Review
I have had my 2002 Acura CL 3.2 for just over a year now. I love this car. I did a lot of research before buying it, and after driving it, I was sold. I like the sleek look of the car. The interior is nice and roomy. The seats are comfortable, and the car offers all the little luxuries of a more expensive car. I love the heated seats, the dimming mirror, and the sound system. With 225 hp, the CL has some great get up and go. It handles well at high speeds. The gas mileage is better than I thought. Maintenance has been very low in the last year.

I had pontiac GTO 2004 before this car. What a mistake. I love my CL-S. Great engine, seamless interior, classic exterior forms. HID, heated seats. I love this car. I got it for 18K with 20K miles only.

Great power with great gas milage using
sportshift (up to 50 miles more than
autoshift out of a full tank). Right
door does not line up with body. Dealer
made some improvement but clearly a
building quality issue. Overall, body
(not wheel base) is too long and not
tall enough. Great value and no
complaints for anything else.

I've had the car for a little over 2
years now and have mostly had a great
experience for the entire 66K miles.
Transmission went about 6K ago and was
replaced as it is a recall item. I
expect everyone will have this issue at
one time or another so plan on it. (It
did make it to my dealer 60 Mi. away
though, avoiding the tow). Ride and
accelleration are great as is the
interior confort and features.

I am a sports car person. I have had
English sports cars, GM muscle cars,
Nissan Z's, Supra's, etc. This is the
best of the bunch for all around
driving. The handling isn't as good as
a rwd car, but I expected that. The
pure power and comfort are astounding,
both to me (57 year old male) and my son
(22). You can drive this for 300+ miles
straight and climb out without any
fatigue. I have heard about
transmission problems with early
production versions (primarily 2001),
but I have had no problems, of any kind,
with any part of this car. It is a
shame the model was discontinued, I
would buy another. The new TL is on my
short list at new car time.

Review
It is glubby when in the driver's
seat. It is uncomfortable to drive in.
Just trying to turn the steering wheel
can give you a hernia. It is as if the
power steering fluid is empty. The seat
backs are so high you cannot see behind
you when you back up. Trying to move
the front seat up when getting in the
back seat is next to impossible. I
bought it about 2 weeks ago and I am
very unhappy. I can't believe I traded
my wonderful 1988 Acura Legen Coupe for
this monster.

This vehicle has had three
transmissions, warped brakes,
malfunction navigation, interior
rattles, and cheap leather.Quality is
a serious problem, and Acura is not
helpful.It still has problems and
Acura has stopped talking to me.Atty
Swann and 4000.00 later I parked the
car.Dealership even dropped it off the
lift last time.Car has been torn apart
so many times the car feels
stretched.They know they have a
problem, NTHSA did an investigation
and found the transmissions faulty, oh
and Acura discontinued the line, CL
and TL.Honda isn't what it used to
be.My 2000 Ram Air gave me no
problems, American cars have indeed
come a long way.
