Famous 3.0 CSL owners

There are many details to dislike on that build, but an S38 coupled to a 4 gear automatic transmission just makes me cry...

Yeah, but as others have said, if you gotta live with LA traffic maybe the auto isn’t a bad idea?

Either way, I found a more recent and up-to-date list on this thread:

Peter Coomaraswamy

Thread 'I was thinking..'

Usually when I try to think nothing happens but in this case it's a very short thought; there are some pretty well known people (both famous and infamous) who have owned coupes. I'm not really an expert on this but I guess Mr. Heffner owned one, and a while back I saw a picture of Jerry Garcia's first/second wife "Mountain Girl" in her coupe, maybe we could start a section on famos coupe owners-past and present. I know when Drew gets his running we can include him in the list. Thoughts??

Don't get me wrong - I am absolutly open for automatic transmissions (the 5HP19 in a 330 is OK'ish with the Alpina flash, starting with the 8HPxx it becomes fun and a PDK is killer even on the track) - but my brain cannot align the characteristics of an S38 with a 4-gear automatic... Use the mighty low-rpm torque of the S38 for cruising? Maybe they completely changed the characteristics of engine and gearbox...
