Need your opinion....
I am undesided as to what to do. I am def. going to get a CL, but i cant decide weather to get a 2002, considering that there is the 1000 dealer insentive, plus being able to talk them down, or put the money down for an 03 6 speed, but have to pay MSRP. I just dont feel right paying the full price for this car, esepcialy when i would not have a chance to test drive it or anything like that. I realy dont care which it is, manual or auto, as i never realy have driven manual, but i know that you have more control over the car and can get more speed from it, but thats realy not that big a deal to me. And plus, if i go with an 02, i can get the car sooner then later if i go with an 03 What would you guys do? As of now, im leaning to an 02.....

If you do not really care, then get the auto 2002 and bargain hard. Get the Nav as well. Most who did not get it, regretted it. I did not want it but had to get it since they were clearing the cars and all they had were Navs. But I love it now.
If you have never driven a stick, then getting a 2003 stick CL-S would be overboard. It will take you a long time to learn how to drive a stick properly, especially if you are driving it hard.
I learnt how to drive stick when I started driving over 20 years but will admit, even with all the experience of stick, I am not the best if I had to race a stick.
If you decide you are going to get stick, then find someone to teach you and learn on a rented car.

In terms of the speed, in order for me to get the 6 speed, i also have to learn to drive stick, as i have only driven auto with my legend, so that is another factor.

I think you should buy a slightly used 2001 and save well over 7,000-bucks.
Think of all the CASH you would save that could be used on mods.
How about a RED one ??? CLICK ME
