Congrats, please change those rims out. Ross told me about you. How was the drive back? It's a 6 speed SMR/Ebony. HAWT

the drive back home was something else. 23 hours, 10 cans of redbull and 2 speeding tickets. ross (cltypeslow) came along for the fun. the car background; single owner, currently 20,600 miles, i got it in ohio with 19,051 miles, has been very well maintained and loved. the plate was the previous owners and he gets to keep it (Ohio does things different than TX), it will have random numbered TX plates on it soon. here are some pictures from the adventure.
yes....6spd

lake view

crazy old drivers

no thanks out to Ohio and Illinois, $205 total

endless corn fields

no sh*t!!!

18wheeler

nice ride, and nice plates, too bad you dont get to keep them but that's probably why you got pulled over (red car w/custom plates)!

Sweet ride. 2 speeding tickets already. I'm guessing and hoping that those states don't report back to TX.

gorgeous, red was my original choice, but I had to settle for silver. Glad to see some guys are still buying CL's.

LMAO @ the old lady! That just cracks me up for some reason. And props for getting the semi truck wheel shot; I've ALWAYS wanted to be able to capture one of those shots. The car is beautiful. Six-speeders for life! Take it easy.

my other car is laser red and during my cl search i wasn't all for getting another red car. after months of searching for an 03 cl-s 6spd (extemely hard to find with lower miles) i found this one and was advised that the red would be a good choice. must admit... i love it and it stands out nicely
