'03 6 Speed on Motorweek

Did you guys catch it? They tested an Anthracite with Navi. 0-60 mph in 5.9 seconds and 14.5 @ 96 mpg in the 1/4 mile.

Overall positive review. Nothing new.

I sense a bit of FWD envy on your part. Could it be you miss FWD? For a temporary fix I suggest you drive your beemer in reverse for 10 minutes a day. Take 2 aspirin for the neck ache, and see your shrink in the morning.

Actually Motorweek characterized the handeling as very neutral even at the limits. The helical LSD was a big factor. Not sure I remember exactly buy they thought it was one of the best handeling FWD cars ever. I think Acura set this car up very well.
Oh BTW have you ever DRIVEN a 6 speed CL? Or are you just a young, inexperienced, idealistic DOGMA person?

Nice review, other than complimenting the stock Michelins...
