Hey CL pros!
I need some advise. I have an opportunity to buy an extra clean 98 CL with 207k miles for 3500.00. It has had recent timing belt, service, brakes, tires etc.
I am concerned about the miles. What do you guys think? How many miles can be had out of the 2.3 with manual trans? Right now it is running great.
Thanks for all input.

try to take 2g's off the price, then buy an H22A

207,000 kilometers or 207,000 miles??? makes a big difference....

It says miles. Try to get it for 2500, and then I wouldn't go any higher then about 2900. That car will last 300k if it was taken care of well.

wayyyy to expensive for that many miles.

wow i got mine for 2800 with 120k on it.....

I've got what, almost 216k now and everything seems fine, could use some new spark plugs, but other than that no big deal.

hmmm, mine is reaching 200k and runs like teh day it was bought. It all depends on how the car was being taken care of. 3.500 for CL is relatively what they run for here in CA, not sure about NC.

163k here!
and still running strong.

negotiate with the seller... and drop a h22 in!

Where I live, kbb says:

Excellent $5,235
Good $4,670
Fair $3,970

for a 1998 2.3 CL with 207,000 miles. I don't see at ALL how 3500 is a bad deal. Fair means piece of shit. Depends totally on where you live, though, I guess.
