  Very agile, fun-to-drive car - 2002 Acura CL
  By bruce007 - April 25 - 2:00 am

  This Type-S model is a very agile, fast machine. Handles well on curvy roads. Definitely fun to drive. I cannot believe all the standard equipment, and very high-tech. It is a tremendous bargain in its market group. Excellent sound system. My only issues: I would like the exact car with a telescopic steering wheel and tilt headrests, 1 inch more head room in the front and rear. Please, Acura, come out with a higher-end version.

  Simply The BEST - 1997 Acura CL
  By KenNJ - April 25 - 2:00 am

  Im no kid, Ive been driving for 32 years. Ive owned a 72 Datsun 240Z and 70 Dodge Charger SE, so Im no stranger to performance cars. Without a doubt, the CL is the most luxurious sport sedan Ive personally owned or driven. Reliability is fantastic and the fuel economy is great for the 6 cyl (better than my Toyota Avalons), which is no mean feat. The car is so well put together, ya can hardly tell when youre well over the speed limit

  love my 3.0 CL - 1997 Acura CL
  By nhl1 - April 24 - 2:00 am

  Very fast and Great fun to drive, outstanding and unmatched visibility, very comfortable and utterly reliable. Nice looking too. I think I wasted my money on an extended service contract since quality is so high. My second Acura over 13 years.

  Auto Transmission Woes for CL - 2002 Acura CL
  By rallyhat - April 20 - 2:00 am

  My 2001 CL Type S went through its transmission in just over one year. Getting a replacement took a month. (I was told they were in extremely short supply due to high failure rate.) Apart from this, my only complaint is mysterious rattles from the passenger side that nobody at the dealership can find. This adds to the noise level that already seems a little high given Acuras reputation.

  2.3 Underpowered - 1999 Acura CL
  By Ford-Mustang-GT - April 17 - 2:00 am

  Ive had my 2.3 for 3 years and the only problem I had was with the horn assembly a month after it purchase. For whatever reason, it caused the car to lock in Park. But, I havent experienced any serious problems thereafter. My only complaint would be that the 2.3 is a bit underpowered and it sometimes has a rough idle.

  great car - 1997 Acura CL
  By jbchickenhead - April 11 - 2:00 am

  the CL is an awesome car for the money. you get both the prestige of the acura label, and the dependability of a honda. ive had it for about 3 months now, and bought it with 58000 miles on it. it hasnt had one problem yet, and is a strong runner. it has a responsive original clutch, and is a smooth ride. it is a stylish luxury coupe, and overall, it is a great car!!

  Sharp as a bullet - Forget the Accord - 1999 Acura CL
  By Jerzeemike - April 5 - 2:00 am

  Just traded my Integra for this car. I thought I loved my Integra till I drove this car for a day. Now an Integra just feels like an upscale Civic. Its luxurious, fast, and a really upscale version of the Accord coupe. It has all the amenities, not too mention the Acura Preowned Certified Warranty. Its one great car for the money.

  The Perfect Car - 1998 Acura CL
  By Isaiah - March 25 - 2:00 am

  This is my second Acura, and I am spoiled. In the four years that I have had the car, the only service has been an oil change. When I see the service problems and little things going wrong that people with GM and Ford and Chrysler cars put up with in the first couple years of ownership, I can only laugh at what they call "value" and reliability.
