Contemporary Luxury with a hint of Sport - 2001 Acura CL
By CalicoFeline - June 16 - 10:32 pmBest car I have ever owned. CL Type S, Black on Black with additional black wood accent trim around inst. panel, A/C vents, console, etc, WOW, upgraded interior, backup and fog lights to PIAA- improvement! When you ask it to go, it comes back and says how fast, very smooth & responsive, handles like a dream. 29,000 miles replaced tires to Bridgestone Turanza LSV good choice. When you sit in the seat it wraps around you as to say Ill protect you. Sad, to say I have experienced a few hard shifts from 2nd to 3rd, hope this is not a sign of the known tranny issues, other than that, no mechanical problems.

Excellent Car! - 1997 Acura CL
By Acura Lover - June 16 - 3:56 pmThis is the perfect alternative to a BMW 3 series...in price and performance...I bought this car in November 2004 and have put 6000 trouble- free miles on it...I bought the car with a very low 43,213 miles on it which attracted me. I looked at the car and it was the perfect color inside/out (Gray Leather/Silver). What pleases me is the heated seats, excellent Bose CD system, Leather and comfortable seats. The automatic climate control is efficient and works properly. Performance is a huge plus in this car. There is a 3.0 liter engine under the hood and the dual pipes out of the rear end complement its 200 horses.

S is for Speed - 2001 Acura CL
By DB - June 10 - 1:18 pmThis car is amazing. It is my 3rd Acura and fourth Honda. I had a Legend Coupe and often regretted selling it, So when the 2nd Generation CL came out I had to have it. This car does everything, and will eat most cars lunch, including the beloved 3 Series BMW (Except for the M3 of course). Smooth ride and comfort, and Honda reliability. Just cant say enough good things about this automobile. It is a wolf in sheeps clothing. You can shock a mustang or camaro owner in this car. Some complain about the ride on the Type S, but if that is the concern you have, buy a Buick or a sedan. You are not the target market for this car.

great speed for those who dont use it - 2003 Acura CL
By BigMike808 - June 6 - 2:00 amGreat car for all of you out there who want a car with a little extra power and ridiculous features, but I have beaten this car daily, and my last car, a 91 plymouth acclaim took it better. The stock MXHX4s are garbage and I was told by the service manager that "These are the worst tires Ive seen with 2000 miles on them ever.", after taking the car to the track 2 times did that, I already need a front and rear alignment and a new rim (hit a curb in the snow). If you like having a fast car and babying it, this is the one for you. I enjoy it, but for 4 hunge a month, I should get a little more strumphiness

Pretty darn good - 1999 Acura CL
By big c - May 25 - 7:11 pmI bought mine used and its a great car, good power very roomy for a coupe, take it up to 60 mph and let the fun begin, accelerates better at high speeds. Also retains value very well. Great thing is no options brings everything you might need in a coupe standard. And very comfortable in the back which is rare for a coupe.

Excellent Car - 1997 Acura CL
By Bunny - May 19 - 4:40 pmI like the fast engine and the nice styling and interior ... I love the transmission and definitely the relability. Clocking this 3.0 with 200 horsepower to 60 takes only 7.2 seconds ... which I love.

Awesome car - 1998 Acura CL
By Jess - April 14 - 1:31 amI think this is about the 15th car Ive owned in my life and it is without a doubt my favorite. I love to drive this car! It is fast, smooth, stable, quiet, and comfortable. I work out of my car and drive 30,000+ miles per year. With gas prices climbing I have been driving "economy" cars and went out on a limb to buy this car used. It not as fuel efficient as the econoboxes but I will never go back. I actually look forward to making long trips on back roads with this car. I owned a Miata a few years ago and this car is faster with way more comfort and polish. I had to rebuild the auto transmission at 110,000 but everything else works great.

Smooth, responsive, fun and reliable! - 2001 Acura CL
By Greg Z. W . - April 13 - 10:00 pmWonderful car: drives like an M3, but is more quiet, feels luxurious and is absolutely reliable. The best GPS navigation system Ive seen. Ive put almost 70 000 miles on it and have not had a single problem. Just pour gas, change oil and have fun! The transmission have always behaved flawlessly and they did the scheduled fix at 40,000 miles. The only quibble I would have about this great car is the poor paintwork. Acura should really work on this.

Harrys 2.3 CL - 1998 Acura CL
By Harry - April 10 - 10:34 pmIve usually driven coupes, including two top-of-the-line BMWs. There isnt a better combination of elegance, looks, economy and comfort (Im 62") around for twice the price. I get 31-34 mpg on the interstate and 22-24 in LA traffic. It is quiet with great ergonomics and despite its 4-cylinder engine, its fast and responsive enough for all but the most egregious showoffs.

What Problems?! - 1997 Acura CL
By Satisfied CL Owner - April 4 - 4:07 pmPurchased my 2.2 CL brand new in 1997. 125k miles later, its still running wonderfully. Ive performed the required maintenance every 7500 miles and its never had any problem other than replacement of worn parts like brakes, tires, headlights...etc.This car gets the highest rating in reliability. Im not sure if the other reviewers just got lemons, but driving style, weather, road conditions, and quality of your mechanic do influence how well the car holds up.
