New addition to the MB family....

Pops just picked up a 2012 Designo Graphite CLS550 today. Car has some great power, lots of torque down low.
Sounds awesome during cold starts as well, you can hear the turbo spool.

Some pics....

I think an OEM spoiler is the farthest he'll go as far as modding.
If it were mine Id go with a Catless down pipes + resonator delete, OE ECU tune, lowering links and some nice 20's.

Tried to convince him to get a CLS63 but said he doesn't need all that power.

2012 C63 AMG Black Series
This is the exact car my dad is about to order too! Im trying to push him into an AMG but after driving mine he thinks AMGs are ridiculous LOL.

I love the paint on that CLS! Too bad it would be tough to colour match the side markers.

Nice!!
+1 on the color matching.
Trying to find him a OEM CLS spoiler, but that would be hard to color match also.

as much as those cars are monsters , i can't get over the taillights . i don't like taillights that wrap around to the side of the vehicle farther than the headlights . if the taillights were clear , you wouldn't be able to tell if the car was coming or going . maybe i'm just but that's IMO .

Lol I know what you mean. At first when these cars first came out I hated the tail lights, but after a while it grows on you.
