I love this car! Even though I "only" have the 5AT. Sometimes my mind goes wondering if I should trade it in, but it's just a beautiful car in a beautiful package and I know nothing could compare to it in this price range.

I love the power increase from the headers and the rumbling noise from the Icebox when you get on it!

Apparently, we're not all in agreement about the handling. Try taking an off ramp at 80mph, then I think you'll agree it's pretty stout, and up to the task, and that's just stock.

What are you smoking?

I'll admit its not bad for a car this heavy and unbalanced, especially lowered with low-profile tires, but you would wreck your car taking a off-ramp at 80. And not those pussy ones, ones that are tight circles that go like 270 degrees. I could do that in my dads modified 3 series, but I can't keep up in turns with my CL.

Well, according to the C&D comparo, the '03 one had better skidpad numbers than the 330ci and wasn't that far behind in the slalom. And they even said that the tires on the CL-S were a lot worse than on the BMW.

They also said quote "by far the most advanced FWD system, anywhere, anytime, bar none"

It can't be that bad if it can keep up with a stock 330ci. Oh, and those C&D people hate FWD cars, but they were impressed with the 6 speed CL-S.

Sorry, but I call
I'll scan my ticket=)
and my letter I received 3 days after my ticket about how they automatically voided it=)

If anything is incorrect on the ticket, the slightest thing, it gets voided.

if you live in canada you should be able to get it voided
i don't know about how usa regulations are.

you might be able to get away with it, just argue it at drivers services.

Tell them the cops pulled over a sedan with a license plate of ________
that is my plate number, but I don't drive a sedan.
if the cop can't even count from 2 doors to 4 doors, maybe he doesn't know how use a radar gun.

Thats the reason tickets that are the slighest incorrect get voided.

many,but i will give 2.

1) on the hwy,no radio, in 3rd @ 6900rpm.... shift, and just enjoy the sound

2)the seats,my mother rarely finds comfort with most car seats(including
her 1st RL) but she has gone on two long trips in my car and loves it.


BTW, she will be getting the '05 RL in a month or two,when she gets out
of her '04 lease.
