Power seat is hard to adjust and difficult to move when I need access to back seat. Dislike the lack of folding rear seats.
I can't find a jack, and believe the last owner lost it, but he claims it is under the rear seat and it doesn't come up (No operating manual).
Stick shift should either needs be more forward or the center CD box lowered.
Ridiculously large turning radius compared to my other car (1997 Honda Civic DX Sedan).
I helped a friend pick this car out, and was envious from the day he bought it two years ago with 82K miles. He decided to get an SUV and was going to trade it, so I bought it with 97K on it. I love Hondas, and own or have owned Civics (92 & 97).
The CL has so much more power and is the best highway cruiser I've ever owned. It's also a beautiful and distinctive style. I think Acura would have sold more if they used a sporting approach with the 2.2, and leave most of the luxury feel to the 3.0. Still, I feel really special in this car, and wonder why Acura stopped making sport luxury coupes.
I just recently bought a CL myself also, I maintain it properly just had to get to the axles replaced which cost me hardly nothing. I am grateful that my car runs so well, considering its 10 years old. I get many compliments on how nice my vehicle looks, it helps I wash it twice a week since its white. But I am very happy with her.
