New Owner! Introduction

I’ve been posting for the last couple weeks on the forum and due to time constraints I have been unable to properly introduce myself and my car. The names Frank and I live in South Florida. The car is a 2003 CLS6 with about 78k. Silver exterior and black leather interior with no navigation system. The car is bone stock with absolutely no modification... ooohhh yeeeeeah

I enjoy the car in its stock personality and will try to maintain her as much as I can to keep her running great. I might mod a little but first money needs to be spent on maintenance. Before the CL I had a 1997 Mustang GT and let me tell you I think the CL would spank my old, mostly-stock GT (automatic). The only thing I have done to the CL since I’ve had it was a headlight restoration by some kid off of CL... he did a great job I think.

I dont’t why the images are enormous. Sorry

a mild drop is basically all you need to make the car look great. You can go with springs ($200), or the better and more expensive route coilovers.

You have a link to the headers?

And to everyone else thanks for the warm welcome and yes the 4x4 stance will be taken care of when the money is good again after my 1K maintenance bill that I have already racked up...
