Spotted a Black Modded C230 Coupe In Beverly Hills

I was on Rodeo drive right next to Santa Monica Boulevard. And to my pleasure came rolling down the street a Black c230 coupe. As it got closer i noticed that it was riding a lot lower, and then i noticed the very nice rims. And after it passed me i saw and heard the very nice exhaust, i'm guessing it was an eisenmann. Driver was an asian man in his 30's? (i'm guessing from a quick view so dun be mad). Was wondering if you were on this forum to let you know you have a verrry nice ride

It drove by quickly, didn't have time to check out the details. But it's very possible that it did. Looked like a SL from far away.
On another note, right after i saw a AC Shnitzer tuned m3 that looked absolutely gorgeous, too bad the guy was just looking for a parking spot, so i couldn't check out the exhaust note :v .

Beverly Hills' Rodeo Drive

My wife and I were at the Beverly Hills Hotel last weekend. On our sojourn to Rodeo Drive we saw too many Rolls and Bentleys to count (not as many as Hong Kong, but a goodly bunch). SL500s and SL55s were all over the place like locusts. In fact AMG anything seemed to be the car of choice. But BMWs, Aston Martins and a few choice Ferraris were also on the Drive. There was a Lambo next to the curb that was getting lots of attention. Finally saw a beautiful Black SL65 at the Armani store that was quickly replaced by a Ferrari 430 Spyder! For a “gear head” like me, it was a GREAT weekend!

SPOTTED: White Brabus w203 in my area (L.A.)

What's up everybody! Since we don't have a "spotted" thread, I just wanted to see if this person is on these boards.

It's a White C Class w/ Brabus kit and Rear Brabus (word) emblem (Not the symbol), as well as Brabus exhaust and tinted windows. It has New Jersey plates (starting with PEM), but drives by my house almost every morning. Car was debadged (except for the BRABUS and Benz Logo), so couldn't tell which version.

This morning, I was driving right behind you on Roscomare Rd. going from the Valley to Westwood. Tried to get your attention when you were passing by me, but you didn't look.

Have a good day everybody. Gotta get to business now.

John, I was thinking the same thing when I was starting this thread...Well, no worries, my friend...In a few days, I should have 2 that I will be able to carry with me everywhere and use (Sony DSC-T1 and T7). One will be for my parents, so I'll primarily have the T7 with me all the time (with it being the size of a credit card, no reason for me not to).

So, at least there's good news from this

That is a pretty good camera from what I hear. You will be a photo-bug in no time at all.

Hopefully, I'll be able to catch a pic of this guy's car when I finally get the digi-cam. Can't wait! The car is pretty nice and exhaust sounds nice and deep. Just never could catch the guy at the right time.

What do you think? Every modified benz you see goes to this forum?

What if he was a racist? not a racer

Better stop getting other people's attention before you get in trouble!

In New Jersey this is what we do to people who gets our attention:
