My last car was a big pimpin' 89 Buick
Century. The beast went though a new
tranny at 80k miles and everything but
a new engine block at 96k. My favorite
part of the car was constantly hitting /
running over objects and laughing because
the car rarely dented (read: tank).
Every few days the car needed additional
air add in the tires because of its weight
going around turns. The latest car, an 89
Legend coupe L was a big step up for me.
I do occasionally miss the enormous back
bench.

Until last December when I bought my CL-S, my everyday 50-mile round-trip commute car was a 1993 Ford Probe GT 5-speed. It's now in semi-retirement with 120K+ miles acting only as a Home Depot cargo transport (I don't have a truck or SUV and never will).
As annoying as the minor rattles in the CL-S are, the Probe by comparison always sounded like a rattlesnake convention.

001 Silver CLS
Absolutely stock and ready to rock!

I traded a 98 Camaro Z28 for the Type-S. The camaro was fast, but it started to fall apart after 30K.
Since I was very happy with our 98 Prelude, I went with Honda again and got a Type-S a couple of weeks ago.

Looks like I'm not the only former Chrsler owner. I had a 99 Chrysler Sebring LXi (the ultimate POS). Was at the dealer 28 times in the first 11 months. The car had it's own personal service bay at the dealer. Went through 4 sets of rotors in the first 15,000 miles, the first set in 4 days. Chrysler finally bought the beast back. Looking to keep my CL-P for a long time. I have had it for almost 2 weeks now, and not have had a problem.

1997 Taurus SHO.Stock 3.4 V8 produced 235 HP.I modified exhaust and intake and got it up to approx.265HP.I also upgraded springs,sways and to Toyo Proxes.Within 2 weeks of completion it was totaled.CHP had the plate of the guy who cut me off from witnesses,but they couldn't pick his photo out of a lineup.
Anyway it was an awesome car for those 2 weeks,and you rarely saw an SHO on the road.
My first car(circa 1993) was a 1977 chevette(2 door..so I guess it was supposed to be sporty), then I got a hand me down car from my sister..a nice 4 door 1994 geo prizm, and now I have my CL-S. I find myself driving a lot more now!!

Oops! Forgot about my previous rides!
Got the CL-S on January 24, 2001, my birthday!
Before that...
2000 Honda S2000, white, bought new on December 1, 1999. Sold back to the dealer after a laundry list of problems destroyed my enthusiasm. Kept it for 1 year, 1 month, 23 days and 13k miles. It was also borderline too small for me, and wasn't a good daily driver for my lifestyle.
Before that...
1996 Honda Prelude VTEC (SRV to you Canadians!) bought new on July 10, 1996, azure blue-green pearl. Traded for the S2000. LOVED THIS CAR! Should have never traded it.
Before that...
1987 Honda CRX HF, Silver/gray, acquired in August, 1992, my first car. Gift from parents for High School graduation. Traded for the Prelude.

94' BMW 540. Extended warranty was about to run out and I could see a pattern forming of having expensive repairs every 6mos. So I threw in the towel and went back to Japanese cars. Cl was the only one out there that sparked an interest and was in my price range.

I had a '98 Integra Type R. I spent way too much money on it and sold it for $24,200. I actually didn't even want to drive it anymore (Too expensive to fix). I am glad with my choice as the CL-S.

First car my parents let me drive was a
1983 Chevy Celebrity 2.8L V6
After my Mom traded that in for a Corolla I drove the
1985 Olds Cutlass Supreme Braghm V6 (I think it was a 3.5L)
After that car started burning oil on the engine block thus making it hazardous to drive I inherited my Dad's
1994 Eagle Vision ESi (3.3L V6 I think)
After having the transmission rebuilt at 55k miles I decided to buy my current car.
