beautiful!
Though I'm not sure about the two tone CL, it may look nice on a Bugatti Veyron, but I'd rather have that beautiful burgundy color on the entire car and lose the wierd chrome trim on the lower bumper. That would be perfect!

The CL pic reminded me of the Veyron immediately... not only because of the two-tone, but also because of the colour combo. Carlsson must have picked it on purpose.

Love the 5-spoke rims on the C.

And I'd pay to have them come wax my car every week!

Reason I found some pics of the w204 is because I was looking for the new M3 Ericsson pics. I miss my M3 and now considering going back to the M3 with the new tuning/bodykits that's being done on the car.

They look exactly like Hamann HM2 rims I was considering on my M3. They look real nice on the w204s.
