I paid about 27k out the door from the dealer in Texas. Now I have to pay sales tax when I register it . Oh well, the car is totally worth it.

Tailight tinting? How did you go about that? It does look good on the black though. How about a pic with your brake lights on?

I'll get a picture later with the brake lights on. The light shines through fine. I bought some "transparent black" spray window tint at an r/c car shop. I also bought two cans of clear coat. It all cost me about $19.

Oh well, a year is good enough for me. I want the W220 style LED taillights sooner or later.

One is a valet key. Speaking of that, what does the valet key do? Speed and function limiter or something?

For those interested in smoked lights they should try this web site: www.smokedlamps.com. A member of this forum just recently bought a par of smoked tail lamps for his CLS55 AMG
