Fabulous

I bought this car in 2/08. I figured it would get me through a few years until I could buy something "better". But I absolutely LOVE this car. It is beautiful (people think it is only a few years old) and extremely reliable (over 150,000 miles). I have only had to replace brakes and the alternator. I will not sell it anytime soon.

I Have absolutley loved this car, I have 95,000 miles on it currently. I've had nothing go wrong at all. Literally, the only money I've had to spend on service/repairs/maintenance for this car is for tires and brakes. One bit of advice that I learned the hard way...stick with factory parts and dealer service regardless of how much money you think you can save going elsewhere. I've owned Acura's since 1987, I keep trying European and American vehicles and always come back to Acura after having bad experiences due to expensive and frequent repairs. I suppose the only complaint I have is that the low beam headlights aren't sufficient at illuminating the road.

Good Car, Not So Good Tranny

Bought the car from a local Acura dealer with 66k miles in Feb 2004 (3.0 premium). Car was (then) mechanically perfect and ran flawlessly. Now at 85k, the tranny is slipping and has been periodically for the last 10k miles. Fortunately, I have a warranty that will replace it. Wish I could drop a 5-speed but the cost would be around 8-10k, way too much money. So except for the one huge problem, this car is fantastic. Build quality is typical Honda, interior has held up great, very nice all around. I'm actually thinking of getting a 2.3 stick as a 2nd vehicle.

Upgrading to a CL 3.0

The proud owner of an Accord Ex 4cyl with a strong hunger for more power. I like the look of the V6 Accord Coupe, however the much smoother transmission of the CL 3.0. Like my 1991 integra with 207K miles, the CL 3.0 will also be in the family for some years to come.
