Who likes RED
As in San MArino red Cls'? Anyone with one get a lot of cop attention? It seems cooler than arrest me red but the way I drive, I think I'd be emailing from San Quentin.

I have red one ...and I love it...with black leather looks awesome I don’t like tan leather.
Plus 20% tint looks good.
There are a lot of red cars out some look like fire engine red(sucks) but cl red is different. No popos problem KNOCK ON WOOD!!!
Just don’t fly and it will be fine.
But it’s a classic combo red and black.
All red cl owners do you like 03 tails better? I kidna like both. Don’t know if I should get 03 lights.
With 01-02 tails it all looks red so it matches but 03 kidna gives it fresh look.

Nothing shines quite like black, especially with blue sparkles in it

Blackbird baby..
Red looks nice, def. But 2 words: cop magnet. I got 4+ tickets in a couple years in a red car.. no more red for me.
also red tends to fade faster.. but they still look nice. Def eye-catching.

I've got red. Maybe the next car will be blue
(which was my second choice for a CLS color).I've always wanted a red w/ parchment sports car, and since this was my first new car purchase, I got exactly what I wanted.
As for cops, I have a heavy foot, but haven't been pulled over yet
(knock on wood).

When we where at WCM2 this last Sept, Redrider ran into some popo's. He was just crusing.

I've been toying with the idea of modding it, but I've been leaning towards keeping it stock.
I have thought of pulling a "Chaptorial" (your post )and driving my car down to PAA to have them do about the same mods you just got done, but I'm not sure if I want to make that kind of investment in my CLS yet.

Red since 04/00. After charcoal gray and gold metallic, I was ready for something you can spot when parking at the mall among the sea of silver. Only ticket was 12/02 in a trap where the color did not matter.
Truth be known, the dealer that gave me the best price at the time had only had two on the lot, my red one and a pimp gold, so that was an easy choice.

I like the red, but for me it wasnt aggressive enough of a red for the car. It doesnt have the depth that the black or aegean blue has either. Looks nice though.
