Finally came to my senses...

Good choice in color This has been my favorite car of the many I have had over the years by far.

Thanks Roman... I'm thinking it'll be mine as well I had 2 E-Class's ( a Black 97' E420 w/ Brabus wheels, then a new Silver '04 E320 w /Brabus wheels ) before this. While they're really beautiful styling wise / to cruise on the freeway, they def don't evoke the feelings that this thing does !

Here's the pix !!!!

Very nice

[MTHEORY]

Nice car. I like your color choice

Give a thought to the ESS DME mod, it really makes a difference.

Ask Roman about it.

Also, get yourself a Valentine 1 hardwire setup, you're gonna need it!

Congrats on the new toy

[bkz4mc]

Muahahahaha... Thanks guys

Yeah, I think my first perf mods are gonna be the CDV delete, an intake ( I'd really like a Gruppe M, but what do U guys think ? I know it's $$$ but it looks / sounds so sweet !!! ) a 3.91 Rear Diff and the ESS Software.

I raced a M6 this afternoon on a short stretch and he pulled me a bit ( he took a flying start the puss ).... I need that CFR 500 Roman... Arrrgggggg !!!!! hahahaha... I wish.

V1... I know... Def gonna need one of those too ! So let's see here... Wheels / tires.... intake... diff.... Software = Empty bank account & divorce !!!! hahahaha

-There are no intakes that show decent independently-proven power (except arguably Injen's). The RPI scoop does, and is worth doing regardless of your choice of software. Don't forget the skid plates too.

Stunning car.

The rear M badge looks like it has been placed in the wrong position, this could indicate the car had a prang on the boot lid?

Yeah.... I've read up on it all that the intake doesn't do anything really without the software update. It's just more for sound / ( looks for the gruppe M ) over the RPI. I'm gonna shoot ya a mail right now Earl

As far as the M badge on the back... I moved it over there because it's weird to me how they put it off in the middle of the panel like that. A couple other guys have done it as well... makes it look cleaner I think

I see you live in Irvine. How do you feel about this car as a daily driver? Assuming it is your daily driver... I'm about to move to L.A. and all my friends are teasing me that I am going to hate the impracticality of this car out there...

[bkz4mc]

If you're a single guy ( I'm recently married but I have a Tacoma as well ) I see no problem with it. I wish I woulda got this over my last E Class when I was still single ! Just depends if you have a bunch of friends that U always go out with... Even then, everyone around here really drives separately to places anyway. Just watch Swingers for proof... hahahaha

I've only had it a week... but driving it everyday is a treat over anything else I've ever had.

That M badge placement is very interesting. Personally i would have kept it where it was or de-badge. But to each their own i guess.
