Used 2003 Acura CL 3.2 Type-S Consumer Reviews
Great car, great value!
After over six months of research before buying my first new car, there was no doubt of which car I had to buy. I considered the BMW 3 series (add up all the options & accessories to compare with the CL-S and it was too expensive-short and long term), the Lexus IS-300 (OMG the interiors are cardboard! FUGLY!), the Solara SLE V6 (I used to own a 92 Camry LE, they were basically the same car, also overpriced), and Audi A4 (too big). The CL-S has the best bang-for-the-buck. Built solid, looks good in and out, and lives up to its "Type S" name.
An Incredible Coupe!
I purchased my 2003 Acura CL Type-S in Anthracite Metallic the day the model was released. I have been thrilled with this car. With the VSA and tighter suspension, you almost feel like you're driving a sports car. The handling is great, the interior is rich, the body is solid and the engine is quick. I do not believe there is a more luxurious, better performing car out there for the money (the ONLY option on this car is the navigation system).

Amazing
I love this car!
Fun, fun fun
Love to drive the car. Had a 1990 Legend Coupe manual tran and loved it. My 2003 auto tran is almost as much fun and when in traffic, I can let it shift itself. I've had no problems at all since I got the car in Oct 2002. Dealer is a pleasure to work with. I just bought my wife an '03 TL!
Built in Canada
After drooling over the new CL's for over a year and waiting until I could find a good preowned vehicle that Acura is known for, I ended up with what has so far been a lemon. I had terrible vibration in the brakes had to have them resurfaced and pads replaced with 29K miles on the car. Two weeks later the transmission went out. Being replaced with a remanufactured one and although all of this is done under warranty it's a big letdown for what was a $30K + luxury vehicle. My 1994 Integra is much more reliable than my new certified preowned Lemon. :-(
