I have noticed very few people getting this option. With the 55 model and all the torque, I thought this would almost be required to be able to get all that torque to the pavement.

To those who have it, is the ride harsher than the normal CLS55? Is there better traction on the launch? Is the exhaust sound the same?

Thanks

Its a whole different car...... especially with the K2!!!

 

I truly appreciate the 030 option on my CLS each time I drive it given the power of K4.

Exhaust remains stock.
Bigger and better brakes
stiffer and lowered suspension, not harsh at all
corners like its on rails
LSD is phenomenal
wheels are fantastic

What more need I say. Its well worth the 10K sticker price since its all under warranty.

 

How does the ride feel? Does it feel firmer?

 

Are you sure about a stiffer and lowered suspension?

I compared my CLS to a friends CLS, both 55's of course, and mine is lower in fact. I would say its about an inch lower or right about there. The suspension feels tighter and more responsive as well.
