trade

Would you trade in your 2006 tsx with nav with 20k for a 2003 acura cl type S 6speed without nav with only 14 k miles. Anyone looking for a gray pearl tsx with 20k miles.

I would never trade for an older model car... it's like taking a step back... (unless it's like a waaaaaaaaay better car).

Great to hear, based on your statement you are now THE buyer of my CL-S. I'll await the money transfer to my paypal account.

In all seriousness I could send you like $2k right now, just wouldn't be able to pay whatever the rest of the price is for about 5 years

If you're going 2 door, why not an 03/04 330i? I would think thats a better car, no?

I agree, BUT it will be slightly more than a 03 CL-S. Maybe an 01-03....

No way I would make this trade. I own a TSX now, and used to own an 03 CL-S. It's a nice car, but I wouldn't make the trade. You'll be losing insane quantities of money.
The TSX's blue book value is probably worth twice as much as the CL-S!

I've got a CLS 6spd, and even I'd say stick with the TSX. Why would you want to trade a car that's worth $23K for a car that's worth $16K

While the TSX has less HP, it's 3 years newer (and has navi), and it's not a discontinued coupe. There's a reason why they want to trade you for your TSX. The TSX is worth more... the CL (even with that low mileage) is worth 17K at most... (probably less, check kbb.com or nada.com to verify).

The CL also won't be certified by Acura dealers soon, 'cause it's too old. That tell you something too...

And if you're thinking the 60 extra HP will make for a sportier ride, you might just as well trade up to something with RWD too...

Now the only wrinkle to my argument is if the TSX is an automatic... then you gotta get rid of that piece of crap

My CL6spd has 70K miles on it... so it might make sense for someone like me to trade them my car (plus 4-5K cash) so I can get a low mileage car (again)... Too bad it doesn't have navi...

It's also the rarest of the 6spd... White/Ebony with navi... someone will scoop that one up quick... (prod figures are linked in my sig).
