Hey, I know I've never posted here but I've been reading the message board for a while. Just wanted to let everyone know I just bought a 2003 CL Type-S from Springfield Acura in NJ. Paid $26,400 + TTL (and wheel locks and whatnot). It is brand new with 60 miles on it, Satin Silver Metallic over Ebony. I turn 17 in 5 and a half weeks, and I can't wait to drive it. Happy Holidays!!

nice color combo

If it a 6-spd

 

Nope, didn't get a 6 speed. They didn't have any and I don't know how to drive stick, probably not a good idea for my first car either.

 

Congrats and welcome to the board.

 

tyte man another 16 year old member

 

Did I miss that in the post? Seemed pretty excited but maybe not 16?

Even if he is...a mature 16yr old is better than some of the trolls that come around. If he (she?) proves to be a young-un then lets give them the chance!

Hell...I'm 32 and still pick fights on the highways...is that bad? :P

Welcome to the board. It was hard for me what I first started posting. Stick in there if you love the car. These guys (and a couple girls?) have a WEALTH of info to share. If you haven't found the tuners guide then check that out if you want to play with the car. If you love it the way it is then cheers!

 

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the board youngin.

 

congrats and good luck its a great car....

 

welcome noob.:P

 

Lucky dog, at 17 I was driving a 1978 Datsun B-210

 

I was driving a Schwinn. Welcome aboard though. Can't get much better of a car for 26k.

 

Yea, i'll be 16 for the next 5 and a half weeks until January 27th. I can't wait, hopefully I'll pass the test on my B-Day (knock on wood)!! And I do realize how lucky I am, my grandparents are paying for about 70% of it, and my parents and I are splitting the rest. I was in between the CL/CLS/TSX/Saab 9-3, hopefully I made a good decision. Glad to be a true member now.

 

Congrats and Welcome on Board!

Do your parents know how fast it is? :P

Just be careful . . that's a lot of car for a first time driver/owner.

congratulations you lucky cum stain.

 

in like 1 month you will get bit by the speed bug...

i drive fast, but not recklessly. Some of my friends tho, drive on the wrong side of the road for no reason...

One of my friends is getting a V1 for christmas and a 04 SVT Cobra in June... (he drives like crazy, but hes not reckless: for example, driving through the exact change lanes at 120 mph and honking his horn (sometimes he throws change out the window).... this is on a daily basis ).... )

...his parents are like "Jeremy, dont speed, but heres a radar detector, and a really fast car...."


so, stay off the dallas north tollway and G Bush at 9 AM and 4 PM...

 

You are a very lucky teenager. Becareful with the speed

 

where in NJ r u?

 

I'm from Springfield, close to Union, just off Route 22 less than 5 minutes from Springfield Acura.

 

Enjoy and appreciate the car - you'll love her. Just never forget that you're really lucky, it makes owning such a nice car at a young age that much sweeter (I should know - i got my car when i was 17 too)

 

Oops. The answer to my own question would be yes...he did say his age. Sorry. My bad. :P

 

That is the sweet part of owning a CL...people don't realize that they boogie! Compared to my parents Buick back when I got my lic, my Civic screwed.

 

Great choice bro! Have fun with the car.

 

Welcome to the board and congrats on the car.

Get some pics up ASAP.

 

I wish I would have found that deal. I paid full price for my 2003 CL-S 16 months ago. It had 10miles on it and I couldn't drive it cause I had only drivin a manual one time prior. I drove to Maine after 2weeks of having it to see if I could learn to drive better.

the clutch and gears are still in tact and working well, after 39k miles.

 

UR gonna love your car..just watch your speed at first...the car will make you want to drive fast...and I do mean make you!!! Welcome to the big, bad world of Acura domination!!!

 

good luck

 

Damn!! 16 y/o and has a CLS?!? I had a Kia @ 16y/o...bicycle that is. My 13 y/o son has delusions of grandeur as he's saving for a 5G Prelude; scary as it is, he already has enough for a good down payment.
