Instead of a new CL, I'd rather save a couple thousand bucks and get a fully loaded 6-sp Accord V6 coupe. Just my $0.02..

 

How about am 04' TL with the 6 spd. manual...that would be sweet, and you'd have two extra doors ......

 

im looking to get a 2.3 CL 5spd...thats is around 10 K... that is all


i can't afford a brand new one right now

the engines in em are ok...2.3 sohc vtec...
who knows...maybe ill swap an h22 in there :rick:

 

I like my father's '03 CL (five speed manumatic.)

It's a nice, plush car, and true to a Honda that 3.0l makes 32mph highway. Un-be-frickin'-leivable. The fifth gear (second overdrive) makes for killer efficiency.

However, an older model with a 2.3 will be annoyingly slow. Hell, your Vigor has one more cylinder and .2l over it and probably weighs quite a bit less.

 

I would advise against a 2.3 CL.... but thats just my opinion.

 

2.3s suck ass dude. i wouldnt even consider it. i drove one with the five speed and it was like a ****ing geo metro 3 cylinder. pos. if you want the cl only get it with a 3.0. otherwise keep the ****ing vigor and sell your lude or vice versa. take the money out of that and ****ing tweakt he hell outta oyur shit. sellt he lude. take that and beef your vigor is what i would suggest. cause even tho its bigger body witht he extra cash from the lude you could do some nice stuff ot make it faster then the lude was.

 

:werd:

true...very true. Your right about the 3.0's, they are a bit faster, but they only come in auto. and i really want a 5spd h:
