I might be joining this end of the site... Is this a good deal? Trading my 1st gen..

Might be looking at this tomorrow, right now I have a 1998 3.0 CL Premium, 72000 miles...



Auto, no navi, whatever, don't care too much for nav and i like my automatics, I've driven stick my whole life. It's a one owner off lease I talked to the dealer earlier today.

45000 miles they're asking 13,990 as "reduced" whatever bullshit internet special they pass it off to be. Seems like a pretty fair price, I'm going to check her out tomorrow... You guys think thats a fair price?

I take it thats an 04 for the price, but either way that sounds like a great deal. Damn I cant believe 3rd gens are that cheap these days. I feel a bit upside down for some reason.
Go for it you should get decent trade-in for your CL w/72k on a 98 drive much???

That is not a bad price, but I would look around. Last month I picked up my 04 TL 6 spd with A-Spec for $13,000 with 64K on it.

The TL's have been dropping just like everything else.

even though you dont care too much for navi, i would still hold out for a navi model, its just a better look in the cockpit with the stero and whatnots....i never have the nav screen up unless i am using it for directions, but as the stero it just looks cooler....

99% of people on her that did not get Navi wished they did, myself included. The only reason I did not was the deal I got and I wanted a 6 spd. For me it came do to 2 cars and

6 spd > Navi

I was in the same situation. I was looking at TLs and all the ones with NAVI were auto, and I really wanted a manual so I got a 6speed non-navi. I live in the city where I know everything and I dont drive to other cities offten to really need a NAVI. Its cool for DVDs I guess but I am not a fan of driving and watching TV haha

I would keep my eyes open when you go look at it 13900 is a steal.

I didn't get navi and don't regret it, i just don't have a need for it simple as that.

+1.. I must be old school but the Navi is just an unnecessary toy for me. I let the road do the navigating.

Now if we talk future mods.. maybe CarPC..
