Found my Totaled CL :(

Well, at this point I’ve bought a 2005 RL, but I found my totaled CL that’s apparently going up for auction soon.. I hate that insurance gave me barely anything, but I still miss this car..

Did you hit a person?

i've only seen smashed windshields like that in the movies where a person was hit.

Thank god no, I hydroplaned around a turn, overcorrected, slammed it up on a curb, and hit a street sign. The breakaway base on the sign caused it to flip down and slam into the windshield. Thankfully I was unharmed, no takata airbags, and the sign didn’t go through the windshield...

Mainly the manual transmission and gas mileage haha it was only a 2.3, but the RL does have some nice features. And twice the HP haha

I would think the RL is the better car, all around, minus the manny tanny.
congrats on staying in the family!
