"This car is the best kept secret. It is fabulous car, it couldnt be more reliable. And its roomy and very nice to look at too. Great interior space, big trunk, great on gas, and always starts and gets us where we're going. Most reliable car ever. Best kept secret because it has reliability and low operating expense, yet it is comfortable, well equiped, and luxurious. Our milieage is getting close to 200k and the engine is quiet and smooth as can be. It just keeps running and everyone thinks the car is new because it looks so good.."

"I have had mine for 3 years now. It was very well taken care of and looked and ran like new. Had 78,000 on it when I bought it and now has 122,000 and the main issue is it is leaking tranny fluid. I think it is just a gasket. The driver window did fail, which I understand is a known issue with the car. For an 11 year old car, it is amazing!"

"We have a 3.0CL and liked it so much we bought a 2.3CL months later. Both are outstanding. Very different cars to drive, but either is a wonderful choice. The 2.3 is light, fun, super quick, and has a very smooth ride. The 3.0 is heavier, even more luxurious with BOSE & heated seats, is extra quiet, & rides like a limosine. WE love them both and couldn't be happier with them. Great high-end features, comfort,& performance."

"I have driven a 1998 Acura Cl 2.3 all over the east coast on a weekly basis for the past 3 years and never once has this car failed me. Other then regular maintenance the only thing i have changed is the battery and that was only because my amplifier draws to much power."
