New guy here
Hey what's up? I just bought an 03 3.2 CL. The car is very clean and all stock. It has 80,000 miles on it and drives great. I paid $11,100 in Miami FL. Good deal or not? Well I have owned a few other hondas and acuras but know nothing about this car. I will be needing tires in about 6 months and wonder what most recommend. I don't need the best but want a good ride. Any suggestions would be appreciated....

If it's not a type S that's a horrible deal. Sorry.

Welcome. Yes, it was a decent price. Tires depend a lot on what kind of driving you do. I've been very happy with Yokohama V4S' in the stock size for general all around use. Tire Rack has them if you can't find them locally.

bye Acura, hello Toyota
Welcome to Azine!! Post pics when you get a chance and I hope the car is a Type S. Watch out for the mod bug, once it strikes....kinda hard to get rid of....

Thanks for all the responses guys. It is just a base model no S. I didn't want something that was a gas hog. Also I'm old and this plenty of power for me. I don't see many mods in my future. I just wanted a decent, reliable car to drive. I am thinking of maybe getting some rims when I need tires in a few months but that should be it.

1.what kinda rims are those? never seen those before unless their stock CL-P rims.
2.And is that clip-on weights on a alloy?
3.I think fuel economy measurements are nearly identical for CL-P and CL-S
4.Take off that front bracket (and sell it to me, haha) unless you need to display your plate
5.Welcome!

You should have gotten the S you would have been happier.

1. I think they are just stock rims.
2. Yes they have clip on weights. Is that wrong? When I get tires I can have them changed.
3. Damn should have done more research but I don't thing I saw any CL-S this clean for the price.
4. It's yours. Don't need it.
5. Thanks....
Thanks for all the other welcomes guys. Yeah I very happy with my CL-P.

wow looks really clean, nice purchase and welcome! I would definitely recommend some suspension mods though, that will have the car riding nice AND looking nice

Well I feel old in this crowd. The average age seems to be 25. Anyway the car is running great and I am very happy with it. I haven't got the manual yet but is there any maintenance I need to look into with 81000 miles? I thought I read some where that these cars were maintenance free untill 100k besides the obvious (fluids and filters, tires and brakes).
