Current Garage -
2003 Acura CL-S
2004 BMW M3
2002 Volvo XC70
Got the M3 two years ago, I drive the CL-S and the M3 in the summer months only and keep them both garaged 6 months out of the year (I live in VT). The M3 is definitely my baby and I only drive it on sunny days, it hasn't seen rain or dirt roads since I got it from texas. The M3 has a handful of goodies going on shortly, hoping to put down about 420hp at the crank
So the CL-S is still my daily driver in the warm months, and the Volvo wagon is my winter car and dog mobile haha. Next on my wish list is a 911 GT3

Jeep SRT8 is the daily although I'd much rather use the CL as the daily to keep miles low on the truck. The Jeep is a blast to drive and handles much better than the CL (haven't had any suspension work done in a while) and the AWD is fun but the CL is more fun being a manual, not to mention the whine of the blower.
I'm in a condo and don't want two cars sitting out front so I garage the CL somewhere and only drive it once a month
. Getting a house and garage are #1 on the agenda this year

A jeep handling better than a cl, what a joke. I can take turns faster in my range rover too.

TQ > MPG
Typically though full exhaust with longtube headers if the best bang for the buck, but a properly sized head/cam/intake combo yields the most overall power. I have all of those plus 45 cubic inches, so its pretty optimized.

My ' 01 CL-S has been my daily driver (60 miles/day) since I bought it new in 2000. Just about 200K miles on it and still drives great! Best car I have ever owned. My other rides are a 2008 MDX and hubby's 2010 Callaway Vette (606bhp )

.I'm sure YOUR CL can give me a run for my money in the curve but my girl is quite nimble.
There really isnt one mod that gave me the most power, its really more about the combination of parts when it comes to the Ford 302.

Thanks guys for the props! And yes the M3 is definitely sweet, drives even better haha. The CLS6 is probably never going to be sold, love it too much.

Its being dropped off Saturday actually to be parted, but mine doesn't deserve to be on the same list as the three I mentioned.
And I forgot one - Rondys car. He traded it in last year IIRC.

just listing off the top of my head here.. lippstuh, ronjon, p.diddy, civicdrivr, gnuts, anthracitecl are probably my fav. cl's of all time. all 6-speed too except for diddy.
why does everyone move on from the cl?

People move on from the cl because of the same reason you wanna sell your car for. Just gets old/ want something else.

Damn right, lol
It completely changes the car, it goes from being a momentum car to just downright fast car, I know I got a gt2860 on mine, and what hilarious is I have boost at 2k rpm, and it pulls all the way to redline, and corky bell turbo kit looks almost stock, as well adds a lot of extra stuff for consistent power without breaks or anything. 14 psi on race gas I was running 12.2 spinning all the way to 4th gear cause I have a 6 spd from a mazdaspeed miata, its just downright unruly, hell I don't even need to downshift just floor it in 6th and im instantly up to 80-90 like its nothing. But I am thinking about putting a longer final drive in the damn thing sitting at like 3k at 60 mph.
