I'm selling my Koni's and Comptech springs to Crippen
I have the Zeals already, they got here more than a month ago...but because endless didn't properly research them b4 they made them, the bolts to mount the tops of them are 10mm too close together, so I'm still waiting for the right top pieces to be sent to me...

Sounds like you are the guinea pig on the Zeal coils. Endless should give you a discount on your coils because you did some R&D work for them

Looks nice. Out of curiosity, what is it you like A LOT better than your CL-S. 4 doors? Better build? New car smell?

Lightbulb

the cabin is quieter, the back seat fits 3, and there are 4 windows to open

and I can picture it being a much nicer show car than the CL-S...

Enjoy and good luck with it! I myself never even thought about the CL-S. My friend mentioned it after I got my TL-S and then and only then did I realize that it never even crossed my mind. Aside from all the stuff you mentioned, I love the front end waaaay better than the CL. Just my opinion.

tuff,

I thought the front for the CL-S and the TL-S are basically the same except the head lights. Maybe you can point out some other distint features that I missed. Cuz when I see a CL-S creeping up in my rear view mirror, sometimes I mistaken it for a TL-S until I see the rear (i.e. round ass).

the TL-S has real fogs as well as the little slots on the bottom of the front air damn....and yes the headlights are different....but moreso the whole front end is a different shape...the CL is more pointy...the TL is less so...
