Another Newbie!

Well I would like to say hello to ALL and to say I love my CL. I'm in the Military, and when I came home to the states from Korea I found a CL. Didn't really know much about them but after test driving, I had to get it. I never have wanted a car that you see on the street all the time, and the CL's I rarely see. I live in the Augusta GA area and have only seen 2 in the past 3 months! The CL is fun to drive, fast, and great looking. I have a white '01 CL w/ 78K. Original tranny and had no problems!!!!! YET!!! Since I purchased, added 17" Lexus wheels with plan center cap on 225/45/ZR Yokohoma's, amber driving lights, mesh grill and tint (30 on the sides and 20 in the back, I wanted to keep it legal)

Welcome!

You're going to love driving the car even more if you plan to put on some simple bolt ons.

BTW which lexus 17"s did you purchase?

By the way, from past experience with Photobucket, when you post a link of a slide show, anyone can click on your album name above and view all your pics. It's not the best for privacy. You're better off just posting the images directly.
