I no longer have my Acura....pics inside
...sold my CL last night; purchased Lexus IS350. My 2001 had over 100,000 miles on it and it appeared to be going downhill slowly. Since I missed having car payments for the past year, I decided to trade it in. It was nice while it lasted but I couldn't wait any longer for Acura to put out a decent car that I liked so I went with the Lexus. Still going to hang around here I guess, but significantly less...unless Adam shuts me down.

Congrats Ken !!
Acura is going to be losing alot of us coupe guys to order brands if they don't start offering a decent coupe.
I'm probably still a couple years away from buying something new, but with the new E92 BMW and a new G35 right around the corner, there are alot of non-acura options out there.

Congrats on the car purchase - great choice. My CL is feeling old and when I'm ready to sell it there I'll be looking at those

??? The IS250 is only 204 HP
The heart of the IS 350 is a potent 3.5-liter V6 that churns out 306 horsepower [1], making it the most powerful engine in its class [2]. With 277 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm [1], the IS 350 can achieve an astounding 0-60 acceleration time of 5.3 seconds [3], which is fastest in its class [3]. The IS 250 is briskly propelled by a 2.5-liter 204-hp V6 [1] with 185 lb-ft of torque [1].
Umm, Ill take the 306 HP AUto > 204 HP manual ANYDAY
