lots of people have told me that an estate looks much more interesting than a saloon is going to look.. but I'm sure, the actual car will change everybody's mind when it is done!

After a long argument we decided to go for math siver as long as the car was born silver and I had no intention of ruining its aura and remaking all the papers..)

I'm assuming math silver is flat silver, looks awesome. Can't wait to see it all put together. Did you ever figure out how you were going to do the rear diffuser? Looks like you are going to keep the the roof in carbon fiber. This is the best 202 build I have ever seen.

I'm assuming that widebody kit is custom-made.

How much did it cost you?

+ 3 but have doubts on the AMG badge at the top. Otherwise great build and keep the info and progress reports coming. I feel that this 43 will make a 63 look tame in comparison

Let me remind you at this point that our engine is an m113.980 5,5 liter highly tuned unit, so we are looking forward to achieving around 500 naturally aspirated HPs and getting from 0 to 60 in just under 4 seconds..) Therefore I don't think it's worth bringing around c63,.))
