Should be a no brainer, but what's the general opinion ?? I want to trade my '99 TL for a CL type S. I know, I lose the room & gain the performance. My TL has been rock solid and makes a great business vehicle too.

 

Have you considered a TL-S?

I agree wait for the tls. it will weigh a little more but you will naintain the performance. good luck

It all depends if ya want 2 or 4 doors. I like a two door over a four any day.

How much actual room do you lose? The rear seats are still the buckets. It seems like you would only lose the easy access to the rear seats.

'01 Acura CL Type S nothing special yet but give me a month or so.

 

It is just easier to use the back seats in the TL. there is probably a little more room in the back of the TL.

Using the back seat of a 2 door car is for friends and relatives. It would be akward to try to cram strangers into the back seat of the CL.

no offense to CL people... and hey, i own a CL too... but.

i think the design on the TL looks way better than the CL...
i'd get a TL... i mean, yes, you're trading it in for basically the same car, but if you think about it... trading it in for the new CL really isn't anything different either, well except for the performance... but you can get the best of both worlds with the TL...

there's more features you can get from the TL too...
-redesigned side mirrors (more aerodynamic and less wind noise)
-new cup holder
-fog lights (as opposed to the bullshit roadlamps we got)
-the dope monterey blue color
-and best of all, the BOSE sub in the back (well, if you plan on keeping your radio stock)

i'd trade in my car for a TL-S anyday... but i just don't got the money...

and a few months someone said?? no man, its coming out in about 3 weeks!

good luck
