Other then rims & TypeS Badge how do you tell the difference b/w CL-P and CL-S?

It seems like anyone with a CL-P can cleverly disguise their ride and make it look like a Type-S. I was just curious if there are other visual differences b/w them

The attitude of the CL-S Driver. Shifter has the type S logo and if you have black interior you have the black wood. Also the 5 spoke wheel and low profile tire

enjoy the flight

there are differences that an ordinary Joe would miss, such as the color of the car, like the San Marino Red, Sundance Gold, and the former Monterey Blue. these colors determine the Premium or Type S editions. next, look at the wheels. obviously the 17's with the 5 spoke design is the Type S design, and the Premium edition has more standard 16 inch rim, which is not as sporty. hey if u're close enough, just look at the shift knob. if there's a red 'S' on top, well, u get it everything from the leather seats to the speedo guages to the shift knob to the steering wheel to the color of the car to the wheels will tell u which version of the CL it is. did i forget about the VSA switch?? (check next to the sunroof controls)

Speaking of colors, the CL-S also comes in some exterior/interior color combinations that are not found on the CL-P, for example white/ebony.

All these differences are nice, but not really noticable while driving or passing on the highway. Our little "type-s" on back is only good for viewing in a parking lot.
But then same is true of BMW, all the models look the same when in motion.
