    Bad Points: None so far, Oh besides the face Acura's are getting really expensive, I guess like everything else though.

    General comments: With routine care, you should have no problem out of your Acura....I bought mine brand new, (Acura CL Type S 2001) did all my schedule maintenance, and I swear, I never even had a warning light come on in my car.....no problems at all....as far as the tranmission, no problems at all. If you buy one, you will love it!

    I am proud to say that I currently am an owner of a pre owned extremely rare 2003 Acura CL Type S 6 speed. It was a one owner, no accidents, with 42,000 miles (a puppy). Man when the Acura dealer took me out for a test drive in this thing, I almost pissed in my pants the car is soooooooo fast. He skipped gears (from 1st to 3rd) and the cars tires chirped a little then vrooooooom. The other cars were so far behind us it wasn't even funny. What a car, and what a steal of a price I got it for (my s ...

    My 2003 CL Type S is on its 3rd automatic transmission and it is giving me problems. The dealership where I bought the car says their service department makes a living on just the new transmissions they install on the 2002-2003 Acuras. Figures indicated this relatively small dealership changes 30-40 automatic transmissions per month. Even worse, the fixes to the transmissions, as supported by the factory, tells the dealership to increase the slip between gears to avoid the harshness of snappy ge ...

    The Acura CL Type S 6 speed Manual is an exceptional sport touring coupe. Its fit and finish is exceptional, the accelertion and handling are marvelous. Hiway gas mileage with a set of Comptech headers exceeds 30 mpg at 75 mph average. Have driven the car for 5 1/2 hours without stopping comfortably.

    My 2003 CL Type S is a very satisfying car for the $28K I paid Acura for it. In comparison with a BMW 3 series, I'd say the CL/S is a better buy but it lacks the dash, snappy handling and better styling of the new BMWs. It also costs a lot less than a 330i. The CL is definitely not a sports car. It has a massive 260 HP and smooth acceleration right off the top but doesn't handle like a lighter RSX or Integra. CompTech USA offers speed parts that will take it over 300 HP and improve the handli ...

    Quick in 6 speed. The low quality of the stereo was a real shock. Midrange comes through far too loud and at max bass & treble settings is still the main thing you hear. Intolerable without a sub. I've got a several year old buick regal as well with far better sound quality. SHAME ON BOSE. I didn't really test the stereo before buying but if I had, I would have insisted on $1-2k off to completely replace the sound. I won't buy another vehicle with bose in it (unless, that is, bose does t ...

    This Acura cl type s car is awesome. I've got the 6 speed transmission and so far, I've raced and BEAT a BMW roadster M series, a Lotus and everything else I've come across. This car is sooo much value for the money it's crazy. This car is more reliable and more muscle than any 330i. You'd have to be moron to blow your money on an Audi or a BMW.

    My 2001 Acura CL type-s dynoed at 325 hp. It is probably the most necking breaking car. So when you see me make sure you have a neck brace.

    This Acura CL type s car has been 100% perfect. I have just over 10k on it NO problems. The front seats are the most comfortable seats I have seen, even back seats are really comfortable (no leg room but it's a Coupe!).

    For 30,000, the Acura cl type s car is better than the 330 bmw (xi not included). It is fast, 6 speed manual and the best gt luxury coupe for the value!
