what would you do?
I'm trading my 03 TLS for an 01 or 02 CLS with nav.
what i have found thus far:
01 cls nav blk on blk with 60,000 miles for $18,300
02 cls nav red on blk with 22,00 miles for $22,750
what car would you buy?
(any help at this point would be greatly appreciated)

Zero chance of that happening. Unless it looks like this:
Our re-sale value might suck... but it ain't that bad.

It's funny, it takes me places other than the roads that I've traveled for years, I just tell myself, "Trust the navi... trust the navi..." and bingo, I'm there.

So you're trying to say I could get an '03 CL-S with under 30k miles for close to $15k? Doubtful.

did you just miss my post about what my buddy paid for his 02? There is a difference between dealer trading price and dealer asking price
15K may be a little low right now, but they'll be there in very short time. I'll try to get a listing from the next auction and see if any 03's go through. 01's have gotten down to as low as 10,XXX from what i've heard.

my TLS with nav is a GREAT car but the CLS with nav will be just as good and cost me less per month.
good luck..
