Talking Just picked up my CL-S today!

I bought mu 2003 SSM CL-S A/T today. It has awesome power and is very clean. I got a great deal, and I'm pretty sure the tranny is covered under the recall since it was produced in December of '02. I am very satisfied with it and this forum has given me alot of advice on it. Here are some pics...

Nice, I wish I would have gotten a 03 6mt! Congrats. Hey what part of AL are you in? I might be moving to Huntsville in the near future.

Congrats, looks really clean man, how many miles?

And if you don't mind my asking, did you prefer the automatic? The 6 speeds are so cheap these days...

Let us know if you have any more questions man, and nice ride.

Gees, my first car was a

1987 Dodge Shadow ES with a 2.2 Turbo, 139hp I think..

Till around 100k miles, I blew up the turbo and had to tear it off, that was the saddest day of my life, I think I instantly lost 50hp.

Nice first car, be safe, its a lot of power for a first car, especially if you drive like I use to.

Just so you know the tranny warranty will expire at 109k or 7 years from when your car was made....I don't get why they are against a manual tranny, everyone should learn, but if they bought it, then

I used my inheritance money to buy the car, and I plan on keeping it for 5-7 years. I don't dog out my car like my friends because i put gas in it, pay the insurance, and have to replace the tires eventually. It's a great car thanks for all the compliments!

$12,200. I figured it was a good price since it was so clean. I seafoamed it today and it didn't smoke a bit. I guess it was well taken care of.

Nice pickup! about time Mr. 170 Posts lol. But nice to see you did your homework.

mod plans?

advice: 1st mod should be to get that tape adapter out of there and install an aux input/ipod adapter lol.

Who's TL is that in the background? It needs a drop too!

I know, I've wanted one of these for 2 years now. I plan on a few mods in the upcoming month's. That is my brother's 2001 Leguna Green Metallic TL. He is a member on here also.
