Not many CLS in Orlando??? seems like most all CLS are either in California or Florida.
Don't rush it if you don't have to. You can find one with at least half the mileage for not much more. good luck.

i just bought a CL-S 4 days ago, and i can't see how 14,6 is a good deal at all. i agree with sixgear here in sayin...83K!?? 83k is still 83k, and ur tranny warranty is up in a year or two of driving.

i got an 01 cl type-s, blkblk w/ only 29k mi for 17,4. and i'd way rather take that than an 01 cl-s w/ 83k mi for even 12,4. you're talkin about 40-45k mi above the average and over 50k mi over a low-mi car. stick to ones under 60k.

o yea, and keep lookin. i found a cl-p (i know, no one wants a cl-p) with 35k mi for 14,5. i'm sorry, but type-s isn't worth 50k mi more.

Cause everybody and there dead dog wants a truck or a Suburban. It would seem that nobody wants a coupe.

I thought I remember hearing at some point that 80% of all Suburbans made go to TX??!! Seems kind of high, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out that at least a majority goes to TX.

LLdweeb,

Do yourself a favour, if you really want a CL, make the 3hr drive down south to Rick Case Acura of South Florida , there the Largest Acura dealer in the US. Last time i was there they had a nice selection of 01-03 CL and CL-S, and the dealer itself is A1, go and see Travas (Sales) and Randy (Main Finance Guy). You can tell them Robert with the Cert 01 White CLS Recommended them, trust me you won't go wrong and they will get you a CL at the right price that you will happy with ..

I hate to say it but an 01 cl type S with 83,000 miles for 14.6K is too much, why because you only have 17000miles left before you have no more tranny warranty left, if it fails after 100K, your looking at aleast $4000-$6000 in costs.

If the tranny was not a factor, i'd say 14K would be a nice deal .
