2001 Acura CL 3.2 Type-S FWDReview
Fantastic — I use this car for daily driving. Very responsive and agile. I avg. 24 mpg in suburban and 30 mpg. hgwy. I can drive this as an average or spirited driver and am never disappointed. 270 hp is more than enough to whiten your knuckles. Pros: Excellent handling, hugs the road like a cat. Cons: Needs regular maintenance on timing belt..Dealer cost is around $1000.00 every 100,000 miles Looking for a Used CL in your area?CarGurus has 116 nationwide CL listings starting at $2,500. |

Few Complaints,lots To Praise. — This car does its job. It is very reliable. It may no longer be that fuel efficient, in the light of today's 30+ miles per gallon cars, but was efficient back when it was newer. Once maintained, always ready to go. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Nice little car. Very reliable. Not a high performer, but cost effective. Needs little repair. If you oil regularly, balance the wheels, and fuel, you are always ready to go. Cons: Two-door, not a family car. Lacks quality take-off, but smooth and responsive on the go. |

Fun To Drive — I have this car for over 10 years, it owes me nothing! Fun to drive, great to look at. It has held up as well as you would expect for an Acura. Highly recommended if your family situation allows for a coupe! Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Quick & Responsive...fun to drive Cons: Small back seat, fine when the kids were young, not when they're 21 & 18! |

One Of The Best Bangs For Your Buck - Period!! — Never had a lick of trouble, love the handling, and ride is nice and stiff!! Nav system works awesome!! Integrates with stereo very well - mutes one side, and turns volume way down when prompting you. Counts down in feet to the turn - practically leads you by the nose!! How cool is that?? Primary Use: Family transportation
Pros:
This is the best car i've had in many years... owned everything from jaguars to austin healeys to triumphs, lots of acuras - integras (3), Legends (2), RL (1), and this CL. Cons: Not enough trunk space with DVD Navigatiojn setup - |

Wish Acura Would Bring Back This Mid Level Coupe — The power of this car is impressive for the "sport-luxury coupe" category. The front seats hold your wait in place as you carve turns. The most major issue with these cars has been the transmission which many owners have had replaced several times. At this point, the warranty no longer exists. Factory Bose speakers match the aggression and precision of the CL. An aesthetically pleasing piece of work, many would be surprised that the car is over 10 years old. Lots of contemporary sport coupe drivers sleep on this guy. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Looks chill drives hot. Cons: Stupid transmissions |

If You Like To Go Fast And Want A Long Lasting Sports Car This Is It. — This is super fun to race Had it built for track not street was super fast and did really well as a race car beat most cars including a couple Ferraris at one point. This is a great built car if you can find the type s and a 6 speed manual. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Fast Cons: Bad ATT |

2001 Acura Cl — I love this car. Heated leather seats, sunroof, Bose system, aftermarket dvd navigation system, 225hp V6 and I havent even really started the customization yet!!! Quiet, comfortable, quick and smooth! The only better version of this car would be the S-Type which bumps the hp up to 260, but that can be achieved with aftermarket intake, exhaust etc. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Everything Cons: nothing |

Get It Used — Love it, plenty of power. Freshly installed iPod adapter. 230 hp is way more than enough for me. The car has tranny problems after 200 thousand so that's why its so cheap. Suspension is a bit soft, and the car is enormous so not good on handles. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Power and Comfort Cons: wide turning circle |

Acura Cl-s Review — I really miss my Acura CL-S 01. The styling and interior quality is fantastic. The big issue is the transmission. They fail, fail, fail. I had one that had the transmission fix where they install a 2nd gear jet. Doesn't matter right after I sold it the tranny went. Doesn't matter if the seller states he never had to change the tranny it will eventually break. It's a design flaw and even the refurbed units eventually break. Too bad because all other aspects of the car were fantastic. Cheers Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: interior styling, quality, and placement of gauges. Exterior styling, Performance and Handling, Unique Cons: Terrible Terrible Transmissions! If you can find a 6SPD you're golden! |

2001 Acura CL 3.2 Type-S FWDReview
Cl Type S — I've had the car for about a month now. So far I think the performance is very good. I had a Mazda Miata before, So the handling is no wear near as good as that. Its handling is good though for that size car and being front wheel drive. This car is a lof faster though. The build quality on this car is great. So far I really love the car, and I'll update this in about a year of ownership. Pros: I love the sharp sophisticated look of the car, inside and out. Cons: Wish it was rear wheel drive |
