Thanks
Power remained the same, if anything became more responsive and pulled slightly better up top and down low.

Hey Jody,
I say just keep the car if you are selling it at that price!! That is just insane to sell a 2005 CL65 in great condition for so cheap. You are literally giving the car away. You will have sellers remorse. Just keep it and get a cheap SUV for the baby. You will miss the car and really kick yourself after taking such a hit in depreciation.

I just spoke with Todd at Chrysler Warranty. Do you agree this is the best warranty for our cars. My warranty is up in Jan 2010 and I plan to keep my car so I need protection. Let me know your thought.

Good luck with your car. I hope you keep it!

Larry

Jody you're only playing yourself here my friend. Don't sell the car for that price. Buy yourself a used BMW X5 and that's all the 4 doors that you'll ever need.

Yup, She is back to stock, with the exception of Electronic cut outs and catless. Everything else is stock (ECU and IC's)
