How much more do you think CLs 6-speed is worth over the accord. Obviously if they were the same price or only $1000 more, I would get the CL. But I am trying to determine where this line ends. Is it worth $2000, or $3000, or $5000? What do you guys think. I am really torn between the two cars. I really want the CL, but if I can get the Accord much cheaper, I am wondering if it's worth it.

Also, Accords 6-speed are not as rare as everyone said they were gonna be. I am getting calls from dealers everyday saying that they have them in stock, and that they will not go over MSRP.

 

No, they're not going to be that rare. Anyone paying over MSRP is an IDIOT.

I would pay about $500 over invoice for a CL. Look it up on www.edmunds.com .

 

How big of a hurry are you in? In 6-9 months the 6MT Coupe will probally be priced just north of invoice.
When is the CL being replaced, 04 or 05?

CL is probably going to be axed after MY2004 because of its slow sales. 6 speeds will be very rare and might be worth something in the future. It might come back with some balls in MY2006, but it depends on a lot of things.

 

Damn. If you ask Fort Myers Honda, they'll tell you a six speed Accord is so rare it's worth more than a BMW 330i with sport package!!!!!

So far this year over 29,000 Accords have been sold... compare that to 645 CL's. No idea how many of those are Accord coupes but still, I like having an exclusive car...

 

Yeah they'll sell them at MSRP, but not before they load them up with underbody spoiler, rear spoiler, fog lights, and other dealer crap. Then when they're done, they're still selling it for MSRP, technically, but the accessories warant the price increase. Tricky bastards!

 

Wow, IMO the CL-S 6speed already has a lot of balls.

 

It's all relative. The styling sucks, it's FWD...need I go on? There's a reason why the G35C is selling so well and the CL is being heavily rebated.
