Used 2003 Acura CL for Sale

My vehicle is a 2003 Acura CL Type S, six-speed manual, six cylinder. I purchased this vehicle used with about 40,000 miles on it. It is fourteen years old with almost 200,000 miles and still running. I strive to keep up with oil changes and other basic maintenance. Other than normal wear and tear, I have had no major issues. The CL is a lot of fun to drive. The only downside is that I have to use premium unleaded gasoline. However, I still get about 25 miles to the gallon. I have driven newer vehicles, and I am always happy to get back into my own car. I am partial to Acura, as their vehicles come standard with extras. The quality and workmanship make for a very solid vehicle. Not only will it last a long time, but they have a decent re-sale value, to boot. I have owned two Integra's and this is my second CL. I had to sell my first one only because I could not fit my child safety seats in the back. I purchased a four-door Integra to fill the gap. Once my children outgrew their car seats, I purchased another CL.

I bought one of these as my first car when I was 19. I needed a car, and this was honestly one of my last options, since I wasn't thinking straight and was looking for something sporty-ish. I didn't really like the way the exterior looked, and I kind of wanted the Audi A4 I had been looking at. But after all the problems we found on the A4, I went with this one. Mine was the 03 Type - S with the six-speed standard and navigation, and, yes, this is the car that I used to finally finish learning to drive a standard transmission. When I first got it, I didn't really like it too much because I wasn't really aware of what I had. As I began to spend more time in it, I really started to warm up to it. At that point, the only thing I really didn't like was the fact that it was FWD, but I didn't have room to complain since I picked it up for a really good price considering the mileage (132156) and the near immaculate condition it was in. At 13 years old, it drove like a brand-new car.

The CL 6-speed is a great choice for those that want a manual, while keeping their spouses in luxury. The conservative exterior will help this car go unnoticed. This will come in handy considering its performance. The perforated leather is comfy. The interior is tasteful and beautifully crafted. The dashboard is clean with large easy to read gauges. Controls are well placed. The gear throws are short & precise, but the clutch grabs a bit too quickly. The engine winds forever yet has the torque to minimize shifting. Ride is taut, not stiff. Goes exactly where pointed but not on rails. HLSD does an excellent eliminating torque steer while adding to the traction benefits of FWD. This vehicle surpassed my wildest dreams. It has a very reasonable sticker price, excellent fuel mileage, excellent power and acceleration. The ride and handling qualities are also excellent. This is the best vehicle I have ever owned and without a doubt, the best for the money. It has all the features of a much more expensive Lexus or Infinity. To top it all off, it has not been to the shop for anything! The CL is new and I have only 2500 miles. The interior is very Accord like. Handles well and is very quick with the standard engine. The headroom with the sunroof just clears my head. I am 6' tall. Gas mileage is poor so far.
