Default Audi 1.8t vs. Acura CL Type S
I have a CL Type S and am thinking of getting an A4 1.8t. Has anyone raced one of these? I just want to know how much faster the CL is?

Default What if the A4 has chip and exhaust?
Is there even a chip out for the 02 yet?

Default Go to some CL forums. The Accord V6 trans can't hold up.
Had a co-worker who's had 3 so far in his Accord coupe. Some problems with Odessey's too.

The CL has a new 6-Speed. I don't think any stock A4 can touch it 0-60.

My father has a 99 Accord V6 and his tranny went around 20,000K. Man was he pissed. Honda's aren't supposed to break down like that!!

He may have to go through it again if they still haven't figured it out.

Default I have a CL-S and I wonder....
mine is fine...I have had zero problems with. On the CL-S forum I do admit there are several people who complain. On the flip side, I read stories about how people drive them and it makes me cringe. IMHO it is just a car built more for everyday driving and not racing....especially with an auto trans.
