while!

 

I'll keep mine for about another year...if I can keep interest that long. I'm already thinking an Escalade with 23s sounds about right for me...and I'll buy a 58-64 VW bug as my new project vehicle.

 

Hmmmmm.......

I'll get rid of my CL when it dies!

 

100,000 miles is the goal for me.
It should take me about 6-7 years to hit that.
I had my 91 Legend Coupe for 8-Years and 110,000 miles.

My 2001 CL w/Auto was somewhat of a mistake on my part, which is why I got rid of it so fast.
I usually take care of my cars and keep them for quite a while.

I do about 20k/year. I will drive for 5-6 years and sell it. At that time I will look for a similar car but with rwd.

 

Thanks for all the input. I may just lease the car so I can lok at something else in 3 years.

Like you'll keep this one for 5 years Shawn

 

I would keep mine til it drops.
Getting a matching colored NSX in next couple of years. Possibly the older models since they are basically the same and can get those for much cheaper. Then fix that up. Need to get a friend for my CL-S...hahahha (This is my goal at least )

 

juct checked out the pics, Shawn. Looks great. Nice job with the box and amps.

 

2 more years, so it would be a total of 3 years

 

I'm in for the long haul, that's why i did the extended warranty. And if i can figure a way to do the S/C without voiding the warranty, there's all the extra power i'll ever need
