Vic got any real world performance gains on 0-60/100/200 and 1/4 mile etc?

Would like to see what just an ECU tune can do.

Nobody will be having any issues with these tunes.... Any of them. My GTS is going in for Eurocharged tune this Thursday.

Just make sure you let your car properly break in, then modify it

No, I only went with the tune. I was one the early adopters last June and the DP's were just coming out. I did drive the shop car with DP's and whoaaa that's a spicy meatball!!!! But I'm good with the tune only as I want to get a white version of the car so no more money will be input. Its now possible to get the Edition 1 aero's and the fixed wing on a non ED1 car via an order or if the dealer builds it that way. I want white

B26 Package $2,850.
As a side note, I would be a bit POed if I had bought an Edition 1 because for MY2017 you can duplicate an Edition 1...

Ahi, Is this scheduled or voluntary maintenance ? What does it entail?

Sorry no part #'s but I saw the options on the build screens at the store.

We all knew this was coming- that's why ED1's held their value longer than expected. The one item I think can not be added is the carbon fiber roof.

I wonder if they will offer the Edition 1 scripted steering wheel too? I'm not going to feel very exclusive this year.

I hear you brother--- nothing lasts forever..

But a nice white AMG GTS mirroring the exterior of the Edition 1 could make me happy.

Are you saying that you can order the ED1 kit on its own? Can you actually buy each part separately? I would love to be able to only buy the front add on and not the back wing.

Yes the CF roof can be ordered but no pricing yet
