That’s a beautiful vehicle, but I can’t for the life of me figure out why a 22-year old guy would want to drive a car like that.
Don’t you feel 25-years OLDER behind the wheel ???
I’m not slamming, I’m just curious.

shawn, after my tranny died i was looking for a new/used car.
on my list where
330 - every other kid on the corner has this
new s4 wait was too long
G35 - didnt' like it , even though it drove very well . plus I would of gotten bored of it in like 1 year
Z-same as feeling as the G35
E46 m3- the engine problems pushed me away from it
CLK430- wasn't feeling it after seeing it in person
E500- loved the car but just wasn't sporty enuff
1999~2000 911 996 c2 and c4 - the interior had nothing. really it had nothing.
boxter-S - couldn't find a tiptronic w/ navi
6 speed 540-was very close to getting it but saw my 740 next to it
tsx- wasn't rwd
the 740iL wasn't even on my shopping list but after i was kinda pressured into driving it I abso fucken lootly loved it. Plus my uncle had black 740iL sport and had to sell it after 6 months cuz he couldn't afford it . but while it lasted it was very PIMP.
the 7 was always one of my dream cars but never thought it was with in reach.
Handling- hard to belive but this car out handles my modded cl-s in everyway - turning radius YES IT CAN BUST U turns where my typeS couldn't.
Power- my typeS is faster to 0~60 but after triple digits this baby flys
Pimp factor- the treatment/respect I get is totally different. I've started my own consulting company on the side and I kinda wanted a more serious image when meeting w/ clients.
Everyone recognizes the car including all my dad's friends and other old folks girls' parents blah blah. I've also had alot of people just randomly talking to me about the car.
Plus I wanted a car that no one else had - atleast between my friends/enemies.
Also it seems like this car attracts less cops on the road.
Oh and best of all I get totally diff VIP treatment @ the clubs that i've been going to for the past couple years like im a diff person. Its a great road trip car to take w/ my boys and also on the weekends when I roll to DC.
The licence plate STPH8NG says stop hating,to shut up all those haters that I have/had in the past that had doubts about me making it since I was a fuck up in highskool.
On the negative side - this car drinks gas like no other i'm getting around 15mpg, and the navi is totally fucken worthless, the cup holders are just for show, already broke. suprisingly bmw service sux dick. Acura is 5 time better. and the bmw fourms SUck too.
I really wanted the tsx but after test driving a bunch of RWD cars I just couldn't do it. If acura come out w/ a RWD with a 50/50 weight distribution then I'll be the 1st to jump all over it.
my next car will most likely be a RWD luxury sport coupe
wishing for the 6 series,
SL500
E55AMG
545 6 speed smg
911 c2 tiptronic
RS4 tiptronic
z4 SMG
s2k2
crazy- this thing THUMPS loud as shit. almost too loud I've set the EQ to -7 on all the low frequencie and turned the bass down and also the gain down on the amp and it still rocks the car. the bass is the cleanest tightest i've ever heard.
thnx for the props everyone

Case in point:
There’s more 60+ guys driving Corvette’s then there are 20 year olds driving Buick Park Ave’s.
Besides, I’m more the “target buyer” for the CL then many of the members here.
