Is it me or does everything on the CL seem to be working loose. It just doesn't feel as solid as it did when I picked it up at the dealer. I know its about a year and a half old but it shouldn't feel as loose as it is. Has anybody else experienced this? I've received a great offer on it so I think I am going to sell it. Pick up a 2000 S4, I think. What do you guys think? I know I am setting myself up for flames so please know that I am extremely loyal to Acuras, but for some reason this vehicle just doesn't meet my expectations. Are there any other vehicles I should consider?

 

i know i don't have a CL type S but maybe concider a TL type S. if you like Acura and like the motor in your CL it's basically the same car except a 4-door. or if you wait a while(like 3-4 years) you can get the RSX type R.other than that from Acura that's all i can think of sorry bout the bad luck on the CL. just give em another chance.

 

I'm thinking the same thing. I have about 15,000 miles and it feels like 30,000+. It has fallen somewhat short of the quality I expect from Acura. I'm bringing it in for the 15k service next month and I've got a list of things to "adjust" so maybe it will feel like new again.

 

If I get one more rattle in my CL I'm selling it and buying the car I've always wanted. A 1986 Fiero GT.

 

I love my car except for the stupid P-R-N-D5-D4 thing in between the two front seats.

All I can say is, GLAD I'M LEASING! Why a 2000 and not a 2001? A small number of the 2000 S4s had turbo/cooling line issues that were amplified by chipping. But of course, you wouldn't be chipping your S4, right?

 

I know a guy selling a pretty much flawless, 1998 Yellow M3 Coupe E-mail me if your interested.

 

Nah man dont sell the CL. When you get your car serviced, be nice to the dealer ans explain everything thats wrong with the car and they should fix it fine. Just be cool with them and they will be cool with you.

 

if you do... i got dibs on the headers & sways

 

With the way you driver your M3, I wouldn't call it "flawless"

Why are you getting rid of it? http://www.acura-cl.com/cgi-bin/ulti...c&f=1&t=006762

Did you find something that he did to your car while he had it? http://www.acura-cl.com/cgi-bin/ulti...c&f=1&t=006974

i think it is a done deal. love the CL but the quality just isnt there. going to check out the S4 this afternoon.

question for all: if you had to choose between a S2000 or a S4 which would you go with?
