Cl 65 Sighting

I love in a small city of 350 000+ people north of Toronto Ontario, and have never seen a mercedes better than an S600. The most expensive car i ever saw here was a 95 bentley, in liek 97. Yesterday i saw a beast i never thought i'd ever see. I was with mom going to her business, and in the industrial section of the city, we saw a CL65 going southbound stopped at lights. It had a dark tint, i noticed it from the black rims. as soon as i saw those i looked at the front fender and saw V12 bi-turbo, looked at the rear badges CL65 ///AMG, and to top it off this guy had it dropped an inch, and quad exhaust coming out of the rear side fenders, 2 exhaust pipes on each side

Last summer, I spent a week in Montreal. While exploring the city and its intersesting nightlife for, I came across many exotic cars including a 575 Maranello, several 360 spyders, a Gallardo, Diablo, and a Gemballa Porsche.
Also saw a Silver SL500 and a Black SL55 with a tuned exhaust. (Not all in one night, over the course of my stay. )

This is my first post on this forum. Today I talked with a lady over at a grocery store here in town. She was driving her S500 but we talked about her CL65 which I've seen before. Somehow she's convinced it's the fastest production car of all time, she's sadly mistaken but won't believe me that it's nowhere near. I've also seen many Bentleys, Rolls Royce's, a Aston Martin DB9, several Lamborghini's, Ferarri's, SL55's, an SL65, a Mc-Merc SLR! and more. All while working at this grocery store. Today was my last day there, but I've enjoyed having a job where 50% of the time's spent in a parking lot.

Your worst nightmare...
I see a CL65 in black every morning, kind of inspires me to go to work, lol!. It's situated around the corner of my house. The guy owns an ACE hardware and lumber yard, he parks his car right accross the street in a small garage. The car is just simply amazing to look at.

The highest up the Mercedes-Benz line that I've seen is the 600s and 55s. I wish there were more 65s to look at! Atlanta is suppose to be a rich area!

I had a CL65 pull in front of my E55 across an intersection in Dunwoody and it actually barked like a Rottweiler as it took off. It was somewhat frightening

I was at the dealer, and this guy comes in for service with his CL. It says "CL65" on the back of the car, parked within viewing distance of all three of us. The service advisor asks him what the car is, and he says "CL65".... then he looks at me, looks back at the advisor, and says "no, I'm sorry.... its a CL500".

I think he figured out that he better at least tell the truth where he is getting his car serviced, despite what his badge on the back said.

What a loser... I started laughing... and he was at least in his late 40's...
