STORY

The Acura CL was a two-door coupe sold from the 1997 through 2003 model years, positioned as a personal luxury coupe and derived from the Accord platform. The first generation offered four- and six-cylinder engines. The second-generation Type-S became notable for its 260-hp 3.2-liter V6 and, for 2003 only, an available six-speed manual. The CL was discontinued after 2003.
