The TL Type-S has nothing to do with anything. There was no CL Type-S 6 speed around when people paid (not payed) over MSRP for a Prelude. I was not aware anyone did(as they did discontinue it due to lack of sales), I'm taking your word for it. I don't know if you've ever driven a CL-S 6 speed, but it's a head above the new Accord 6 speed. Especially in its engine. I'm shocked you said anything about looks, as many think the new Accord looks like ass.
Edit - Oh yeah, and the CL Type-S 6 speed will match the BMW 330Ci in the twisties. Says Car and Driver. The CL-S actually pulls better slalom and skidpad numbers than the Bimmer with RWD. The Accord "Sport Coupe" has a stiffer suspension than the standard Accord, but it is not even close to that level of handling.
Who says i'm arguing? I was just at the acura dealer a couple weeks ago and i was sitting in and looking at a 03 black CL-S fully loaded, etc etc the Sticker Price was 34,875 or something like that. I dont understand what your trying to say about the TL-S not having to do with anything. No i've never driven the CL-S but i think its ugly. The two people i konw with ludes paid 31 Grand for them They have 00 SH's. Yes they cost them that much. Besides shouldnt a manual be cheaper? So it doesnt matter that the CL-S 6 speed was out or not the Sports shift was and plenty of people picked them up. And didnt the prelude discontinue because of the high price.
