Selling my car...

Well - it has come to part ways with the CL. I will be needing a 4-door in the not too distant future, so it has to go.

I am advertising on ACL.COM first since its really a unique situation with this car. Sale link is here:

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/fs-2003-cl-s-ssm-navi-6-speed-brand-new-engine-343844/

The engine is brand new (only ~3K miles)... and when I say new - its new heads, block, water-pump, oil-pump, cams, valves, seals... blah, blah... installed by Acura. The buyer can talk to the technician who installed everything if you are local to CA.

It's really a good buy and I am asking above blue-book since you guys arn't going to spend $7K on a new motor.

That's funny... I was going to put my car up for sale today too. I've been wanting to for a while, just haven't taken the time. Been busy working on my place (finally bought one (condo). Anyway, sad to see the CL go, it's been a good car. Great deal with the new engine! It even has less miles than mine

Hate to have to join the click but im probably getting ready to join the click too! I love my CLS. Its perfect to me. fast but still luxury. but too much trouble to get the car seat in the back.

Am I correctly reading between the lines that Congratulations are in order? If so, Best Wishes to you and your wife as you start your family. May it be filled with Prosperity and Health.

Hate to see you jump ship though. You've been a great resource here on the boards and have made great contributions to the CL's advancement.

Good luck on your sale.

If you guys have any friends looking into one of these... I'd appreciate if you pass along the info. I'll give another week or so on ACL.com before posting on autotrader or elsewhere.

For obvious reasons.... this is a great buy; for all practical purposes its a new car for about $10K less than sticker.
