1999 Acura CL Reviews, Pricing & Specs

This was a fun little car, and I was sad to see it go. The acceleration on the car was surprising fast for a 4 cylinder. I have no complaints about the steering or braking either. The car is solid as a rock, I never had to do anything to the car, but regular oil changes, light replacements, cleaning, and brakes. The cost of ownership is fairly minimal do to its high build quality, and fuel economy. Even though the car is a 4cyl. it is quite fun to drive, and will fling around corners.Jan 11, 2012

A perfect balance between luxury and sport. Got a great deal on it used and I have had it since October of 2010 and it hasn't disappointed me at all. It is always such a smooth ride. With a V-6 engine, it accelerates very quickly and the 200 hp really packs a punch. Brakes work fairly well and the handling is decent; nothing to complain about though. It's too bad they didn't make the 99' year 3.0 model have a manual transmission, but for an automatic car this thing rips; and I'm not trying to toot my own horn. This car has said to have transmission problems after lots of mileage on the car, but I am just over 200,000 miles and I have not had any problems. I am a huge fan of the body styling for the car, very unique, especially the rear. The inside is full leather and has a very spacious back seat for a coupe. It has a 17.2 gal. fuel tank and gets 20 mpg around town and 28 mpg highway, so it's not the greatest on gas if you're constantly raising the rpm's. Overall an excellent car and to me it is extremely fun to drive and I would definitely purchase another CL in the future.Jun 05, 2011

Overhall it is a great car. Some people complain about the styling of the car but personally I like it because it is uniqe. The preformance is kind of lacking but that has been fixed for the most part with a variety of add-ons I have installed. Gas Mileage has improved since these add-ons and I would estimate it at right around 26 to 28 miles per gallon.Oct 01, 2008
