Hey guys,

If you had the money,

what would you do to the CL-S. What mods would you put on? Give me every details.

If it was me, I would get a twin turbo setup if they made one, make the car lighter, upgrade the engine and all that etc.

I think if I had another $10k to spend on a car, I would have bought something else
Our CL-S is great, especially for the $28k I paid for it. Sorry, but if you start putting too much into it, there are other vehicles I would prefer.

Don't forget also, anything over stock won't be covered by insurance if it gets hit or swiped.

Dont get me wrong I LOVE my CL but if i had more loot i would by something with a little more aftermarket support. Prolly like a s2000, used supra tt, used 300zx, and leard to drive stick on it. Our cars are great but not modded east, they dont even have a body kit for our car, forget the twin turbo!

 

If I had the money I'd buy another CL with a manual and eat the depreciation.

if im bill gates's son in law.
i will buy a SL500 as my daily drivng car
My Cl-s airshots. 19" rims, full customized bodykit, sound system. Repaint my car to blue. Twin turbo+supercharger. convert mine to 6 sp. Customized taillights and interior
cutomized doors open up. put NSX aluminum body material onto my CLS. and different chicks every nightz HHAHAA MY Dream babY!

 

oono, why not the SL600? Why settle for an 8 cyl. when you can have 12?

Well, if I had the money, I would have a Supercharger installed... if anyone made one. Truthfully though, if I had the money, I would buy either a Lexus GS430 or a M3... maybe an M5. If I had even more money- I would buy a Ferrari 360 Modena... If I had even more money, I would buy a strip club! hehe, had to throw that in!

I'd doing everything I've already plan on doing to my CL...plus buy a 2002 Escalade, bodydrop it and 4pump it as my tow pig. Get a nice enclosed trailer. Go with an m5 as a daily driver, turbocharged 2002 M3 as my sports car. Not to mention a barstool powered by an r600 yamaha motor. Shifter car too...those things are a blast.

1997 Accord coupe EX-L. Chrome suspension, Chrome motor, every bolt-on imaginable. One pump, 8 dump hydraulics with accumulators. Leather, Billet grills, 18" Neeper Shadows...etc..etc http://www.artofnoize.com/Cars/aaron.htm

1990 Toyota standard cab. Bodydropped 3". 17" KMC Nemesis', extensive suspension work. 4 wheel airbags.

 

You might love the V8, but with gas prices going where they are, you'll end up hating it

 

If I had more money I would have bought a completely different car. If I wanted a go-fast car, I would have gotten a Firehawk and strapped some boost to that, or a WRX and done the same to that.

The only mods I plan to do to the CL-S would be CAI, exhaust, and maybe some sways or something suspension-wise.
If I find a couple Gs laying around, wheels and tires.

Well, after reading all this, I might as well just buy rims for the car.

I was hoping to get some good ideas on what to do to the type S like getting a twin turbo setup, or NOS or whatever.

I'll just slap on the 19s lowenhart and lower the car.

Hmmm... S4 with a Stage II APR or GIAC chip... Yup, I think that would do me!

If I was really gonna go all out, I would do an engine swap with the RS4 which I think is close to 380hp from the factory. (Only made in Europe right now though.)
