Well I finally got the right price from the dealer and got a pre owned 63 with 4k on it. Silver with ash gray interior p2 package and distronic?.

I am going to get the windows tinted next, and was wondering about radar dectors/jammers?

Any suggestions on what brand ? I am looking for the one thats gives me front and rear protection, thinking a hard install. One of the questions I had was will a radar dector affect the distronic? or the distronic affect the radar dector?

Also any simple performace upgrades for this car?

Anyone installed a clear bra on the front?

Anyone know of a local place in Tampa to install the clear bra?


Thanks

congrats on your purchase:

go with Valentine1

Escort SRX. Have it in 2 of my cars. HIghly sophisticated, includes LIDAR jammers; has 2 sensors in front of car, 1 in the rear. Escort does not sell this retail; only custom installed, costs $1800 +/- installed. Check it out on escort's website alongw/ the tests of competitive units. Depends upon what you are looking for and, as in all things, you get what you pay for.

whoa!... $1800 pays for a lot of speeding tickets. Heck, if you're in California, buy a 11-99 membership for $1800, get a get-out-of-a-ticket package for life, gets tax donation write-off, and helps someone in the process.

I already started to look into that. I might do a chrome rim or maybe black. I got to figure out what looks good with the shape and silver paint. What are the used amg rims worth? If I can get a decent amout of money then I may sell them if not I will just add it to my collection.

I saw where people were removing the charcoal filter, what was the reason for AMG putting it there in the first place?
