There's a reason why mine is still stock... Great daily driver, but if I want a sportscar, I'll buy one instead of trying to make one...

don't knock the fun potential of a heavily modded cl-s.


although my legacy is more fun 90% of the time and it's bone stock. won't be bone stock by the end of today though.

while yes, it can be fun, it'll never be what Bill is looking for

and hence, why most of the big dogs have ditched them for sportier rides

I'm sure it's fun... Heck, my stock cls 6spd is tons of fun.

I'm just of the opinion that fwd isn't the optimum performance platform

You legacy is AWD, isn't it ?? (and more fun 90% of the time)
