i want to buy this car and i really like it. i'm looking to buy one cheap for like 8000 but it will probably have 100,000 miles on it. is it worth it to buy with such high mileage?

As long as you stick with your regular maintenance, it will run forever. The timing belt will need to be replaced at 105,000 miles.

I have one and like it. It drinks premium fuel only and flies like a jet. That price does not sound high.

Serious transmission issues just like the TL (CL is a 2 dr version of the TL). Check hondatransmissionsettlement.com or http://cl.acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=487025 or just enter CL transmission problems into any search engine.Do yourself a favor and look at other cars. I have an 01 TL and have had transmission problems. I wouldn't buy this car again - its a sweet ride, but I would rather have a car I felt more confident with and didn't think was a money pit. Acura has been good about the repairs but I don't think I'll buy another one, not for a while anyway.
