I can't imagine they a) would not replace the car; and, b). make it better, ie-more hp, 6 speed, etc. Surely the TSX is not meant to fill the gap b/c from my point of view, it looks like a 89 Civic!

So Acura can and I believe will be doing this with no replacement in the mean time.

I don't think Honda will spend time and money to redesign the CL. It's just a North-American-market-only coupe with dismal sales number. Potential buyers will have to settle on the Accord V6 coupe, which is not bad of a substitution at all.

RandyMax: I agree, but the new Accords are fu*king ugly ! I'll keep my 98 coupe EX-V6, as it way better looking !

CLS 6MT Navi
An Acura salesman told me he thought the CL would be offered as an 04 but not with manual. At first I thought this was possible but now I'm not sure. Seems like if they do sell it for another year they'd want to offer all existing options that might make a sale. I hope they do drop the manual, then mine will be even rarer!
