1) Anyone out there have a CL-S and little children (under 3yrs)?
2) How much of a pain (or not) is getting a babyseat into the back of a CL-S?
3) Worth it? (I think I know the answer here already, but your two cents are certainly appreciated...)
Thanks!

also, i heard that the 99cl does not need additional adapter to connect a cd changer.
so much trouble, maybe i should just sell my 7500 miles 3.0 and get the new one with cd changer. anyone in the bayarea looking for a 99cl? email me at jscott143@yahoo.com
and they don't go by consumer information? that is a load of bull schitt.
see, this reinforces my opinions on acura dealers as stated in the other cl type s topic on this site.
I now wish to sell the car for a fair price.
The car has 6000 miles on it and is in excellent condition.
I am in Arizona.
Any interest??
I'm relocating to New Zealand at the end of November. I've lived in NZ for most of the past thirteen years. I returned to the US planning to retire in June of this year, but circumstances now dictate that I have to go back to Wellington.
My motivation is to sell the CL-S for somewhat less than the fair market value but more than I could realize from off-loading it with a dealer.
They have about 15 or so in stock. Salesman was Josh Eger. He was very fair and professional and I would recommend giving him a call if your interested in buying.
How about information on money factors? It, I would guess, would vary based on location and available lenders. Again, in Southern California will very good credit. Thanks.
Thanks for your comments. ;-)

i wonder what the average income of CL-s buyers is...no, i'm not asking any of you to divulge your income, it's a rhetorical question. i wonder if acura salesfolks might have such records tho. seems to me that if someone is earning $50K a year, they'd be better off with accord, budgetary wise. maybe those in the 50K to 60K range would buy the CL-P and not the CL-S. i can maybe see that. but ooh wee, that CL-S is a tad out of reach for the $50K crowd, am i right?
$28.5K repectfully. Are these drive-out prices?
I'm getting drive-out quotes of $32,000 to 32,500
in Houston. (w/spoiler & splash guards).

Why are you so worried if others on this site who make less than 60K can afford a CL-S? Priorities and personal taste are different for everyone. If you feel you cannot afford one, then don't buy one. Don't worry about everyone else, we're all adults here. If you make 50k per year, that's an average of about $3,500 monthly(after taxes),so $500 a month for a car is nothing...but if you have 4 or 5 kids, credit card debt running out of your ears, and overdue students loans, then you're right BUY THE HONDA ACCORD!
Looking back on it now, I wish I had kept my older car. Not that I don't LOVE my CL, but when I get the chance to trade it in and get something cheaper I will.
Just waiting for the L.A. auto show in January! Then I will pick a car!
IS $30,000 A REASONABLE OFFER FOR ME TO MAKE FOR DRIVE-OUT PRICE ON A 2001 CL TYPE-S(TAX, TITLE & LICENSE)W/SPOILER, SPLASH-GUARDS AND WHEEL-LOCKS?

Acura brakes seem "soft", and give the wrong impression. I'm wondering if the fact they're soft fakes you out, and makes you think they're not effective. That is how I felt driving my first Acura.
While we're at it, did all of you Type S owners change the oil for the first time at 4,000 mi as recommended? I found this to be surprising as I'd prefer to change it at no later than 2,000 mi.
On the other hand.....I do love my car and hate to sell it, but I must. My husband and I are wanting to upgrade to the new TL because it is a bigger family car and (because of no problems with current Acura) we want to stay with the Acura line of cars. If anyone you know is interested in buying my wonderful CL, please let me know. Like I said it has about 40,300 miles on it, Inza red with parchment leather, is in great condition and is super clean! I am asking $16,300 for it.
Thanks
Anyone else have this problem? What was the fix? This is a small dealer, sells mainly Suburus. So far we really love this car. Great handling and 31mpg at 70mph. Problem is , it is hard to keep the speed down!!! Hope someone out there can help?
Thanks for any input, Tom.
Have any of you heard of a permanent fix or even the actual cause of the rattle? I have tried the sliding bit quite a few times with no success.
Other than this annoyance, I love this awesome piece of machinery! What a fun car to drive!
I am planning to take it in again in early spring. By that time they might have a better fix for it.
Thanks for the response.
i don't have any other rattle, just the resonance thing that i havne't gotten fixed yet. i'll probably end up getting a visor anyway.

area. I was just wondering if anyone from this area has bought a 2001 acura 3.2 CL. I have been
getting some outrageous/contradicting prices from
the dealers.
I am planning to buy the type -P(225 HP) without
navigation CL. Accessories - Spoiler, tire locks.
If anyone has bought a cl recently, can you please
share the price/dealer name with me.
You can also e-mail me at goodfriend_23@hotmail.com
thanks
Good luck

In my opinion, the Type-S is definitely worth the extra $2,500 over the base CL!
