Yah, I thought about doing all the crazy mods too. Swap, Kleemann supercharger kit to make my car a true C32, or just leaving it stock. I'm gonna keep it as stock as I can and make room in my garage for a E63 lol. I almost had a spot for an E350 before but the dang thing didn't fit in my garage. lol.

That's a good price. Also keep in mind the gas. It's not that horrible but If you are going to drive like a maniac definitely need to fill up more than the 230

My friend has an 03 CL600 BiTurbo and driving that thing is soo fun. You really get stuck to the seat!!

Wow check this out.

Kleemann can turn the CL600 BiTurbo into 690hp. Talk about a monster
A sophisticated engine management system upgrade. Up to 690 HP and 1100 Nm (815 lb-ft) of torque.

Don't know price but you can contact them. Kleemann is a well known company and probably the best that offers tunes for Benzes IMO.

The CL63 is more balanced but its pretty expensive now.

I agree the BiTurbo V12's are great engines, but from a article in caranddriver the headlights and a number of other parts including costly airsuspension components are known to go bad.
