My new ride... VQ but not that one

Well, the CL is about to be for sale... picked up a new FX last week and it is freaking awesome, still haven't gotten the full break-in mileage over but the engine is strong...

Completely different car than the cl obviously, but it handles like a dream whether it is a car or suv or crossover or whatever (ironically better than the cl so far, but it is awd), I think I still like the way the CL pulls better, and it gets shitty gas mileage, but it still feels

I didn't know you were selling the CL. Good luck with the new FX

I really love the FX, however it seemed a little cramped on the interior when I looked at one, and I couldn't find a comfortable driving position to save my life..........


Other than that, sweet

Very nice man. Best of luck with it.

I know the sport package gets you the 20" rims, but what size is stock on the FX35?

yeah 18's, i didnt have the bling for the 45 package and from reading about it online a lot of people said not to get the 20's with the sport package on the 35 because the ride is too harsh...

and it took me a while to get a comfortable position sitting at the dealer, but i finally figured out the seat could be lowered a lot, and then my large ass fit fine

and gracias

yeah it is, already washed it twice in a week, got told not to get black, but black on black was better than doo doo brown or burnt orange that they offer, and the laser red one i wanted supposedly had paint chip problems (nothing official but they discontinued the color for 05 so...)

gotta love forums for research before buying, i'll never buy any car without looking it up from real owners again
