Dude that thing is freakin HOT!! Last time I was at the dealer, they had one right as you came in the door. Very sweet! One of the patients at the dental office where I work has a CL600 I get to see every few months. Only ever seen one CL65 on the road, and that was in the parking lot at our Home Depot of all places. Congrats dude. Enjoy!

Looks AWESOME! One thing though....that's an aftermarket grille, correct? I personally am not to keen on the star with the plastic in front of it. just my opinion.

LOL, yes it is distronic.

I do agree with you NO_WUR_E, i'm not a fan of the sensor placed in the star, but I must say that they did blend it in well.
