Need Advice!

My local dealer has an '03 CL-S 6spd (Anthracite) with NAV. It was owned by the dealer himself and is extremely well taken care of. It will be an Acura Certified Pre-owned vehicle(150 point inspection and an additional 12 month 12000 mile total warranty).

The down side is that it has 22K miles on it. The upside is that it has:

19" wheels and tires with very good tread
tint (not sure what %)
Comptech headers
Comptech suspension
Spoiler

It looks incredible (sorry, no pics).

The asking price is $27,600. Is this good? I know the miles are high for a 2003. If not, what would a realistic price be?

Thanks,
Wayne

I should mention that all the Comptech stuff was dealer installed and therefore covered by dealer warranty.

Also, the car does have the Stone Guard protection.

I agree. It's a used car w/ 22k on it.

You can buy a NEW CLS for 27-28k. Heck, I bought mine last Oct for 29.3K (before the news of the CL being discontinued).

I'll sell you my CLS w/ 6300 miles on it for 28K even. You pay for shipping (actually, I'm not joking).

Time to find another dealer.

Here's a post about a guy thinking about buying a 03 CLS for 23K (US). Now that's more like it.

I think that you get a lower price like 26K or 26.5 you should go for it. It has the NAV which is a big plus.

22k miles is way too much!

get it down to $25k drive out and you are in good shape!
