I bought mine there also. Did you notice any fit and finish problems with yours? Someone else I know that has a cls from ramsey has some of the same issues as myself. The exhaust is not level (passenger side is lower), and the front bumper, grille and hood alignment is off.

The only issues I had were the sunroof booming, a rear window inside seal that was sticking up. Now that it has been mentioned a few times, the right side exhaust tip is lower than the left. I just noticed it after the posts. I was not overly thrilled with the dealership service or finance dude but they made it better by detailing my car for me. I bitched so much about a car wash that the gen mgr tells me they are putting in a wash bay. My sales guy was an older guy by the name of Lloyd and he was pretty cool.

Check the spacing between your grille and bumper also. My sales person was Lillian and she was cool, but that money guy, I think his name was Dan Basso (or something like that) was a pain. On another topic, Do you use a radar detector? I wonder if the NJ police use radar or laser? I was looking at the new 8500 escort with some type of laser defense. What do you think?

The grill and bumper are fine.... Yep, Dan Basso, dat's da guy. I complained to the GM about him and he said I was not the first. I use an older Uniden radar detector and it has saved my butt more than a few times. All cops use radar in NJ. Some are using Laser as well but I don't have a detector for that. I'm not sure they work that well in detecting Laser. A couple of the guys on this forum swear by Valentine and some others by Beltronics. Car and Driver did a review on them some time ago. I'm sure you can find it on their website.

I heard that a place on 17 in paramus sells radar detectors and the laser defusers from K40. They detect laser and break up the signal. I just wonder if the police can detect this stuff and make you a target. The only ticket I ever got was with a detector years ago.
Do you belong to or know of any clubs in the area that go racing?
