Can not make sense of your question. most all the 6 speeds work fine.
I don't want it, I had a white (but with tan, no Navi) and sold it for my current C.

It's white with charcoal leather. Most white CLs had tan leather. So it is rare in that sense I guess.

Estimate is that only about a dozen were produced.
White/black/6Speed/Navi combo.
Yea, white is not my favorite, but it is much better with the black interior than the tan I had.

i wonder if it was a mistake at the factory. thats why its so rare. usually with acuras they dont build to order?? so maybe the paperwork got messed up and the folks at the plant accidentally put the ebony interior into the car??

either way i think it looks hot!

I built a CL online with those characteristics long time ago. So it was possible.

Educated guess is that only about a dozen were produced. it was an option offered.
White/Ebony/6Speed/Navi combo.

6MT/NAVI CLS produced from FAQs (estimated)

#/Exterior/Interior
223 Silver (ebony)
220 Black (ebony 167, parchment 52)
129 Anth (ebony)
85 Red (ebony 24, parchment 61)
66 Blue (ebony)
66 White (ebony 12, parchment 54)

figures from repost by bgsm1th

I love my anthracite, but really love the red/ebony combo too.

Hey this is in my neck of the woods too! Too bad I'm not looking for a car, this one would be perfect! Love the color combo, and a 6speed to boot.

Only bad thing is that the seller has 0 feedback. Would definitely check this car out in person before bidding on it.

Yes they are rare, but this is about the Rarest CL, white/ebony AND 6 speed/Navi.
6 speeds= 2700
6 speeds with Navi = 800?
White 6 Speeds with Navi = 66
White 6 Speed with Navi and Ebony interior = 12.

12 is rare out of what?, 50,000 CLs from 01 to 03.

Icebox yes. Headers, maybe. Any Comptech headers made after the '03 6speeds came out, should fit. Any Comptech headers made before that, no they won't fit. OBX, Alphawerks, and the original STONE headers won't fit either. STONE is making a new set of headers that are supposed to fit, but I haven't kept track of the progress on them. Last I heard, the first test fitment didn't go so well.

I didn't think the auto Icebox would fit the 6-speed due to the different throttle body on the auto.

Poking around on Autotrader.com there's a White/Ebony/Navi in New Jersey with 287 miles on it. The dealer wants a bucket of money for it though. But its almost new....

He is asking $23,000. Think it is worth the upgrade from a 01 CLS without navi?
