Cool Well, I did it!!!



Yup, finally made the purchase. Bought it last night. Now the worst part is waiting until late July for the car to come in!! Oh well, it gives me time to sell my car. Anyone want a mint condition '98 3.0 CL?

I'm guessing by your username that you're from the West coast? Out here, there are hardly any TL-S'. My dealer had 2 on the lot and when we got back from the test drive, one was sold and the other one had a couple drooling over it. These things are hot. Plus, I don't mind waiting, I'll get it factory direct with almost no miles on it.....

I guess so.. cuz there are at least 10-20 TLs parked on the lot at most of the dealers out here... how much did u pay for yours? I wonder if the prices are higher over there? where are you at again?

That's a good question. I think he will. It's fortunate that the CL-S and TL-S are so closely related!!

UCLA... I paid $32k out the door (only options are mudflaps and wheel locks). From what I've been seeing around here, that's a good price. A co-worker of mine bought the same car from a different dealer and paid about $1000-$1500 more then me without any options. Oh, I'm in NY.

Congratulations, the waiting can be a killer though. My car was new, still in the wraps, and I had to wait 3 days, which was 2 days too long.
