Is it just me

or are there more 2nd Gen CLs on the road now?

It seems that I've seen more CL in the past month then over the past few years -- both CL and CL-S, driven by both the young and old, and all model years.

Are the leases running out and people are grabbing these as a great used buy?

I was driving down the road yesterday and said to myself "I never see any CLs on the road, I love it!" After that I saw SEVEN in that one day! It was insane! One of them was a red one on the highway driven by a hot blonde. We played around a little

Yes. The TL in all model years seems to be a good seller.

Funny, must be a case of serendipity and synchronicity? We just came back from the shopping center and stopped over and over at the nice CLs I was checking out.

Silver 01 (or 02) CLS.
Silver 03 (manual)
Black 01 or 02 CLS
Blue 03 CLS

Wow -- in one level!!!

Never had seen so many CLS in one place before (at least in my area)!

Hmmm. What's going on? Is there a hole in the universe? It seems like laws of conservation of matter are being violated...if anything, there should be less CL on the road due to attrition by means of collisions.

all it is, is timing and the right places. you might go a week or month without seeing more then 5, and then u might see 100 in one week, it all varies.

there is a SMR 01 CLS that works up the road from me (older guy), friends dad has 03 CLS 6mt NBP, 01 and 03 SSM CLS I see occasionally, and 1 03 CLS ABP I see very rarely, and and 01 CLS TW with spoiler just like mine ( older guy, his is unmodded), that waves to me everytime our paths cross.

They sure have tried to take mine off the road.

Perhaps CLs are "sliding-in" from a parallel dimension. :P

So you think. He might have the ulimate sleeper.

He's probably waving you to race him.

Not around here. I'll be lucky to see 3 or 4 a week.
