So I saw my old TSX in a banner ad from Hall Nissan on this site. Connor sent me a text. Saw the plasti-dipped grille and was thinking, maybe I should call them and tell them it can be peeled off. Then I thought better of it. They did what they could to rip me off. I'll return the favor.

I've got to say the CLA does look amazing. I wouldn't mind giving the AMG version a go when it comes out

Something looks off about the CLA to me. Not really feeling the front end. I want to like it though. Maybe the angle is just weird in the opening part of the video.

love you dave, but you absolutely dont need those.

chances are you're more likely to cause an accident with the confusion you'll be causing retardedly driving down the road in a tsx with flashers

Actually people yield to me with no issue, I'm sure they are staring at how sexy the car is as I fly by though. All that matters is flashy lights and a loud siren. Do you care if you have a Tahoe, crown Vic, ford explorer, Durango, suburban, or a ford Taurus that's pulling you over? Cause thats just half of the type of cars we have here that are part of the police forces daily units lmao

Dave, how do other officers know you are using your lights/siren legally? What stops them from seeing you drive by with them on and thinking "whats this jackass civilian doing with flashing lights on his car", and then trying to pull you over? Or any unmarked car in this situation?

Not to mention that the CLA AMG has the most powerful 4 cylinder motor ever made in a production vehicle.

majority of the cops in the areas i am responding to and through know me and my vehicle, they know each others police forces, they may follow and even pull you over if they want to, and we will stop. we will show badge and ID, and they will say ok good going. for the most part, they trust that we are not abusing the system. if they see you using lights and you randomly turn them off, they very well may stop you and ask why they were on. its happened to my partner. stopped while running lights and siren, they pulled up next to him, pulled over, flashed badge and kept going. in other words, nothing stops them, if it is suspicious, they'll stop you. dispatch knows whats going on in surrounding towns, PD will call in and ask if there is a call somewhere nearby. yes, ok hopefully its right

volunteer emt in a already populated area. chances are that if theres an emergency and youre not in your ambulance then someone else is in that ambulance who is better equipped than you are and in the proper vehicle to respond to such an emergency

sorry joe i love you and all but flashers in a civilian vehicle like this are completely unnecessary.

its obnoxious, self inflating, and just shows a warped sense of self importance that i fear already runs rampant in the medical community

Not to mention it will also produce better MPG numbers than the TSX.
