'03 New to me CLK55

Just picked up a 2003 CLK55 AMG with 61000 miles on it. I have been a member of the board for a while because of the C32 I owned previously. Looking forward to toying around with this one, although there dont seem to be as many modification options as the supercharged motor. Pics I snapped out in front of the house, not professional grade plus my daughter got a little crazy with the sidewalk chalk but I had to show it off a little.

What ECU tune do you have?

I wouldnt really say its faster than my C32 was. Stock for stock maybe, but the forced induction gave it that seat-of-the-pants punch that you dont really get with an N/A motor. Plus I had modified my C32. Both are exceptional cars though so its not an easy comparison to make.
