Bought my 03 CL-S 6sp back in Oct 04. Drove it for one(very short month) before I garaged it for the winter. Started looking for the car in June 04 and because I work for an import dealer was able to find a very clean 03 with excellent maint records.
Love the car, took a few days to get used to the feather light clutch feeling.
Had to spend $$ to cut wax and polish, fix small dings ect. Man does the black paint show everything!!!!
Have been viewing the CL websight for at least a year mostly during lunch break in my shop.
I am a licensed auto tech for a Kia dealer, could of bought 2 Kia's for the price of the CL-S but I work on crap not drive them. :whyme
Looking foward to spring thaw and some performance upgrades.
Want list: Cold air intake, comp headers, serious braking system.

congrats on the purchase!!! You probably won't find any other forum where people are so into their cars, but we don't turn them into the fast n furious type cars. We are sleepers in some respect.

Congrats, love the Black, navi? I agree on the brakes, these are wimpy.
Funny, about the Kias you coulda had.
I guess we're spoiled here cause putting a car away for winter would be strange. We don't have 'winter'. Putting away for summer might make sense here when sometimes things start to melt!
Enjoy your black 6.

Congrats and welcome to the pack. Yeah, black is a high maintenance color. I had a black '01 CLS. Love the look of the color when car was cleaned and waxed. But hated that black showed everything.
